Muneeb Ali says Bitcoin has two years to start post-quantum upgrade
Original: Muneeb Ali says Bitcoin has about two years to start its post-quantum upgrade
Muneeb Ali, co-creator of the Stacks Bitcoin layer, warned that Bitcoin has roughly two years to begin its post-quantum upgrade. His argument is that quantum computing advances could eventually threaten Bitcoin's cryptographic signatures, and the network's slow, consensus-driven governance means preparations must start well before any real threat materialises. The comments add to an ongoing debate among developers and researchers over how urgently Bitcoin should adopt quantum-resistant cryptography.
Why now: Quantum computing progress is prompting renewed debate over whether Bitcoin's cryptography is at risk and how soon it must adapt.
