I'd like to share a draft Informational BIP as an altern= ative framework to BIP-361's proposed coin freeze.

The core argu= ment: 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 =E2=80=94 the largest open technological prize i= n history.

The proposal introduces three components:

= - Genesis Quantum Transaction (GQT): recognition of a successful spend from= a quantum-exposed address
- Quantum Vault (QV): automatically receive= s 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 capabilities
The capturing actor receives 10% immediately as a First Reward, w= ith ongoing distributions from the Vault =E2=80=94 creating long-term align= ment with ecosystem stability rather than incentivizing immediate liquidati= on.

Draft: https://g= ithub.com/amonmoce/Hunting-The-Bitcoin-One-Piece/blob/master/bip-hunting-th= e-bitcoin-one-piece.md

Looking forward to technical and phil= osophical feedback.

Best,
Amon
