Hello Amon,Your document’s formatting is broken, because you use MediaWiki syntax in a Markdown file.
IMHO, any proposal that calls for Bitcoin to issue a substantial quantum bounty should make the case why this would be in the interest of the Bitcoin ecosystem. Your proposal treats this as obvious, but it’s not clear to me why the Bitcoin ecosystem should involve itself in this manner in Quantum research.

Hi all,I'd like to share a draft Informational BIP as an alternative framework to BIP-361's proposed coin freeze.The core argument: rather than suspending Bitcoin's neutrality to prevent quantum theft, we can structure the inevitable quantum capture of exposed coins as a self-financing prize mechanism — the largest open technological prize in history.The proposal introduces three components:- Genesis Quantum Transaction (GQT): recognition of a successful spend from a quantum-exposed address - Quantum Vault (QV): automatically receives 90% of captured funds, distributes periodically to proven quantum actors synchronized with the halving cycle - Quantum Proof Address (QPA): the on-chain identity of any actor who demonstrates quantum capture capability, forming a public, unfalsifiable register of global quantum capabilitiesThe capturing actor receives 10% immediately as a First Reward, with ongoing distributions from the Vault — creating long-term alignment with ecosystem stability rather than incentivizing immediate liquidation.Draft: https://github.com/amonmoce/Hunting-The-Bitcoin-One-Piece/blob/master/bip-hunting-the-bitcoin-one-piece.mdLooking forward to technical and philosophical feedback.
