[CZ: If Satoshi Nakamoto's addresses remain unmoved long-term after Bitcoin's quantum upgrade, the related BTC should be frozen] BlockBeats News, June 20 — Binance founder CZ participated in the Galaxy Brains podcast for an exclusive interview with Galaxy Research Head Alex Thorn. CZ stated that quantum computing is not an unsolvable issue for Bitcoin, as quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms already exist; the key lies in community coordination for upgrades. Regarding Satoshi Nakamoto's BTC, CZ believes that 'doing nothing' is a poor choice. He suggested that if Bitcoin forks to a new cryptographic scheme in the future, the community could provide a 6 to 12-month time window. If these coins remain unmoved, the related addresses should be frozen under the new protocol, and approximately 1 million BTC should be removed from circulation. CZ argued that if no action is taken, these BTC would eventually fall into the hands of the first person capable of using a quantum computer to crack the addresses, which is not an ideal method of distribution. Ultimately, how to handle this should still be decided by community voting, potentially requiring the use of Bitcoin's signaling mechanisms to express consensus. If Satoshi Nakamoto's addresses show no activity, his suggestion is to freeze these addresses under the new protocol and remove the related BTC from circulation. [Original Link]
