"LAS INSTITUCIONES PODRAN DEJAR AFUERA A LOS DESARROLLADORES DE #BITCOIN POR EL RIESGO CUNTICO Los grandes accionistas como #BlackRock podran perder la paciencia si los desarrolladores de #Bitcoin no abordan las amenazas de la computacin cuntica afirma el VC Nic Carter. Advierte que si los desarrolladores no hacen nada las instituciones podran tomar el control y reemplazarlos. Y para los que vayan a comentar nadie puede despedir devs porque no hay empresa: correcto pero el control no se toma con un jefe se toma con presupuesto. En Bitcoin Core hay desarrolladores que viven de grants sponsors y"

"Google interest in "Quantum Computing Bitcoin" peaked when Bitcoin peaked. Evaluation of the risk was at a maxima when price was resulting in derisking a leading indicator to price falling. The Quantum threat drove Bitcoin down. The floor interest in quantum risk to Bitcoin is also steadily rising. The good news is at least this means we are starting to get traction and attention in the right places to solve the problem (Strategy Eth foundation etc). https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2023171979927552220 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2023171979927552220"
