According to official announcements, Galaxy today launched the "Bitcoin Quantum Security Initiative"—a multi-faceted program aimed at helping Bitcoin mitigate potential threats from advancing quantum computing. The initiative consists of three core components: providing developer grants of up to $5 million to support R&D of post-quantum cryptography solutions for Bitcoin; establishing a dedicated research and publication program through Galaxy Research to advance quantum security-related studies; and forming a Quantum Advisory Board, which will bring together top experts in quantum computing and post-quantum cryptography to guide Bitcoin’s quantum security efforts. Bitcoin’s current security relies on elliptic curve cryptography. Theoretically, this cryptographic system could be compromised once a sufficiently powerful quantum computer is developed. While no quantum computer capable of cracking modern cryptography exists globally today, industry forecasts suggest the timeline for achieving this breakthrough is accelerating. The U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) officially released its first batch of post-quantum cryptography standards in 2024. Furthermore, a recent U.S. executive order requires the federal government to complete deployment of quantum attack protection for traditional cryptographic systems by 2031, further highlighting the urgency of quantum security concerns.

Contract whale "Set 10 Big Goals First" posted that in his last trading round, he used 150 BTC to open a position targeting $150 million. He once realized a maximum profit of $120 million, but misjudged the direction when BTC dropped from $120,000, wiping out all his gains and only retaining his principal plus a small profit. For this round, he used 300 BTC to open a position targeting $300 million, and has now realized a profit of $60 million. "Set 10 Big Goals First" added that he has continuously established trading rules and formed good habits. He strictly learned risk control discipline from the lesson of last round's full profit wipeout: one can miss opportunities or make wrong judgments, but must refuse any risk of being liquidated in a single wave. This morning, he shared his trade details: he went long Bitcoin with 4x leverage, with an average entry price of $63,827.06. His current long position is approximately 2,358.05 BTC, worth $150 million. With BTC breaking through $66,000, his unrealized profit may expand to $5.15 million.
