As of August 2025, the world’s most powerful quantum computers, like IBM’s 1,121-qubit “Condor” and Google’s experimental “Sycamore” models, are nowhere near capable of cracking Bitcoin. It’s ...

The development of quantum computing is fundamentally reshaping the rules of cybersecurity. Traditional public key encryption mechanisms such as RSA and ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) rely on the ...

Bitcoin relies on elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) to secure wallet addresses and validate ownership. But ECC, like RSA, is vulnerable to Shor’s algorithm — a quantum computing method capable of ...
