- rtkwe 2y agoThere's no guarantees that breakthrough is coming anytime soon. Scaling up the number of qubits in a processor is very hard and it's why progress has been pretty slow over the last decade.
- aorloff 2y agoCrypto is your guarantee that a quantum breakthrough has not already occurred
- rtkwe 2y agoNot 100% sure what you mean but it depends on who makes it. A government would have better things to do with an encryption destroying quantum computer than crashing blockchains. Personally I wouldn't crash crypto coins immediately, I'd make some money off them first then wipe it out. Also I was talking about the future. It may be impractical for centuries to make a quantum computer large enough to factor large current cryptographic keys. Last I read the difficulty of maintaining coherence has a non linear relation to the number of qubits involved.
- snapcaster 2y agoUnclear this will "happen for sure", but even if it did there are quantum-proof encryption techniques
