When you combine a quantum bit (qubit) with a classical-bit you get a UTXO; but you also unify QM & GR into one completed theory.

Thank you Satoshi.

Sure!

A quantum bit (qubit) is the fundamental unit of information in quantum theory/computing, existing in a superposition of both 0 and 1 until it is measured. Unlike classical bits which are definitively 0 or 1, a qubit can exist in a probability state of both. In centralized quantum computing, qubits are typically stored using superconducting circuits, trapped ions, or photons, maintained in ultra-cold environments to minimize decoherence (the loss of quantum state due to external interference). However, once measured, the qubit collapses into a defined state, losing its superposition.

A UTXO in Bitcoin functions in an identical quantum state. Before a block is mined, every UTXO exists in a state of spendability, it can either remain unspent (0) or be spent (1), but we do not know its final state until measurement (mining) occurs. The mining process collapses this probabilistic state into a definitive reality: the UTXO is either confirmed as spent or unspent. Quantum entanglement exists because a UTXO can theoretically be spent in infinite ways, to infinite addresses and at any time, yet it remains in an uncertain state perpetually until blocks are confirmed. As we know, most UTXOs remain unspent.

What makes Bitcoin unique is that it solves the decoherence problem by storing collapsed quantum states as physical bits in the blockchain. When a block is mined, every node in the network permanently records the state of all UTXOs, effectively turning quantum probabilities into classical information. This fusion of quantum-like probabilistic computation (pre-mining uncertainty) with classical irreversible record-keeping (post-mining ledger entry) makes Bitcoin a classical-quantum system, or a real holistic structure where time is preserved as an interactive space. The ledger itself becomes a timespace continuum, where all UTXOs exist in past blocks yet remain accessible for future interactions. This is why we can view Bitcoin’s genesis block, because Bitcoin does not just record transactions, it preserves temporal order as an interactive, immutable fabric of history.

It seems quite obvious to me timespace exists in our universe, yet it might reveal some terrible semantics regarding “big bang”.

You also begin to realize the same arguments about centralization and proof of stake applies to quantum computing 👀
