Governments, technology giants, and financial institutions would move together to upgrade encryption standards across software and hardware systems. “When that happens, you’ll know,” he said, pointing to firms such as Apple (AAPL), Amazon (AMZN), Alphabet’s Google (GOOG/GOOGL), and major governments as early adopters of any real cryptographic transition.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Bitcoin Can Upgrade, Lost Coins May Raise Scarcity</h2>Bitcoin, Saylor argued, would be no exception. Because the network is software-based, it can be upgraded. Wallets would migrate to quantum-resistant encryption, and the protocol would adapt alongside the rest of the digital economy. The process, he said, would likely strengthen Bitcoin rather than weaken it.One possible consequence, according to Saylor, could be the permanent loss of coins tied to inactive or inaccessible wallets. Bitcoin that cannot be upgraded would effectively be frozen out of the network, creating what he described as a deflationary event. “The price of Bitcoin will increase, the security of Bitcoin will increase,” he said, framing the outcome as net positive for long-term holders.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Why ‘Don’t Panic’ Is Good Advice</h2>Saylor warned that panic itself creates risk. He likened fear-driven messaging around quantum threats to phishing attacks that rely on urgency and confusion to extract sensitive information. He stated that transformative technology is always doubted before being widely adopted – and panic is usually the wrong response.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/coins/bitcoin">Bitcoin’s price</a> edged 0.9% lower in early morning trade on Tuesday to around $87,600.
