Casa's CTO and a team of developers aim to phase out quantum-vulnerable addresses, potentially affecting 25% of Bitcoin holdings, including Satoshi Nakamoto's.
Jameson Lopp, CTO of Casa, has proposed a Bitcoin Improvement Proposal (BIP) to eliminate quantum-vulnerable address types, impacting about 25% of existing Bitcoin, including 1 million held by Satoshi Nakamoto. The initiative seeks to prohibit transfers to high-risk addresses and aims for the secure recovery of frozen assets within five years, addressing the economic threats posed by quantum attacks on Bitcoin.
