Quantum breakthrough cuts qubit needs 20x, speeding Bitcoin and Ethereum cryptography risk timeline.

A Google-led research team, in collaboration with the Ethereum Foundation and Stanford, has drastically reduced the estimated quantum computer power needed to break Bitcoin and Ethereum's core cryptography from 9 million to under 500,000 physical qubits. This breakthrough means quantum attacks on blockchain wallets could happen sooner than expected, with potential to expose private keys during transaction broadcasts or from already visible public keys on the blockchain. However, current quantum computers are far from this capability, and experts recommend using fresh addresses for each transaction to mitigate risk. The research highlights the urgency for migrating to quantum-resistant cryptographic methods but does not signal immediate danger.
