SharpLink CEO: Satoshi Nakamoto Could Return When Bitcoin Faces Quantum Computing Threat

BlockBeats News, September 7th, according to Decrypt, since Bitcoin’s creator Satoshi Nakamoto left his last message in 2011 saying “I’ve moved on to other things,” he has remained elusive. However, Joseph Chalom, Co-CEO of SharpLink Gaming, has put forward a “bold theory”: if Bitcoin faces a survival threat from quantum computing, Satoshi Nakamoto may reappear.

Some experts believe that quantum computing could pose a “survival crisis” for Bitcoin in the next decade. The Bitcoin community has begun discussing how to make the network quantum-resistant. Some have proposed achieving quantum resistance through a hard fork, while others have suggested freezing the Bitcoin held by Satoshi Nakamoto that is vulnerable to quantum attacks.
