In this paper we give a sufficient condition for a punctured topological 4-manifold to have uncountably many differentiable structures. We also formulate a conjecture about a generalization of Casson's invariant and Rochlin's invariant, which would imply existence of uncountably many differentiable structures on a punctured topological 4-manifold with nontrivial Kirby-Siebenmann obstruction.
