BitGo announces quantum-risk management capabilities for bitcoin wallets

BitGo Holdings announced new quantum-risk management capabilities for Bitcoin wallets, designed to help institutions assess, manage, and reduce quantum-related exposure across UTXO-based wallets. The company said, "BitGo's quantum-risk management capabilities for Bitcoin wallets include: UTXO Selection Method: Our new coin selection method that groups and prioritizes UTXOs by address to reduce exposure created by partial spends. Funds already held in address types that expose a public key from creation, such as Taproot or Pay-to-Public-Key, require separate remediation and are outside of the scope of this application Quantum Risk Score: An in-platform scoring system that helps clients understand potential quantum-related exposure across supported Bitcoin wallets Fix Exposed Addresses Workflow: A guided remediation flow that helps clients move funds away from addresses with elevated exposure and into newly generated addresses with improved key hygiene Default Address-Type Controls: Updated default wallet behavior designed to reduce reliance on Bitcoin address types and transaction patterns that may introduce additional quantum-related considerations"
