#USGDPUpdate Bitcoin isn’t under quantum threat yet, but upgrade could take 5-10 years

Even if quantum machines capable of breaking Bitcoin’s cryptography are decades away, the work required to update software, infrastructure and user behavior would be measured in years, not months.Bitcoin developers are preparing for the potential threat of quantum computing, which could take 5 to 10 years to address if necessary.

The shift in focus is from the immediacy of quantum threats to the logistics of updating Bitcoin's infrastructure and user behavior.

Bitcoin's conservative governance model complicates large-scale transitions, requiring significant coordination for any move toward quantum-resistant cryptography
