According to The Block, U.S. President Trump signed two executive orders requiring the United States to accelerate its quantum technology deployment and mitigate the impact of quantum computing on existing cryptographic systems. High-value assets must complete key exchange migration by the end of 2030, and high-impact systems must complete digital signature migration by the end of 2031. Quantum computing is also considered one of the long-term risks to the crypto industry. Coinbase’s Quantum Computing and Blockchain Independent Advisory Committee previously stated that around 7 million BTC are stored in addresses that could potentially be exposed to quantum attacks in the future, including addresses from the Satoshi era and some exchange cold wallets.

Listening to 2031 sounds far away, but migrating the entire financial infrastructure? This timeline is a bit tight.

If Satoshi Nakamoto's coins are truly cracked by quantum computing, the crypto world will go into a frenzy, although by then the prices are probably no longer at today's levels.
