There are speculations that Bitcoin founder Satoshi Nakamoto may return to cope with the threat posed by quantum computing. The mysterious figure has been missing since Satoshi Nakamoto's last public statement in 2011, "I have turned to something else." However, SharpLink Gaming co-CEO Joseph Chalom put forward a "bold assumption" that Satoshi Nakamoto may appear again if Bitcoin faces an existential threat from quantum computing. Some experts predict that quantum computing may bring an "existence crisis" to Bitcoin in the next decade. To this end, the Bitcoin community has begun to discuss how to make the network resistant to quantum. Proposals include implementing hard forks to achieve quantum resistance and freezing Bitcoins held by Satoshi Nakamoto, which are considered vulnerable to quantum attacks.
