Bitgo Launches Quantum Risk Management Features for Bitcoin Wallets on July 10

According to Bitgo, the digital asset infrastructure company introduced quantum risk management features for UTXO-based Bitcoin wallets on July 10, designed to help institutions assess, manage, and reduce quantum-related exposure.

The new features include a coin selection method that prioritizes UTXOs by address to minimize exposure from partial spending, an on-platform quantum risk score to help customers understand potential quantum vulnerabilities, an address remediation workflow to move funds from high-exposure addresses to newly generated addresses with improved key hygiene, and updated default address-type controls to reduce reliance on Bitcoin address types that could introduce additional quantum considerations. Bitgo CEO Mike Belshe stated the company believes keys whose public keys have never been exposed on-chain are safest, and these features provide institutions with practical means to reduce quantum exposure while maintaining multisig security.
