 | Bitcoin contributors Hunter Beast, Ethan Heilman, and Isabel Foxen Duke propose the BIP 360 soft fork, which is the first step towards making Bitcoin quantum-proof. The fork will replace a legacy feature called Pay to Taproot with a new one called Pay to Merkle Root, essentially removing a quantum vulnerability, which allows quantum computers to decode public keys. Taproot addresses are quantum vulnerable but are critical in supporting Bitcoin scalability through the Lightning Network. It will be interesting to see how the Lightning Network compatibility is dealt with after the upgrade. [link] [comments] |
