Grayscale: Bitcoin's Quantum Computing Risks Are a Social Problem, Not Just a Technical One

Grayscale's head of research, Zach Pandl, argues that the primary challenges Bitcoin faces from quantum computing are rooted in community governance rather than technology alone. He points to Bitcoin's track record of divisive debates around protocol changes as a key obstacle to implementing quantum-resistant solutions. The comments highlight concerns about whether consensus can be reached if a quantum threat requires urgent protocol updates.
