StarkWare has reduced the cost of a quantum-resistant Bitcoin transaction from $320 to $66 through AI-assisted coding and an open competition, increasing processing speed nearly sixfold. This method works within Bitcoin's existing framework without needing network consensus, serving as a stopgap to protect high-value assets against potential quantum computer attacks. While still costly for everyday use and limited by some technical constraints, this breakthrough highlights rapid innovation in blockchain security and the potential for faster cryptographic development. Further testing on the Bitcoin mainnet is needed before wide adoption.
