Google’s Quantum Leap: How Willow Chip Could Threaten Bitcoin and Crypto Security by 2025
Quantum Computing FAQs
Can quantum computers break Bitcoin today?
No. Current quantum computers like Google's Willow lack sufficient stable qubits (need millions vs current 105) and error correction to threaten SHA-256 encryption.
Which cryptocurrencies are quantum-resistant?
Several newer projects like QRL and IOTA use quantum-proof algorithms, while major chains (BTC, ETH) are actively developing upgrades expected 2026-2028.
Should I move my crypto to quantum-safe wallets now?
Yes for long-term holdings. Ledger and Trezor already offer quantum-resistant options, though immediate risk remains low.
