The computing cost to prepare an experimental Quantum-Safe Bitcoin (QSB) transaction has decreased by 79%, falling from about $320 to $66. This reduction follows a weeklong optimization challenge by StarkWare, Yukon Research, and Eigen Labs, which improved the software used for QSB transactions. QSB is designed to protect Bitcoin against quantum attacks without changing its consensus rules, though it remains costly and complex. A longer-term solution involving a soft fork is still considered for broader quantum threat protection.
