According to Arkham monitoring, Bhutan recently transferred 90 BTC (worth 7 million USD) to a Segwit address, which may indicate its transfer of assets to an independent entity or sale.Since the beginning of the year, Bhutan has cumulatively transferred BTC worth 237 million USD from its wallet to Segwit addresses and currently still holds BTC worth 233 million USD.

On-chain analyst Willy Woo tweeted that the future "quantum computing era" may allow public keys to be reverse-engineered into private keys, leading to asset risks. Currently, Taproot addresses starting with "bc1p" are not quantum-safe, while SegWit addresses starting with "bc1q" still have protective capabilities. He advises users to transfer BTC to SegWit or legacy format addresses and to avoid spending until an upgrade to quantum-safe protocols is completed to prevent exposure of public keys.Woo expects that the Bitcoin network will complete its quantum-safe upgrade in about 7 years, while quantum threats may emerge as early as after 2030.

ChainCatcher news, this Thursday, a 1H1Ab6 starting address that has been dormant for 12 years transferred 139 BTC to a newly created Segwit address.It is reported that this user, who has held Bitcoin for nearly 12 years, purchased these Bitcoins in June 2011 at a price slightly above $2,250, which has now risen to $3.5 million at current prices.
