🧠 Quantum vs. Bitcoin: Are We Getting Closer to the Breaking Point?

According to a new analysis cited by Decrypt, Google researchers have discovered that breaking RSA encryption may require 20x fewer quantum resources than previously believed.

🔍 Here’s what that means:

– Estimated threshold for breaking RSA: under 1,000,000 qubits

– Time to crack: a few days, not years

– Current state: IBM’s most advanced quantum computer (Condor) has 1,121 qubits

So — Bitcoin isn’t under threat today, but the gap is narrowing.

And while $BTC doesn’t use RSA directly, the implications for all cryptography are real. It raises questions about the need for post-quantum security in the blockchain space.

Is crypto ready for the quantum era?
