A draft proposal called Quantum-Resistant Address Migration Protocol (QRAMP) outlines a new approach for handling vulnerable unspent transaction outputs (UTXOs) on the Bitcoin blockchain.
QRAMP suggests a hard fork to migrate UTXOs to quantum-resistant addresses due to the potential vulnerabilities of the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) against future quantum threats.
If implemented, users would need to transfer their coins to quantum-resistant wallets before a deadline. Failure to do so would result in the funds becoming unusable.
The proposal has sparked controversy over concerns about potential challenges faced by users and the potential decrease in the overall supply of BTC.
