According to @BitMEXResearch, Bitcoin developer Pieter Wuille joined the discussion to explain which coins could be at risk from quantum computing, highlighting that risk assessment is an active topic in the community (source: @BitMEXResearch on X, Dec 23, 2025). @BitMEXResearch reported that user sgravina expressed skepticism about quantum computing capabilities, noting the oft-cited claim that the most impressive factorization achieved was 5 x 3 = 15, a talking point the thread says persists (source: @BitMEXResearch on X, Dec 23, 2025). For traders, the thread indicates ongoing debate around quantum-security risk narratives tied to BTC, which market participants track as potential headline-driven sentiment catalysts (source: @BitMEXResearch on X, Dec 23, 2025).

According to BitMEX Research, Pieter Wuille and Greg Maxwell have been congratulated for their significant contributions to Bitcoin development.
