Abstract generation in progress

Odaily News Bitcoin developer Agustin Cruz proposed a BIP draft called “Quantum Resistant Address Migration Protocol” (QRAMP), planning to migrate BTC from old wallets using ECDSA encryption to wallets protected by post-quantum Cryptography through a Hard Fork. The proposal sets a migration deadline Block Height, and nodes will reject transactions from unmigrated addresses at that time. This move aims to address potential Quantum Computing threats, although there is currently no direct risk, but Microsoft’s recent release of the quantum processor Majorana 1 has raised concerns.
