Bitcoin's 1.1M Satoshi coins face freeze risk amid quantum computing threats and BIP-361 proposal.

Approximately 1.1 million bitcoins attributed to Bitcoin's creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, valued at around $91 billion, are at the center of a debate due to their vulnerability to future quantum computer attacks. A Bitcoin Improvement Proposal (BIP-361) suggests freezing these coins to prevent theft once quantum-safe addresses are implemented, but this would lock Satoshi's coins permanently as no rescue method exists for the old address format. The proposal faces criticism for potentially violating Bitcoin's principle that no one can lock others' coins. Investors are advised to check their own bitcoin address formats and consider moving coins to quantum-safe addresses in the future.
