| Freezing coins is a hard no.                                                                                         |
|                                                                                                                      |
| Bitcoin is simple at its core. If you have the keys, you control the coins. That rule is the foundation. There are   |
| no exceptions based on age, identity, or narrative.                                                                  |
|                                                                                                                      |
| The moment you freeze coins, you break that rule. You introduce human judgment into a system that was designed to    |
| remove it. That shifts Bitcoin from a neutral protocol to a governed system.                                         |
|                                                                                                                      |
| Satoshi’s coins are not a problem. They are a signal. A large, untouched set of coins that acts as a natural test    |
| surface.                                                                                                             |
|                                                                                                                      |
| If quantum capability ever becomes real, it won’t be subtle. It will go after the most visible and valuable targets  |
| first. That means Satoshi’s coins.                                                                                   |
|                                                                                                                      |
| When those coins move, the signal will be clear. No need for speculation or preemptive action. The network will see  |
| it in real time.                                                                                                     |
|                                                                                                                      |
| Freezing coins tries to act before reality. It assumes a threat and changes the rules in advance. That is not how    |
| Bitcoin was designed to operate.                                                                                     |
|                                                                                                                      |
| Bitcoin works because the rules are fixed and predictable. Ownership is determined by keys, not by decisions made    |
| later under pressure.                                                                                                |
|                                                                                                                      |
| Once you accept freezing, you open the door to further intervention. That path leads away from Bitcoin’s core        |
| principles.                                                                                                          |
|                                                                                                                      |
