$BTC Quantum security can be achieved today—each transaction just costs you $200👇


StarkWare's CPO Avihu Levy directly open-sourced a solution yesterday: Quantum Safe Bitcoin (QSB), which doesn't modify the protocol, doesn't require a soft fork, and doesn't need miner votes, running directly within existing rules.
The principle is to replace ECDSA signatures with hash-based proofs, as Shor's algorithm is essentially useless against hash functions.
It's truly secure, but the cost is also very high—each transaction requires GPU computing power of $75–$200.
By the way, Levy is also a co-author of BIP-360. He has developed an emergency plan himself because the path of BIP-360 is too slow—😂—it took seven and a half years from proposal to deployment for Taproot, and Polymarket now estimates less than a 20% chance of BIP-360 activating this year.
QSB is not the end goal; it’s an emergency gate for the day quantum computers actually arrive.
Don’t worry about the billion-dollar divorce gamble; look at this matter—if things go wrong, the impact could be on trillions of dollars.
