Bitcoin Quantum Attack Estimate Just Fell by More Than Half

A Bitcoin quantum attack just got a little easier on paper — and that is exactly why researchers are paying attention.A new study from researchers linked to the Ethereum Foundation, Theta Labs, StarkWare and other organizations has cut the estimated computational work for a key part of a future quantum attack by more than half compared with a benchmark published by Google Quantum AI in March.The result does not mean Bitcoin or Ethereum can be cracked today. It does, however, move an import
