If quantum stocks start to stir, that narrative is bound to come to crypto. But why do you keep talking about quantum? -Rivest–Shamir–Adleman -Elliptic Curve Cryptography -> Also referred to as RSA or ECC in the encryption/security field -> You can just think of it as an encryption method - HTTPS, Bitcoin (blockchain), smartphone security chips, and digital signatures are representative examples of systems that use ECC - Time required to decrypt RSA * CPU - 6 trillion years * GPU - 75 billion years * QPU - 1 week The theory is that RSA and ECC can simply be compromised by QPU (Quantum Computing). -------------------------- However, excluding Bitcoin, the others are corporate in nature, so the issue can be resolved if the CEO changes the security method. Because Bitcoin is decentralized, there are many practical difficulties in reaching consensus and upgrading. --> This is the logic that Bitcoin is dangerous. Conversely, Vitalik has been arguing about the dangers of quantum technology for several years, and he has actually collaborated with Google Quantum and is currently working on Ethereum The Foundation and Google Quantum are working closely together. Above all, Bitmaxi and Bitcoin developers are dismissing the risks of quantum mechanics as merely one of many 'theories'.
