Re: Can Quantum Computing Break Blockchain?
It’s a legit concern! Quantum computers could theoretically crack current encryption methods (like SHA-256), putting Bitcoin and other blockchains at risk. But projects are already working on solutions—like quantum-resistant algorithms and new consensus mechanisms. I found this clear explainer on how Quantum Coin and other initiatives are tackling the problem: . It breaks down the tech in plain language and highlights how crypto might evolve to stay secure. Super timely read!
