Diamante: Quantum Threat Shifts Bitcoin Timeline
Summary
DIAM announces that recent quantum breakthroughs shrink Bitcoin's upgrade window to 2029-2032, with under 500,000 qubits now sufficient and $450B of BTC at risk. The post-quantum moves, including StarkNet wallets and market responses, explain why DIAM was built to remove the need to react and protect assets.
This isn’t just about broken encryption.
It’s about the time it takes to fix it.
Upgrading Bitcoin isn’t a switch you flip.
It’s a process that requires global consensus, technical alignment, and phased migration. That process has historically taken years and quantum progress doesn’t wait for that.
So the real question isn’t “will Bitcoin upgrade?”
It’s whether it can do so before the window closes.
Diam was built with that constraint in mind.
Not assuming time to react, but removing the need to.
