Researchers have reportedly reduced the security barrier protecting Bitcoin against quantum attacks by 82%, with the estimated cost of breaking a cryptographic key falling to around $59. The finding revives debate over how vulnerable Bitcoin's encryption is to rapidly advancing quantum computing, and how soon it might fall to roughly $10 per key.
Why now: New research suggests quantum computers could break Bitcoin's encryption far more cheaply than previously believed, raising urgent questions about the cryptocurrency's future security.
