BIP-360 co-author Ethan Heilman says that making Bitcoin quantum-secure could take 7 years. Recent breakthroughs suggest time is running out.

Abstract: In this paper, we propose a provable secured hash function based on the block cipher, called BM, with 512-bits hash length. The proposed hash algorithm uses the Alpha-DBL compression ...
