When is Q-Day?

β€œQ-Day” is the moment quantum computers become powerful enough to crack classical encryption. According to McKinsey, RSA-2048 β€” today’s standard β€” 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.
