Bitcoin and Ethereum are addressing the quantum computing threat to their cryptographic foundations through fundamentally different strategies. Bitcoin pursues a conservative, incremental approach centered on minimizing changes and maintaining stability, while Ethereum adopts a proactive, roadmap-driven strategy emphasizing cryptographic agility. The divergence, termed the 'quantum gap,' reflects broader differences in governance philosophy rather than disagreement about the threat itself. Google announced in March 2026 a target timeline to transition to post-quantum cryptography by 2029, accelerating industry-wide discussions.
