Ex-Google engineer warns Bitcoin faces security risks from quantum computing and miner incentives.

Patrick Shyu, a former engineer at Meta and Google, warns that Bitcoin is threatened by two major issues: the decline of miner incentives as new coin rewards diminish and the potential future risk from quantum computing breaking Bitcoin's cryptography. He sold his Bitcoin after a 50% price crash, citing excessive leverage and concerns over Bitcoin's long-term security. Developers are exploring quantum-resistant upgrades, but the next Bitcoin halving in 2028 could intensify miner revenue challenges, potentially weakening network security if fees don't compensate.
