#恶意攻击手段 Seeing the discussions about the threat of quantum computing, I want to share an important perspective with everyone.



Although experts generally believe that by 2026 quantum computing cracking encrypted assets is not an imminent issue, this is no reason for us to relax our vigilance. On the contrary, we should take the opportunity now to proactively plan. The data that concerns me most is that approximately 25% to 30% of BTC is stored in addresses with exposed public keys. What does this mean? It doesn't imply that something will happen tomorrow, but that attackers are "collecting first, decrypting later," waiting for the technology to mature.

This is actually similar to how we manage assets. Security isn't about responding only after a risk erupts, but about building defenses during calm periods. Here are a few suggestions:

**Avoid Reusing Addresses**—Use a new address for each transaction. This habit may seem cumbersome, but it significantly reduces exposure risk. **Pay Attention to Wallet Upgrades**—Quantum-resistant wallets are under development; migrate promptly when they become available. **Maintain a Long-term Mindset**—Don’t panic because of these theoretical risks; instead, plan your asset allocation more rationally.

The essence of security education is to give us more certainty amid uncertainty. Instead of passively waiting for threats to arrive, it’s better to take proactive action. This is what prudent investors should do.
