Bitcoin developers have updated the BIP 360 draft to introduce P2MR, a proposed output type designed to reduce long-term quantum risk, while maintaining Taproot scripting flexibility. *** Bitcoin developers have updated the BIP 360 draft to introduce P2MR. The P2MR is a proposed output type designed to reduce quantum risk in the long term. At the same time it retains Taproot scripting flexibility. The proposal completely eliminates the spending …
Quantum attack resistance BIP-360 added into the official Bitcoin repository
In the quest to prepare the Bitcoin ecosystem to handle future quantum computing threats, Bitcoin developers have officially submitted BIP-360 into the Bitcoin Improvement Proposal repository. This milestone will place quantum resistance properly on Bitcoin’s technical roadmap for the first time ever. The proposal, which was co-authored by Hunter Beast (senior protocol engineer at MARA), cryptographic researcher Ethan Hellman, and technical com…
Bitcoin Developers Kick Off Quantum-Safety Track With BIP-360
Bitcoin’s quantum-security discussion just gained a concrete new artifact in the code-and-spec pipeline: an updated draft of BIP-360 has been merged into the official Bitcoin Improvement Proposals repository, proposing a Taproot-adjacent output type designed to limit exposure to future quantum key-recovery attacks. The change matters less because it “solves” quantum risk today, and more because it formalizes a specific, opt-in path that preserve…
Bitcoin Developers Bolster Network Security With Quantum
BIP 360 seeks to defend Bitcoin against quantum computers by introducing a new output model. The proposal’s Pay-to-Merkle-Root aims to limit exposure of public keys on the blockchain.

Bitcoin Advances Toward Quantum Resistance With BIP 360
BIP 360, a proposal aimed at preparing Bitcoin for future computing threats, has been updated and merged into the official Bitcoin Improvement Proposal (BIP) GitHub repository, marking a new step in efforts to strengthen the network against emerging cryptographic and quantum computing risks. The proposal introduces a new Bitcoin output type called Pay-to-Merkle-Root (P2MR), designed to support quantum-resistant script tree functionality while m…
