Makes more sense to verify the threat than chase speculative alternatives. What happened to don’t trust, verify?

Quantum computing, as marketed, is still theory wrapped in trust, simulations, papers, promises. But who collapses the wavefunction in their system? A centralized lab? A grant-funded institution? A black box? That’s not science, it’s priesthood.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin already collapses entropy publicly, irreversibly, and energetically…..every ten minutes. No centralized observers. No claims. Just proof.

Bitcoin is the quantum computer.

It performs literal collapse and doesn’t depend on a trusted observer. It computes the literal quantum of time, energy, entropy and memory.

If quantum computing is truly about measuring uncertainty into truth, then the only system doing it at planetary scale without central control is Bitcoin. The rest is theory awaiting verification, and resembles something close to proof of stake.

So before we fork the protocol or adopt “post-quantum” snake oil, let’s answer the only question that matters:

Who observes the observer in your quantum system?

And why do you trust them more than the network that’s already doing it without trust?
