According to BlockBeats, Elon Musk recently inquired about the potential of quantum computing to compromise Bitcoin's SHA-256 algorithm, following a publication by IBM on quantum computing research. Grok responded, citing evaluations from NIST, IBM, and experts, indicating that the likelihood of quantum computing breaking SHA-256 within the next five years is nearly zero, and by 2035, it will remain below 10%. This would require millions of error-correcting quantum bits, whereas current systems support only about 1,000 noisy quantum bits. Bitcoin's hash value remains secure for now.
