Indeed bitcoin attracted so much attention and I do believe some would attempt to attack the blockchain to gain control all the funds exist. But it would really be a long shot to do that probably with a super ASIC computer miners will perform a brute force attack but like I have mentioned, its a long shot.

Application-Specific Integrated Circuits [1] can only perform one task (the one they were created for).
Miners ASICS do calculate SHA256 hashes. They can't start bruteforcing private keys.

Professional bitcoin diggers will set up a system to infiltrate the computer to steal data and dig a bitcoin. They will receive free BTC.

Professional bitcoin miner don't do that.
Its the blackhat developer who creates malware which will then mine coins for them.
