On January 24th, PANews reported that Franklin Bi, General Partner at Pantera Capital, published an article on the X platform stating that the quantum-resistant race has begun, but the market has clearly misjudged the adaptability of traditional finance and blockchain. First, the market overestimated the speed at which the Wall Street system can adapt to quantum-resistant technology upgrades. The migration process for traditional financial infrastructure will be slow and chaotic, and it will be difficult to avoid risks such as single points of failure. The overall security of the traditional financial system depends on its weakest link. Second, the market underestimated the unique upgrade capabilities of blockchain technology. If upgrades can be successfully completed within the critical window, some blockchains are expected to evolve into "safe havens" for data and assets in the quantum-resistant era. Ethereum is already one of the few successful examples demonstrating the ability to complete complex system upgrades globally (such as the previous The Merge upgrade). The security risks brought by quantum computing may actually strengthen the "gravitational effect" of a few core blockchain networks.
Pantera Capital: Quantum competition resistance could strengthen the "gravitational effect" of core blockchain networks, potentially making Ethereum a safe haven for data and assets.
