Without going deep into the physics of Bitcoin, I’ll try to keep my response where most people can hopefully understand. Believing in both Bitcoin and centralized quantum computing is a contradiction. Bitcoin is a decentralized, open source process where energy crystalizes into immutable information, it’s physical and auditable. It defines a quantum not through speculation, but through energy: each UTXO is a conserved quantum of entropy, resolved through irreversible work and recorded in an open ledger defined by absolute scarcity. It is the only system in existence where the conservation of energy and information is not an axiom—but a measurable outcome. Truth is computed/earned through work and verifiable scarcity. Centralized quantum computing by contrast, demands belief without verification. It promises revolutionary computation, but offers no distributed audit, no open-source standard, and no observable output. The threat it poses is not a proof, it is a story told from behind the closed doors of state-funded/corporate-funded laboratories, veiled in unverifiable math and black-box error correction schemes. This is the split: Bitcoin is measured. Quantum computing is assumed. To fork Bitcoin’s protocol in response to this speculative, unverified narrative is to betray the very principles that give Bitcoin its meaning. It would be a reversion from energy to fear, from verification to fiat science. You either believe in a world where truth is conserved through proof-of-work, or you believe in a world where truth is declared by authority and simulation. If the threat can’t be publicly observed, measured, and reproduced, it’s not a threat. It’s a theory. Convincing people to fork out of fear is the only way to stop Bitcoin. Bitcoin computes the quantum from first principles; centralized quantum computing attempts to simulate on top of quantum particles it does not fully understand. The entire idea of superposition is complete nonsense. Bitcoin measures without bias, CQC imposes bias by privileged observation without ever defining what a measurement is. What would a quantum computer look like if it wasn’t centralized in a lab, but decentralized globally, open source and fully auditable?
