PANews February 17 News, Michael Saylor, founder of Bitcoin treasury company Strategy, posted on X that during bank holidays, Bitcoin can still transfer any amount to any location worldwide within minutes, with transaction fees of approximately $0.44 (about 1 sat/vB). During the previous “Blocksize Wars,” the market generally worried that Bitcoin would face scalability issues. However, more than a decade later, on-chain transaction fees for Bitcoin remain low, and network bandwidth resources are sufficient. This outcome again demonstrates that market mechanisms and technological innovation are often more effective than administrative emergency interventions in solving systemic challenges.

Bernstein: The quantum threat to Bitcoin is real but manageable, with a 3–5 year upgrade window—not an end-of-the-world countdown.
A Wall Street brokerage report by Bernstein says that the threat quantum computing poses to Bitcoin can be controlled within 3 to 5 years, with the primary risk concentrated in 1.7 million old wallets. Although Google Quantum AI's breakthrough has accelerated the risk timeline, the main quantum threat affects private key security, while the SHA hashing mechanism used by Bitcoin mining remains secure.
