đš BREAKING: QUANTUM THREAT TO BITCOIN IS OVERSTATED â Only ~10,200 BTC at Risk, Says CoinShares âĄïžđ
A new report from CoinShares downplays recent fears that quantum computers could soon crack Bitcoinâs cryptography. According to the research:
đč Only ~10,200 BTC (a tiny fraction of total BTC supply) is realistically at risk from quantum attacks
đč Breaking Bitcoin would require quantum machines ~100,000Ă more powerful than what exists today
đč Such capabilities are likely a decade or more away, not imminent
This confirms what many cryptographers have been saying: quantum risk exists, but itâs massively overstated in headlines.

đ§ Why This Matters
đ Bitcoinâs Security Is Still Extremely Strong
Bitcoinâs cryptographic foundations (ECDSA & SHA-256) were not designed to be broken by current quantum hardware. The theoretical quantum risk exists, but only with machines far beyond current technology.
đ Only a Small Amount of BTC Is Truly Vulnerable
The CoinShares report estimates that only ~10,200 BTC would be exposed if quantum attacks were possible today â less than 0.05% of total Bitcoin supply.
âł Quantum Breakthroughs Are Years Away
Experts believe practical quantum hardware capable of attacking Bitcoin securely is likely 10+ years away, giving developers plenty of time to upgrade protocols if needed.

đ Market Impact
â FUD Neutralized: Traders often panic when quantum risk is mentioned. This update should calm markets.
â Bullish for Long-Term Holders: Security concerns receding means confidence stays high.
â Tech Still Relevant: Developers and projects will continue researching quantum-safe cryptography â but this isnât urgent panic territory.
