Show Notes

In this episode, hosts McIntosh and Kenshin explore whether quantum computing poses a real threat to Bitcoin. They discuss findings from the Presidio Bitcoin Quantum Summit, where experts' concern about cryptographically relevant quantum computers arriving within 5-20 years increased after the event. However, the hosts emphasize this is not an imminent threat—current quantum computers are extremely expensive, error-prone, and nowhere near capable of breaking Bitcoin's cryptography. Solutions like BIP 360 are already being proposed to implement quantum-resistant algorithms when needed.

If you are a pilot, or just want to be entertained by pilots these guys are great. Great advice, funny stories, they have faked it so long they've finally made it! They also shout out @npub1sk7mtp67z… as a go to podcast.

Great rant by Giacomo! Everyone who has a position on BIP-110 should listen (both sides) personally I agree with 99.99% of what he said, but I'm supportive of BIP-110 for the sake of reminding the Core devs they don't decide what Bitcoin is and does. I look forward to competing node software fighting for market share by providing a stable product that is most aligned with users desires.

    Great discussion on quantum! I think doing some updates to the structure of the pod will be good. Picking up sponsors isn't the end of the world. Keep up the good work either way.
