Investment bank Bernstein forecasts Bitcoin rising to $150,000 by mid-2027 and $300,000 by 2029 due to debt crises and institutional demand. However, Charles Edwards warns this is only feasible if Bitcoin Core developers implement quantum-resistant cryptography to address security risks posed by quantum computing. This risk currently depresses Bitcoin's price by about 30%. Developers are discussing upgrades like BIP-360 and BIP-361 to protect against quantum threats, with support from initiatives like Galaxy Digital's $5 million Bitcoin Quantum Readiness fund.
