Casa co-founder: Quantum computing will not break Bitcoin in the short term, but it may take 5 to 10 years to upgrade the Bitcoin network.
BlockBeats News, on December 21, Casa co-founder Jameson Lopp posted on social media, stating, "I have been publicly discussing the risks that quantum computing poses to bitcoin for 18 months. My main conclusion is: I sincerely hope that the development of quantum computing will stagnate or even regress, because adapting bitcoin for the post-quantum era will be extremely challenging for many reasons."
Quantum computers will not break the bitcoin network in the short term. We will continue to monitor their development. However, a comprehensive overhaul of the bitcoin network (as well as an unprecedented migration of funds) could take 5 to 10 years. We should hope for the best, but also prepare for the worst."
