Renowned investment strategy executive reduces Bitcoin holdings: Quantum computing threats are being incorporated into asset allocation considerations

【Blockchain Rhythm】J.P. Morgan Global Equity Strategist Christopher Wood recently made a major move—completely liquidating his 10% Bitcoin holdings in his investment portfolio. The logic behind this is straightforward: the development of quantum computing could threaten the cryptographic security foundation of Bitcoin.

This is not alarmist. Wood explicitly pointed out that once significant breakthroughs in quantum computing are achieved, Bitcoin as a long-term asset, or even as a store of value at pension fund levels, will face substantial risks. Interestingly, this risk concern has already shifted from niche technical discussions to a mainstream institutional consideration for allocations. In other words, the potential threat of quantum computing to the security of crypto assets is now entering the risk assessment framework of large institutions.
