TD₿: Bitcoin & Quantum Computing with Andrew Fursman
TL;DR The risk of quantum computing hurting Bitcoin is overexaggerated.
Hey Bitcoiners,
One common critique that never seems to go away is the threat of quantum computing eventually hacking the Bitcoin protocol.
Quantum computing attacks always grab the news headlines because it’s an exciting and scary new idea.
However, only a few people in the world understand both quantum computing and Bitcoin. Don’t trust Bitcoin critics who somehow become experts on both subjects overnight.
This podcast with Andrew Fursman is a good listen to learn directly from a quantum computing expert on why this threat to Bitcoin is overblown (04/07/2021).
Don’t trust, verify.
Tick tock next block,
