A new Bitcoin proposal aims to freeze coins secured by legacy cryptography to protect against future quantum computer threats.
The proposal, co-authored by Jameson Lopp, outlines a phased approach to transition Bitcoin to quantum-resistant formats.
Researchers warn that quantum computers capable of breaking Bitcoin's encryption could emerge by 2027, posing a significant threat to the cryptocurrency's security.
