Bitcoin Must Upgrade or Fall Victim to Quantum Computing in 5 Years

Post Quantum Encryption: The Critical Security Shift US Tech Teams Need to Make Now

The US cybersecurity market is projected to reach $278.5 billion by 2025, yet a staggering 73% of organizations remain unprepared for the quantum computing threat that could render current encryption obsolete within the next decade. As quantum computers edge closer to breaking RSA and ECC encryption the backbone of today’s digital security US tech professionals face […] The post Post Quantum Encryption: The Critical Security Shift US Tech Teams …

Bitcoin At Risk: Quantum Attacks Can Break It All, Experts Warn

Bitcoin currently secures transactions with the Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA). However, cryptography researchers are concerned about the system’s vulnerability to future quantum attacks. A powerful quantum computer running Shor’s algorithm could decipher private keys from exposed public ones. This allows an attacker to seize user funds before they are officially confirmed on the blockchain. The risk becomes critical during t…

RSAC in focus: Quantum computing and security

Experts at RSAC 2025 emphasize the need for urgent action to secure data against future cryptographic risks posed by quantum computing

Bitcoin’s cryptography has a deadline and it may be 2030

Experts are debating when quantum computing could compromise Bitcoin’s security, particularly its elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) and SHA-256 hashing. The debate arises from advancements in quantum computing, such as IBM’s plan to launch the IBM Quantum Starling by 2029. Google quantum researcher Craig Gidney suggested in May 2025 a potential threat window between 2030 and 2035, dependent on advancements in error correction. Gidney’s research …
