In its latest article on quantum attacks, a16z said that Bitcoin faces two major real-world challenges, making it urgent to move towards quantum-resistant digital signatures.
The first is the issue of governance efficiency. The upgrade process of Bitcoin is extremely slow. If the community cannot agree on a solution, any controversial issue could lead to a damaging hard fork. The second is the issue of initiative in migration. The transition to quantum-resistant signatures cannot be done passively, and holders must actively migrate assets. This means that a large number of dormant and vulnerable coins will be unprotected. It is estimated that the number of such bitcoins vulnerable to quantum attacks and potentially abandoned is in the millions, worth hundreds of billions of dollars at current market capitalization.
