Glassnode: Nearly $500 billion worth of Bitcoin faces future quantum computing attack risks
Glassnode research shows that currently, 6.04 million BTC have exposed public keys on the blockchain, accounting for approximately 30.2% of the total issued supply, theoretically posing a future risk of quantum computing attacks; 13.99 million BTC do not have exposed public keys. Exposure is divided into structural (1.92 million, 9.6%) and operational (4.12 million, 20.6%, mainly due to address reuse). Among operational exposure, exchange BTC accounts for 1.66 million, or 8.3% of the total supply, roughly 40% of all unsafe operational BTC. These results should not be interpreted as risk rankings or solvency signals for individual companies.
