Strategy plans to launch a Bitcoin security initiative to address the quantum threat.

PANews reported on February 6th that, according to CryptoBriefing, Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor announced during the earnings call plans to launch a Bitcoin security initiative aimed at addressing quantum computing and other future security threats. This initiative will collaborate with the Global Cybersecurity, Cryptosecurity, and Bitcoin Security Council to coordinate related research and risk response.

Saylor stated that the current consensus is that the quantum threat is at least 10 years away from becoming apparent, and many global teams are already developing quantum-resistant protocols. He emphasized that Bitcoin is upgradeable, and if a quantum upgrade is needed in the future, its network will become more robust. However, he cautioned that addressing such risks requires timing; acting too early may result in immature technology, while acting too late could lead to unnecessary risks.
