A week of AI coding cut a quantum-safe bitcoin transaction estimate from $320 to $66
StarkWare, which conducted the research, says contest participants using AI tools made the computation about five times faster, though the $66 figure has not yet been demonstrated in another transaction mined on Bitcoin.

- StarkWare said AI-assisted coding reduced the estimated computing cost of preparing a quantum-resistant Bitcoin transaction to $66 from $320 by making the underlying search process substantially faster.
- The method could help eligible Bitcoin holders move funds if quantum computers threaten exposed public keys before the network adopts a broader fix, and it works without requiring a Bitcoin upgrade.
- The $66 figure has not been demonstrated in another mined transaction, and the method requires sending transactions directly to miners and cannot protect coins whose public keys are already exposed.
