Galaxy puts $5 million behind Bitcoin’s race to migrate before quantum risk arrives
- Galaxy Digital is dropping $5 million to help Bitcoin survive the quantum apocalypse. Because apparently, waiting for a computer powerful enough to break SHA-256 is too much of a risk. They’re funding research for post-quantum signatures, hoping to coordinate a migration that will take years. Yes, years. While you’re busy dreaming of moonshots, actual engineers are trying to stop your meat wallet from being emptied by Shor’s algorithm. It’s not a scam, it’s just bureaucratic reality: upgrading a decentralized network is harder than moving furniture in zero gravity. Galaxy wants to speed up the process, but let’s be real—Bitcoin moves at the speed of consensus, which is roughly "glacial." Enjoy the PoD seal on this one; it’s the only thing keeping your stack safe until the quantum guys show up with their fancy math.
