PANews reported on April 5th that according to Protos, Bitcoin developer Agustin Cruz published a Bitcoin Improvement Proposal (BIP) draft called "Quantum Resistant Address Migration Protocol (QRAMP)" on the Bitcoin-Dev mailing list. The BIP draft contains hard fork consensus change code that will force the migration of UTXOs vulnerable to quantum attacks. If QRAMP gains consensus and is activated in the leading version of the full node software Bitcoin Core, a countdown will begin. By the deadline, if users fail to transfer their coins to a quantum-resistant wallet, Bitcoin Core will reject any transactions attempting to spend funds from Legacy wallets. In the BIP's description, Cruz argues that it provides "legitimate owners with a clear, non-negotiable opportunity to protect their funds." He describes his proposal as "realistic" and "necessary". Importantly, the BIP will effectively change BTC's supply. After its deadline, it will reject transactions from old UTXOs. This will essentially destroy these currencies from BTC circulation. Currently, the BIP is still in draft stage and has not been assigned a BIP number.
