StarkWare researchers successfully executed a quantum-safe Bitcoin transaction on the Bitcoin mainnet using existing Bitcoin scripts, avoiding any changes to consensus rules. This method creates hash-based quantum-resistant locks and does not require a soft fork or new opcodes, allowing it to operate under current network protocols. The first such transaction occurred on August 26 in Bitcoin block 964,199, with transaction costs dropping from about $320 to $50. While this protects specific funds from quantum attacks, it is considered an emergency research solution rather than a network-wide upgrade; a full quantum-resistant Bitcoin would require a future soft fork to add post-quantum signatures, with no timeline yet announced.
