What Bitcoin’s Post-Quantum Migration Actually Requires
A new output type, a signature algorithm choice, a fee-market renegotiation, and a multi-year UTXO sunset. The engineering pieces of Bitcoin's PQC migration, and…

One network, three cryptographic primitives, five layers, five different sets of owners. Ethereum as a worked example in reading a cryptographic inventory.
A post-quantum plan is two migrations under one label. Sorting the signature work by who has to agree before you can change an algorithm…
Harvest Now, Decrypt Later sets its clock by data retention. The signature side of the quantum problem sets its clock by deployment lifetime, and…
