BIP proposes destroying bitcoins to save the ecosystem from quantum attack

Fearing an attack by quantum computers, Bitcoin developers have already started coding the hard fork that could alter the currency’s supply. Developer Agustin Cruz is the latest dev to post a draft Bitcoin Improvement Proposal (BIP) to the Bitcoin-Dev mailing list. Entitled “Quantum-Resistant Address Migration Protocol” (QRAMP), the draft BIP includes preliminary code and instructions for destroying unspent transaction outputs (UTXOs) — colloquially known as bitcoins (BTC) — on the world’s most valuable blockchain. His BIP contains code for a hard fork consensus change that would enact a mandatory migration of quantum-vulnerable UTXOs.  For context, Bitcoin’s Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) secures UTXOs. Unfortunately, ECDSA cannot defend against a sufficiently advanced quantum attacker. Although no quantum computer has stolen UTXOs yet, it’s possible that a more advanced machine may be able to steal them at some...

One token that could be immensely affected is Ripple, as experts predict XRP could fall 68% amid a bearish outlook derived from the market’s ‘Liberation Day’ drop.

Indeed, even Bitcoin has dropped more than 1.2%, with the asset looking to stay above the $81,000 mark. Now, all eyes are on how these assets will respond as the geopolitical situation gets even more concerning.

Nasdaq Files To Launch a New Grayscale Avalanche (AVAX) Exchange-Traded Fund

Digital asset management giant Grayscale hopes to launch an Avalanche (AVAX) exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the US. The Nasdaq Stock Market submitted a proposal this week to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to list and trade shares of Grayscale Avalanche Trust, which would be entirely tied to the price of the layer-1 project’s native asset, AVAX. Grayscale isn’t the first financial giant to file for an Avalanche ETF.
