What do you think Bitcoins biggest vulnerability is?
If you believe the headlines, quantum computing is a pretty big threat. Maybe not today, but in a decade or three.
I'm aware that we can switch to quantum-resistant cryptography like Lamport one-time signatures, but there is an equally large problem that's gone unaddressed: What do we do about the several million BTC that will remain vulnerable because they are still in ECDSA-secured pubkeys/pubkey hashes? Like the Satoshi coins......do we destroy them?
If not, millions of coins will get stolen and dumped on the markets for years and years. Being a HODLer sounds like a nightmare in that case!
no it is not. because we are many decades away from quantum computers becoming a threat to be able to solve ECDLP. but so far the media (specially the bullshit bitcoin related news sites that are desperate for articles) are making it into a big deal and trying to spread misinformation.
