Can Quantum Computing Break Bitcoin? What You Need to Know About Q-Day 🔐

When is Q-Day? “Q-Day” is the moment quantum computers become powerful enough to crack classical encryption. According to McKinsey, RSA-2048 — today’s standard — could fall in just 2 to 10 years. Bitcoin relies on an even weaker scheme, elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), which could be the first domino to fall.
