A Massive Quantum Threat to the Bitcoin Network?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In a recent video addressed to Bitcoin<\/a> maximalists, Charles Hoskinson highlighted a critical vulnerability. According to him, as of March 1, 2026, over 34% of the total Bitcoin supply<\/strong> has had its public key exposed on the blockchain. This flaw primarily stems from address reuse or the use of legacy wallet formats (P2PK). This leaves approximately 8 million BTC<\/strong> at the mercy of a quantum attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
