Quantum computers are advancing fast—and experts are warning they might soon be able to hack Bitcoin. That means accessing wallets, reversing transactions, and threatening the blockchain’s core.
🔹 IBM plans to release a fault-tolerant quantum computer by 2029, capable of breaking encryption.
🔹 Google's research (May 2025) shows that Bitcoin’s encryption could be cracked in a week with fewer quantum resources than expected.
🔹 Adam Back (Blockstream) says don’t panic yet—real danger is 20 years away, but recommends moving old $BTC BTC to quantum-safe addresses.
🔹 David Carvalho warns that $BTC BTC could be hacked in 5 years unless it upgrades cryptography—30% of $BTC BTC is still stored in vulnerable addresses.
🔹 Chamath Palihapitiya claims Bitcoin’s SHA-256 could be broken within 2–5 years using ~8,000 quantum chips.
🚨 Bottom line: Quantum threats are not science fiction anymore. Should Bitcoin update its security now—or wait?
