Google published a paper on March 31 that states that Bitcoin's cryptography could be impacted by quantum computing sooner than previously stated.

Google researchers say cracking RSA encryption now needs 20x fewer qubits than previously estimated. Bitcoin uses ECC and SHA-256, which are stronger than RSA, but the timeline for cracking them may ...

Google's Quantum AI team said earlier this week that a future quantum computer could derive a bitcoin private key from a public key in roughly nine minutes. The number ricocheted across social media ...

The recent Project Eleven bounty for quantum computers cracking cryptographic keys is a joke. It provides no serious incentive at all. Recently, Project Eleven (a quantum computing research group) ...

The world could be caught off guard by quantum hackers before the end of this decade — much sooner than expected. This is the take-home message of two studies posted independently on 30 March, one a ...
