Coinbase has called on the Bitcoin ecosystem to begin multi-year planning for a quantum-resistant migration, arguing that the window for orderly preparation is narrowing even as cryptographically relevant quantum computers remain years away from posing a practical threat to the network’s security model. The exchange’s position frames the effort not as an emergency response but as a long-range infrastructure problem, one requiring standards evaluation, protocol research, wallet upgrades, and coordinated ecosystem buy-in before any network-wide change can realistically activate.
