Elon Musk has recently taken to X (formerly Twitter) to ask its native Grok AI regarding the challenges posed by the emerging quantum computing technology towards Bitcoin mining. The LLM program provided some fascinating answers that caught the attention of crypto users, sparking a vigorous online debate.
Quantum computing is often cited as a major threat to Bitcoin’s SHA-256 mining algorithm, the very foundation of the blockchain revolution. If its fundamentals are compromised at one point, it will irreversibly hurt the crypto sector.
Musk was responding to an X post by IBM in which it showcased the company’s latest developments in the futuristic technology. The official handle tweeted:
“We’re building more than quantum computers. We’re building a system that uses quantum to solve real-world problems that were once considered impossible.
