Bitcoin vs Quantum: Is the Future of Crypto Already at Risk?

Is Bitcoin really safe?or is it one quantum breakthrough away from collapse? Quantum computing poses the most serious long-term threat to Bitcoin ever seen. Algorithms like Shor?s could break Bitcoin?s elliptic-curve cryptography, while Grover?s could weaken its hashing protections. That means billions of dollars could be at risk once powerful quantum computers arrive. The scariest part? Nearly 25% of Bitcoin stored in older or reused addresses may already be vulnerable. These legacy wallets could be the first to fall if a quantum attacker strikes. Developers are racing against time to implement post-quantum cryptography (PQC), using solutions like lattice-based cryptography, hash-based signatures, and even quantum-safe consensus mechanisms. But upgrading Bitcoin isn?t simple?it could require months of downtime or even a hard fork to transition the network. In this video, we?ll break down: ? Why quantum computing is a real threat to Bitcoin ? Which wallets and addresses are most
