@AutismCapital Quantum computing is getting scary fast.
Research from Google suggests future machines could break Bitcoin private keys in minutes, challenging core crypto security.
Post-quantum readiness isn’t optional anymore
English
@nic_carter No need to panic. This is just how tech evolves.
If anything, it’s a reminder that we should start preparing for post-quantum security now, not later.
English
Good morning
Now is not the time to panic
The time to panic is if Bitcoin devs read these two papers and double down on their chosen solution of “hoping it goes away”
Then panic.

@nic_carter @_jonasschnelli_ Focusing on PQC is the right approach. Post-quantum is clearly the next cycle.
English
It’s over.
No one trusts your approach of “betting the future of a trillion dollar asset on a vain hope that technology doesn’t advance”.
And this paper and modality isn’t even the only one you have to worry about. There was also a caltech paper on neutral atoms today which is arguably more concerning.
Someone will get there, make no doubt about it. Hopefully later rather than sooner.
I would focus your efforts on PQC rather than complaining or vilifying me.

Going from ~1,000 noisy qubits to 500k fault-tolerant ones by 2029 isn’t just a "roadmap",… it’s a **physical miracle** or a massive bluff.

Specifically, this paper. It's a brand new resource estimate that's wildly lower than prior estimates of what it would take to break ECC-256. Featuring the Google Quantum AI team + Justin Drake + Dan Boneh quantumai.google/static/site-as…

BREAKING:
Developers are actively working on a Bitcoin Improvement Proposal to protect Bitcoin against quantum computing attacks, with a testnet already deployed.

🚨 THIS IS ABSOLUTELY WILD Google just released a quantum paper, and it's really a nightmare. Here's what you need to know: - Breaking crypto encryption now only requires 500,000 qubits. That’s 20 times less than what experts previously thought was needed. - An attack could happen in just 9 minutes. Bitcoin’s block confirmation takes longer than that. - The top 1,000 Ethereum wallets could be cracked in 9 days. Crypto projects have roughly 3 years to upgrade their security before quantum computers make current encryption obsolete.

@dimabuterin @warrbo @shadowy_vistas @Aella_Girl Quantum computing is all over the headlines right now, especially after Google’s research suggesting future quantum machines could potentially crack Bitcoin private keys in minutes.
How serious is this, and are we already entering the post-quantum era for crypto? Thoughts?

a long time ago i had the experience of chatting irl with someone well known on twitter, well connected, well platformed, influential, etc. He was smart, seemed to have domain expertise in his technical field. But gradually over the course of the conversation I realized he didn't actually know what he was talking about.
He used complicated words, but in subtly off ways, and would reply to questions with things that sounded like answers but actually weren't.He'd confidently reference concepts that I think he assumed I didn't know, but I did know, and I knew that the term he used didn't actually have anything to do with his claim, etc.
But his confidence was intense and radiating, and the speed at which he talked and the complex vocabulary he used really disguised what I perceived to be both a lack of deep understanding of the material and also a lack of self-awareness that he didn't have deep understanding!
I've def met people who disagree with me online who I think *do* engage deeply with the concepts, but this specific one didn't, and it was a little blackpilling for me to realize that he had such a following from a bunch of people who couldn't tell the difference.

As CZ said, crypto isn’t going anywhere. Post-quantum is just the next cycle.
Smart money isn’t scared. They’re already positioning.
Post-quantum coins aren’t a “what if” anymore… they’re a when.
Secure your bags accordingly.
Or fade and watch from the sidelines
CZ 🔶 BNB@cz_binance
Saw some people panicking or asking about quantum computing's impact on crypto. At a high level, all crypto has to do is to upgrade to Quantum-Resistant (Post-Quantum) Algorithms. So, no need to panic. 😂 In practice, there are some execution considerations. It's hard to organize upgrades in a decentralized world. There will likely be many debates on which algorithm(s) to use, resulting in some forks. And some dead project may not upgrade at all. Might be a good to cleanse out those projects anyway. New code may introduce other bugs or security issues in the short term. People who self custody will have to migrate their coins to new wallets. This brings to the question of Satoshi's bitcoins. If those coins move, then it means he/she is still around, which is interesting to know. If they don't move (in a certain period of time), it might be better to lock (or effectively burn) those addresses so that they don't go to the first hacker who cracks it. There is also the difficulty of identifying all his addresses, and not confuse with some old hodlers. Anyway, it's a different topic for later. Fundamentally: It's always easier to encrypt than decrypt. More computing power is always good. Crypto will stay, post quantum.

Our Giga brain dev, and Quantum autist Vitalik Buterin has just received 2% supply of PQC
Really looking forward to hearing his thoughts on this entire topic 💎

This is wild! Quantum is trending on X with over 27K posts already.
If you’re not at least a bit bullish here, you might be underestimating what’s coming.

We might start seeing some long-dormant wallets come back to life with all this quantum news.
nairolf@0xNairolf
6.7 million BTC are sitting in addresses vulnerable to quantum attacks yeah

If you haven’t checked X yet, now’s a good time. This topic is gaining serious traction, with several major CT accounts already covering it.
It’s rapidly gaining traction across searches and trending sections, making it worth keeping an eye on.

🚨 Google has sounded the quantum alarm 🚨 Today, they released groundbreaking progress towards breaking crypto using a quantum computer. TLDR - Existing cryptography is dead. Mempool attacks are real. We must migrate to post-quantum now. Thread 🧵

The terrifying power of quantum computer.
Research from Google suggests future machines could crack Bitcoin private keys in minutes, breaking core assumptions of crypto security.
The game is evolving fast—post-quantum readiness isn’t optional anymore, it’s essential.

Google just dropped a bombshell and cryptos have to move to post-quantum cryptography.

Many are wondering "what Google saw" that caused them to revise their post-quantum cryptography transition deadline to 2029 last week. It was this: research.google/blog/safeguard…
