Quantum fears already limiting Bitcoin’s growth, Stacks founder says

Muneeb Ali, founder of Stacks, has voiced concerns that uncertainties surrounding Bitcoin’s quantum security could impede its future growth by deterring institutional investors. Speaking on Cointelegraph’s Chain Reaction podcast, Ali underscored that the perceived risk of Bitcoin's cryptographic foundations being vulnerable to quantum attacks, even if a distant threat, might already be causing hesitation among major financial institutions looking to allocate capital to Bitcoin. This perspective suggests that addressing or clarifying Bitcoin's quantum resistance is crucial for its broader mainstream adoption.
