🧠 How quantum computing could affect $BTC
Bitcoin relies on:
• SHA-256 hashing (mining security)
• ECDSA signatures (wallet security)
A sufficiently advanced quantum computer could theoretically:
• Derive private keys from public keys
• Threaten exposed wallets
But:
It would require millions of stable qubits
Bitcoin can upgrade its cryptography if needed
Blockchains evolve. They’re not static.
Would you support a quantum-resistant Bitcoin fork if needed?
