Strive CEO Says Quantum Computing Is Unlikely to Threaten Bitcoin First

Strive CEO Cole Macro argues that the first major quantum computers are more likely to emerge from U.S. technology companies such as Google or Microsoft than from North Korea.
He also believes quantum computing is unlikely to immediately drain Bitcoin ($BTC) wallets or compromise Satoshi Nakamoto’s coins.
His reasoning is that sufficiently powerful quantum computers could threaten much of today's internet infrastructure before becoming a direct threat to Bitcoin. That risk would likely require a careful, coordinated rollout of quantum technology and security upgrades.
The comments highlight an ongoing debate about quantum computing's potential impact on cryptography and Bitcoin's long-term security. However, the timeline and capabilities of future quantum systems remain uncertain.
