Justin Sun warns AI and quantum risks make Bitcoin less safe than investors realize.

Justin Sun, founder of TRON, expressed increased concern over Bitcoin's security due to advances in AI and quantum computing. He highlighted that AI-driven mathematical breakthroughs could allow classical computers to access early Bitcoin wallets or private keys before quantum computers become fully capable. This risk is separate from the longer-term threat posed by quantum computers breaking Bitcoin's cryptography. To address this, TRON has tested post-quantum cryptography on its testnet, though no mainnet launch date is set, and Ethereum developers are also working on quantum-resistant updates. These developments suggest the crypto industry and Bitcoin ETF investors may be underestimating emerging technological threats to Bitcoin's security.

Justin Sun's concerns about AI and quantum risks to Bitcoin come as a backdrop to today's cryptocurrency market data on Pluang.
