Analytics provider Glassnode identified 10% of Bitcoin supply as structurally exposed to a quantum breakthrough, underscoring the need for a quantum-proof implementation such as BIP-360.<\/p>\n
Nearly 10% of the total Bitcoin supply is considered \u201cstructurally unsafe\u201d due to a quantum computing breakthrough, as their output type reveals the public key by design, regardless of address management practices, according to data analytics platform Glassnode.<\/p>\n
Totaling about 1.92 million Bitcoin (BTC), the group includes BTC from early Satoshi-era Pay-to-Public-Key (P2PK) outputs, legacy multi-sig structures such as Pay-to-Multisig (P2MS) and modern Pay-to-Taproot (P2TR) outputs, which reveal the public key or public key-equivalent by design, wrote Glassnode in a Wednesday X post<\/a>.<\/p>\n Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto\u2019s coins represent about 1.1 million or 5.5% of the vulnerable supply, following another 620,000 Satoshi-era coins or 3.1% of the supply and about 200,000 coins or 1% of the supply in Taproot addresses.<\/p>\n Read more<\/p>\n<\/p>\n If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
