Discussions about BIP-361 and proposals to freeze quantum‑vulnerable wallets, naming Jameson Lopp as a “bad actor” and using phrases like "Freezing coins (theft)", "unconfiscatable", "dormant", and references to "Satoshi Nakamoto’s 1.1M coins"; posts include repeated nostr event/profile strings.

I thought I was pretty reasonable & balanced in my article. 🤷♂️ And yeah, I didn’t go too deep on all aspects, but only the one aspect I wanted (and have reasonable qualifications) to tackle. The nub is that the classical legal mechanics and equities are not clearly aligned to either side, at least with the present proposals.

Surely not!
"BIP-361 is the antithesis of the Bitcoin ethos. First of all, if a hacker steal 1 million Bitcoin from Coinbase, are you going to freeze them? Second, if EVER there is a quantum computer that can brake Satoshi's public keys, this computer will belong either to Google or the US or other gov. Why do you think they will directly dump all Bitcoin instead of use it as money and store of value? What if Saylor decides to dump, he almost has that amount? Jameson SLopp is a real Communist for wanting to freeze other peoples Bitcoin via BIP-361 as well as evil shitcoiner, spammer and manipulator. The compromised Core clowns are working closely with him as seen on Github. Scameson SLopp is worse than a Bcasher. He is an inverstor in Citrea spammers shitcoin alongside Peter Thiel from Palantir. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/HGHfseIXkAABsOT.jpg"
Bitcoin is Freedom Money and has no 2nd best.
"What’s the logic here? If those are lost coins who cares if they’re farmed by quantum computers? If they’re not lost then they can be transitioned to quantum resistant wallets. nostr:nevent1qqsv5y556ln2dacsdf2zcpcxhdhsh4y2kp8nza7u7dukujjaqds7sqqp9pmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgtmkxyhh5atvw5khqctsvykkk6tvdul8aa5r"

I think it's more likely than not that Saylor's coin gets stolen by the US government than Satoshi's coins get stolen by quantum. I think people need to realize that there's a lot of smart people that are smarter than us that are working on these things, and we shouldn't rush into any significant changes to Bitcoin, period. nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgprpmhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet5qyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvzcvpu2 - RHR 405: STRETCH YOUR CHEEKS FOR THE BITCOIN BULL Apr 17, 2026 - block height 945,510 BTC/USD: $77,340 Network hashrate: 971.5 EH/s nostr:nevent1qqstghpzm3m7wj0yff59xk0le2yyxhucvkwe0xpm4xlcf42lyec78qqcytmxy

I don't think they are serious about this. It's a distraction from BIP-110 as it was gaining momentum. BIP-361, if I understand correctly, will have to be a hard fork as it sets up a precedent for which you can make certain BTC unusable based on which wallet they are stored in and how often they are accessed. That's just insane. It's FIAT mentality at its best. Nothing to do with BTC.

Lopp's been almost entirely noise for years now.
