⚖️ EU Watchdogs Flag Quantum Risk to $586B in Bitcoin The Joint Committee of the European Supervisory Authorities has issued a formal warning: quantum computers capable of cracking blockchain encryption could arrive before the industry is ready — and before anyone's found a practical use for the machines beyond breaking things. The concern is concrete. Legacy Bitcoin addresses with exposed public keys are already theoretically vulnerable, and the warning reignites an active debate among Bitcoin developers over how — or whether — to protect them. $586B in BTC sits in the crosshairs if quantum decryption matures faster than post-quantum cryptography standards. The awkward truth: the threat may be real, but the timeline is anyone's guess. Source Trade on Binance
