Hey guys, just a heads-up about something we should all keep on our radar: quantum computers. They’re not a threat to Bitcoin yet, but once they’re powerful enough, they could break ECDSA (the cryptography behind our private keys) and weaken SHA-256.
Here’s how we can prepare:
• Use P2PKH addresses and avoid reusing addresses (keep your public keys private until you spend).
• Stay updated on Bitcoin devs working on quantum-resistant solutions.
• Start the conversation now about future-proofing Bitcoin before it’s too late.
