NaoX | Post-Quantum Chain (@NaoXprotocol): Bitcoin's genesis block was mined 17 years ago.

Estimated coin impact

Scores are not price-change percentages. High impact means a score of +70 or more, or -70 or less.

Bitcoin's genesis block was mined 17 years ago. Since then it has survived Mt. Gox, the block size wars, China's mining ban and the collapse of FTX. In 2026, the biggest threat to its existence is quantum computing. Word is spreading, and the conversation around it is heating up. This week, @VitalikButerin and @drakefjustin both advised holders to keep funds in addresses that have never signed a transaction. It isn't only Bitcoin. Every chain that signs with elliptic curves faces the same question. Bitcoin just has the most to lose, and no one in charge to decide. Freeze the coins, migrate voluntarily, slow the drain or launch lifeboats? Every option is on the table, and none of them is free. NaoX positioned itself for this from the first block. Transactions can be signed with NIST's post-quantum standard and validators have only ever used post-quantum keys, so this is one debate NaoX never has to have. Can Bitcoin & crypto survive quantum?
