CoinGuan News reports that Coin Bureau says Trump’s quantum executive order sets a deadline of 2030 for the crypto industry. The U.S. government now has until 2031 to migrate key systems to post-quantum security. Bitcoin ownership relies on cryptographic signatures, and powerful quantum computers could threaten this security in the future. A report warns that “Quantum Day” could arrive earlier in 2030, and if crypto fails to upgrade in time, as many as 7 million Bitcoins could be at risk.

Post-quantum cryptography upgrades are a major project, but miners and exchanges may move even more slowly.

Quantum threats have finally come to the forefront; the 2030 milestone is quite delicate—neither too far nor too close.

7 million BTC? How is this number calculated? Curious about the model assumptions.
