Satoshi’s 22,000 Bitcoin Wallet Strategy May Have Already Solved Quantum Threat
Bitwise Head of Research André Dragosch has shared historical evidence suggesting Satoshi Nakamoto intentionally distributed his Bitcoin holdings across thousands of wallets to reduce future quantum computing risks. According to Dragosch, archived correspondence supports analyst Marco Battistoni’s conclusion that the wallet structure was a deliberate security strategy rather than a coincidence from early mining. The findings have gained renewed attention as Bitcoin developers debate how the network should prepare for post-quantum cryptography.
