BlockBeats News, February 20 — Charles Edwards, founder of Bitcoin and digital asset quant fund Capriole, stated, "Considering the statistical probability of the arrival of ‘Q-Day’ (Quantum Day), rational investors may currently have discounted Bitcoin’s fair value by about 20%. If Bitcoin does not make substantial progress in resisting quantum coding, this discount could double each year.
If related upgrades continue to stagnate, Bitcoin’s valuation could be halved by the market within a year. It is hoped that the Bitcoin core development team will pay attention to this issue. Action must be taken by 2026 to address the potential threat of quantum computing."
