This is just a random news I get but people are really talking about it.
I have just read about it not long ago but I have also read somewhere before that by 2030, it is possible that ECDSA becomes vulnerable to quantum computing. This is 2025 which means 2030 is just 5 years away from now.
What do you think about this disturbing news, I have been read more than 5 news about this and I saw another one today. What are bitcoin developers doing about it?
If you need the source that I get today's news from, I can post it which has the the title that I have as the title on this thread.
if they can crack btc sha 256 they can crack most banks wide open.
also most credit cards 💳.
So the issue is not “real” in the way you state it.
does it mean back to cash carried in bags and placed in vaults with no online security?
we would have more to worry about than btc.
But ser, you were here before the majority of users that has posted in this topic, you're also a technical person and a miner. What's your opinion about OP's claim that Bitcoin, or SHA-256, has merely FIVE years left before Quantum Computers will start breaking it?
Did you say it's "not an issue" because there are bigger things in the world to worry about, or did you say it because it will take more than "five years" to build an actual Quantum Computer to break SHA-256?
