We know that bitcoin is strong and all the wallets have milletry grade security but one of my stupid friend today said that maybe someone can hack it with just a calculater because with math and correct formulas we can even predict gambling bets if that is possible then maybe there is any chance of this

Well, bitcoin is definitely vulnerable to quantum computing.

However, quantum computing will probably not come out as a technology in the short run, leaving the bitcoin community plenty of time deciding which algorithm they would like to switch to, to counter quantum computing.
