A report by CoinShares states that the quantum computing risks facing Bitcoin are "manageable," not an imminent crisis. While the Shor algorithm theoretically threatens ECDSA/Schnorr signatures, the actual risk is still decades away (expected in the 2030s or later). Currently, approximately 1.6 million BTC (8% of the supply) are held in publicly accessible P2PK addresses, but only about 10,200 BTC are in a state where a theft could potentially impact the market; the rest are scattered across numerous small addresses, making them extremely costly to crack.
CoinShares: Bitcoin quantum computing risks are manageable; only 10,000 early BTC face potential market shock.
