🔥 Paradigm partner proposes the PACTs plan: Satoshi-era holders can prove control without moving BTC
On May 2, concerns about Bitcoin quantum computing gave rise to the “Satoshi dilemma.” If quantum computers become powerful enough, millions of bitcoins in old wallets with exposed public keys could be stolen, including about 1.1 million BTC belonging to Satoshi (worth approximately $84 billion). In mid-April, six developers including Jameson Lopp proposed BIP-361 to gradually phase out addresses vulnerable to quantum attacks over five years and freeze coins that were not migrated. However, this proposal forces Satoshi and long-dormant holders to appear publicly. On Friday, Paradigm general partner Dan Robinson published the proposal, introducing “Proven Address Control Timestamps” (PACTs): no need to move coins—just append a timestamp to prove ownership on a specific date, without revealing information before spending. If a soft fork to freeze coins vulnerable to attacks is enabled, the protocol can include a rescue path accepting STARK proofs (quantum-resistant zero-knowledge proofs), demonstrating that the holder created the commitment before quantum hardware existed. When holders spend, they submit proofs, and the network releases coins without revealing the address, amount, or the timestamp creation time.
