Stanford cryptographer Dan Boneh advises Bitcoin to start preparing for quantum computing risks but warns against rushing the transition to post-quantum security, as a hasty migration could cause catastrophic bugs worse than the threat of quantum attacks. This caution follows a March 2026 Google Quantum AI whitepaper estimating that breaking Bitcoin's secp256k1 encryption might be feasible with a sufficiently powerful quantum computer in the future. Boneh suggests a gradual, well-designed migration using hybrid signatures and lattice-based cryptography to ensure security without risking system failures. The debate continues on timing and methods, with proposals like BIP 361 aiming to phase out vulnerable legacy signatures over time.
