Beschrijving

Quantum computing is being called Bitcoin's biggest existential risk. Some say it could break elliptic curve cryptography by 2028. Others say that's physics fiction. In this episode of No Second Best, we break down the real quantum threat to Bitcoin, Shor's algorithm, ECDSA exposure, SHA-256 resilience, institutional incentives, BIP-360, post-quantum cryptography, and what would actually have to happen for Bitcoin security to fail. Is this a real long-term risk, or another exaggerated cycle of fear? We separate engineering reality from projection — and explain why the evidentiary standard hasn't been met. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZZkQRqnNE4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7-l7gzm_PE
