šØ Quantum Computing vs. Bitcoin Security ā”
Quantum computers arenāt just science fiction anymore. They're realāand growing fast. š§ š»
But what happens when their power meets #Bitcoinās cryptography? š
š Bitcoin relies on:
SHA-256 (for mining)
ECDSA (for wallet security & signatures)
Both are secure... for now.
But quantum algorithms like Shorās could one day break ECDSA, revealing private keys from public addresses. š±
š„ That means:
Funds in reused or exposed wallets could be at risk
Unsigned transactions could be hijacked
Long-term Bitcoin security = uncertain without upgrades
Are we there yet?
š Not quite. It would take thousands of stable qubits to pose a real threat. Todayās quantum computers are still in early development.
But the race is on.
And so is the need for post-quantum cryptography. āļø
šØāš» Bitcoin devs are already exploring upgrades to stay secure in a quantum world.
Stay informed. Stay secure. The future is being built now.
