In Bitcoin nodes follow the chain with the most amount of work. That is not necessarily the "longest" chain. You can use a single ASIC to mine the longest chain probably in less than an hour (by manipulating the timestamps, etc.) at difficulty 1 from the genesis block but it won't have the "most amount of work" hence it will not be followed.
If you want to "re-write" history, you need to have most hashrate to perform the most work (14+ years worth of work) which is obviously impossible.
14+ years "worth" of work....?
oh......... can't you see what I meant?
If you take TODAY's hardware and put them to work BACK....
from start.....
and ADD all that new work
buddy....
witch chain would have more work in terms of Difficulty ?
PS - guys, I can't answer that fast.... the site Is slowing me dow because of this new account...

Have you seen the parallel computing power of a quantum computer now? and the evolution of that area of expertise?
Have you seen what 'KIDS' are able to do now with LLMs lile ChatGPT ? do you see a pattern here? and where I am going...
Yes I see you are using buzzwords. A quantum computer is not going to magically be able to come up with enough hashrate to attack bitcoin, you still have to be able to compute 10
19 hashes per second to come close which is not yet possible.
And AI is not even applicable here, even with most advanced alien technology level AI you still need computing power to compute hashes!
Ok, let's keep it terrestrial here... LOL
I will try to 'magically' come up with a PoC on this...

Have you seen what 'KIDS' are able to do now with LLMs lile ChatGPT ?
Such as? I'd like to see the technological advancements achieved through using a stupid apologetic AI talking model!
It is not STUPID...
It uses a Language Model I helped to Train....
It is as good as the person using it,
and even better If that person actually learns something new!
But are here to talk Bitcoin ! not AI...
So I'll 'try' to make something that proves this...
Or I'll throw the towel!
