The post Bitcoin Is Safe From Quantum Computing Attacks: Saylor appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Michael Saylor, the CEO of software company MicroStrategy, has affirmed that quantum computers pose negligible risk to the security systems of the Bitcoin (BTC) blockchain.
Bitcoin-targetted quantum computer attacks are at least a decade away
Speaking at Natalie Brunell’s Coin Stories podcast, Saylor referred to news of quantum computing risks to Bitcoin as a “fear fad.” Echoing a similar outlook by CoinShares, Saylor said any remarkable quantum risk is over a decade away.
Saylor went on to cite Bitcoin’s BIP-360 upgrade, which will effectively adapt the blockchain into a quantum-resistant and lattice-based infrastructure. Any attempts to breach security would only heighten the demand for the coin, further validating what he referred to as a “supply-hardening event.”
As Saylor explains, institutional buying is causing Bitcoin shift away from technical scarcity (halving) to structural scarcity (institutional BTC accumulation). Thereafter, any demand in Bitcoin, even through a coordinated hack, would cause a “supply shock”, effectively causing upward mercurial responses in BTC’s price.
In our brand new sit-down, I handed @saylor every anti-Bitcoin argument the internet has and he responded to ALL of them.
I dare any Bitcoin critic to watch this interview and not reconsider at least one of their arguments.

In the past, however, Ripple’s David Schwartz and CryptoQuant founder Ki Young Ju, have warned of Bitcoin’s vulnerability to quantum attacks. Schwartz even noted that Bitcoin may need to “fork to be quantum proof.”
MicroStrategy BTC acquisition tactic and price outlook
As of February 23, 2026, MicroStrategy was the world’s largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, with 717,722 BTC worth about $54.56 billion. Speaking to Brunell, Natalie explained that the company uses the perpetual preferred stock technique to accumulate BTC while significantly minimizing its stock dilution risk. Effectively, shareholders enjoy fixed income, while the company increases its Bitcoin exposure.
Since 2020, MicroStrategy has continuously accumulated Bitcoin as its reserve asset in the Bitcoin era that it refers to as the “Orange Century”.
At press time, BTC was trading at $64,208, having dropped 0.34% in the last 24h. Despite an almost 50% crash from a $123,000 all-time high, Saylor remains bullish and continues to plan for further BTC purchasing.
