CZ urged not to panic over the quantum threat to cryptocurrencies According to him, blockchains will be able to transition to quantum-resistant encryption algorithms. However, such a transition will be complex: updates in decentralized networks are difficult to coordinate, which could lead to disputes or the emergence of forks. Some abandoned projects may not be updated at all, creating risks of bugs and vulnerabilities. Users who self-custody their crypto will need to transfer their funds to new wallets. Zhao also addressed the issue of “dormant” bitcoins, including coins believed to belong to Satoshi Nakamoto. In his view, if they remain inactive, the question may arise of freezing them so they don’t end up in the hands of whoever first manages to break the encryption.

Google analysts have urged a faster transition to post-quantum cryptography, as their new estimates suggest that fewer than 500,000 physical qubits would be needed to successfully break the security of Bitcoin or Ethereum — about 20 times lower than previous estimates.
