🥶 Developers want to freeze BTC in old wallets

At the Quantum Bitcoin summit, the following solution was proposed: freeze vulnerable BTC, including Satoshi coins, to prevent a catastrophe.

25% of all viruses (including ~1 million Satoshi BTC) store outdated cryptography, they can be hacked by quantum computers.

The gist of the proposal (BIP by Jameson Lopp, Casa):

✔️ Ban transfers to old addresses (ECDSA/Schnorr).

✔️ After 5 years — complete blocking of withdrawals from such addresses.

✔️ Optionally use a mechanism for restoring frozen coins through proof of ownership of the seed phrase (without the risk of inflation).
