The initiative targets "Q-Day"—the critical moment when quantum computers utilize Shor's algorithm to crack Bitcoin's elliptic curve encryption, forge signatures, and steal wallet assets. Project Eleven predicts that quantum computers capable of cryptographic threats may emerge as early as 2030, at which point approximately 6.9 million BTC will face exposure risks. The Coinbase Quantum Advisory Committee has also called on developers to immediately initiate migration work. Meanwhile, Trump has signed an executive order setting the deadline for the U.S. federal government to complete post-quantum cryptography migration to December 2031.

Odaily Odaily reports, according to the official announcement, Bitget's spot copy trading module now supports trading of US stock tokens rToken. Traders can trade US stock rTokens (such as rTSLA, rNVDA, etc.) in the copy trading zone, while copy traders can automatically follow the traders' open position signals. The operational logic for related opening and closing positions, order records, and profit-sharing mechanisms remains consistent with existing crypto spot copy trading. Meanwhile, US stock rTokens adopt a new candlestick chart that supports adjusted price settings, eliminating the impact of events such as stock splits on historical price trends.When a related rToken undergoes a stock split, reverse stock split, or dividend event, new copy buy orders for the corresponding trading pair will be temporarily suspended, though selling will not be affected. During this period, the system will take profit/loss snapshots and settle profit-sharing for existing positions, and will uniformly transfer the relevant rToken assets along with any cash or stock dividends to the user's main account. Once the event processing is completed, the trading pair will resume normal copy trading. Users can upgrade their App to version v2.89.0 to experience this feature.
