Cathie Wood: AI and quantum research reshape view of Satoshi's dormant bitcoin

  • —Wood: AI is accelerating quantum research, but the same tools are being used to secure the network
  • —Developers: AI-driven security audit findings are already being merged into Bitcoin Core
  • —A move of Satoshi's coins could mean migration to new addresses or a quantum threat
  • —Prediction markets price only about 3% odds of Satoshi's coins moving before end-2026
Why it matters: The quantum threat and the fate of roughly 1 million BTC tied to Satoshi remain key long-term risks for bitcoin holders.
