Bitcoin Quantum Resistance & Long-Term Price Models
Lugano's Plan B conference sparks conversation about quantum threats to Bitcoin's signature schemes, while the Dacoinminster power law model projects BTC at ~$104K by end of 2026 and ~$141K by end of 2027.
What we know
At the Lugano Plan B conference, an account on X highlights a Blockstream talk: 'The Race to Replace Bitcoin's Signatures: Quantum, AI, and Hash Functions' — covering what's solved, what isn't, and why preparation matters more than timeline. In parallel, a widely shared power law price model from Dacoinminster (2013), RT'd by another account on X, projects BTC's 'magnetic' long-term line at $103,912 by end-2026 and $140,636 by end-2027, noting past cycle tops overshot the line by up to 16x.

At the Lugano Plan B conference, Adam Back argued that Simplicity — a single expressive scripting language with formal semantics — could be Bitcoin's last needed soft fork, unlocking Confidential Transactions and covenants.
Multiple signals are coalescing around a Bitcoin cycle bottom thesis: Adam Back told Bloomberg big banks are now recommending 2–4%+ BTC allocations, the 200-week MA crossed $65K, and short-term holder supply is at its lowest since January 2023.
