Nine crypto firms form Quantum Alliance to tackle blockchain security risks from exposed Bitcoin keys.

Nine crypto companies have created the Quantum Alliance to set shared security standards for blockchain networks, addressing risks from exposed public keys linked to 6.04 million Bitcoin, about 30.2% of total supply. Although current quantum computers cannot exploit these keys, future advancements could pose threats. The alliance aims to develop security tests and migration guidance for major networks like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Experts debate the full scope of exposure and the best response, with some suggesting moving vulnerable coins and others advocating for governance-led decisions on freezing assets.

The formation of the Quantum Alliance by nine crypto firms to address Bitcoin's exposed keys is notable. For readers following major cryptocurrencies, here is Pluang's market snapshot as of Oct 17, 2026 03:41 WIB: out of 50 major cryptocurrencies, 8 rose and 41 fell today.
