🚀 Google's Quantum AI Team Highlights Cryptography Vulnerability in Bitcoin and Ethereum

Google's Quantum AI team has released a new whitepaper indicating that breaking the cryptography used by Bitcoin and Ethereum may require fewer than 500,000 physical qubits, a figure significantly lower than the millions often cited in recent years. According to NS3.AI, Google researchers suggest that a prepared attacker could complete the final step in approximately nine minutes after a Bitcoin public key appears in a live transaction, compared to the roughly 10 minutes needed for confirmation.

The researchers also pointed out that Taproot, a Bitcoin upgrade, may increase exposure because it makes public keys visible by default. The paper estimates that approximately 6.9 million Bitcoin are stored in wallets with exposed public keys, potentially heightening vulnerability to quantum attacks.

🚀 Algorand's ALGO Token Surges 50% Following Quantum AI Paper Release

Algorand's ALGO token experienced a significant increase of approximately 50% over the past week, reaching $0.12. According to NS3.AI, this surge followed the release of a Google Quantum AI paper that highlighted Algorand's active implementation of post-quantum cryptography. The paper noted that larger and older networks like Bitcoin and Ethereum might encounter slower and more complex transitions to quantum-resistant infrastructure due to their inherent size, age, and design choices. Algorand has integrated Falcon digital signatures for smart transactions and state proofs, although its core consensus and built-in transactions continue to utilize Ed25519.

🚀 Google Quantum AI Reduces Resources Needed to Break Bitcoin Signatures

Google Quantum AI research has significantly reduced the estimated resources required to break Bitcoin's ECDSA signatures by approximately 20 times. According to NS3.AI, this advancement places the theoretical threshold near 500,000 physical qubits. The primary risk is associated with transaction signing and addresses with exposed public keys, rather than Bitcoin mining or the entire blockchain.
