TL;DR: Bitcoin’s supply = safe. Mining = safe. Your coins in a never-reused address = safe behind a hashed (obscured) address. The real risk is exposed public keys, and BIP-360 gives us a clear migration path. The threat isn’t here yet, but it’s not a bad idea to prepare early.

Something I've been struggling with for a while is that supporters of BIP-110 have been making statements like this: source source source There seems to be a belief among BIP-110 supporters that even a minority of hashrate (45%?) could pull of a successful…

I got into Bitcoin relatively late. I wasn’t in Bitcoin around for the 2015–2017 era, I completely missed the blocksize wars, segwit drama, and all the historical battles people like to reference today. So for me, this BIP-110 situation is the first time…
