Is the quantum computing threat actually spooking Bitcoin users? Here's what the numbers reveal: Taproot adoption has cratered from 42% down to just 20% since the start of 2024. That's unprecedented—we haven't seen the newest format lose ground like this before. The culprit? Taproot carries quantum vulnerability, whereas the older Segwit and Legacy formats remain protected. Whether it's growing awareness or pure caution, users appear to be hedging their bets by sticking with battle-tested address types.

Is quantum panic real? I don't know, but I see that the big players have already quietly withdrawn.

Bro, you really need to check this data. Taproot dropping from 42 to 20 is really outrageous. If you're worried about quantum, you're just going to run away directly.

The story of the quantum threat is back to scare people, but honestly, I don't quite believe it.

NGL, Taproot's drop this time is ridiculous. It feels like everyone is starting to get into it.

The quantum threat is becoming more and more real. Taproot dropped from 42% to 20%. How scared must one be to abandon the game so quickly?

42% drops to 20%? That's a bit outrageous. Is it really quantum panic or just a cyclical fluctuation...
