Bitcoin Maximalists Are Wrong About Quantum: Why ‘Just Use Fresh Addresses’ Isn’t Enough

The maximalist response to quantum risk — use fresh addresses and don’t reuse — provides partial protection but fails in practice. DeFi, exchanges, and real-world usage make fresh-address discipline impossible.

The Fresh Address Myth

Theory: never reuse addresses, always send to fresh ones, keep public keys hidden behind hashes. Practice: DeFi requires persistent addresses, exchanges KYC addresses to identities, gas optimisation encourages consolidation. Real users cannot maintain fresh-address hygiene.

BMIC’s Architectural Solution

BMIC doesn’t rely on user discipline — it provides quantum security architecturally. Whether you transact once or ten thousand times, ZPKE ensures zero public key exposure. The security is built into the system, not dependent on user behaviour.
