#恶意攻击手段 Regarding the recent discussions on "malicious attacks" in quantum computing, I have to be honest—90% of it is indeed just marketing hype, but that remaining 10% is truly worth paying attention to.
Crucial data hits hard: approximately 25-30% of BTC are stored in addresses with exposed public keys, which indeed face a higher risk of being cracked. But even more concerning is the "collect first, decrypt later" logic—attackers are currently accumulating encrypted data, waiting for quantum computing to mature before launching a wave of decryption. This is not a 2026 issue; it’s happening right now.
From a copy-trading perspective, this gives us an important reminder: when choosing traders, observe their understanding of risk asset allocation. True experts not only focus on short-term gains but also consider long-term asset security. Those who frequently transfer between public addresses and avoid reusing addresses clearly understand risk management better.
The current countermeasures are actually quite simple—avoid address reuse, and migrate as soon as quantum-resistant wallets are available. But to be blunt, not many people are actually prepared for this. This is precisely a dimension to distinguish professional players.
No need to panic, but you do need to pay attention.
