Every online bank transfer, private message and Bitcoin transaction rests on the assumption that some math problems are ...

Abstract: This paper presents a lightweight hardware accelerator optimized for elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), supporting three standardized curves over the prime field GF($2^{255}-19$ ): ...

Zcash price pumped hard in 2025 as privacy coins outpaced other cryptocurrencies, but what two coins are worth watching in ...

In December 2024, Google's Willow chip became the first quantum processor to demonstrate "below threshold" error correction. That's the holy grail physicists have chased for 30 years. The chip showed ...

Quantum computing won’t break Bitcoin in 2026, but attackers are already preparing. Here’s how crypto is moving toward post-quantum security, and how ready it is.

Even if quantum machines capable of breaking Bitcoin’s cryptography are decades away, the work required to update software, infrastructure and user behavior would be measured in years, not months.

Charles Edwards warns that quantum computing could depress Bitcoin price below $50,000 if the network does not address quantum issues. His view is provocative but ...

For years, the conversation around quantum computing and cryptocurrency has been dominated by a single, breathless question: Will a quantum breakthrough kill Bitcoin? The fear is simple enough.

Quantum computing is not currently an existential threat to Bitcoin, but as capital becomes more institutional and long-term, ...

However, Michael Saylor, the pioneer of BTC corporate treasury, doesn’t share a similar urgency. In fact, he recently noted that quantum computing will “harden BTC,” not break it.

Bitcoin’s security is about signatures, not encryption, and the threat isn’t nearly as immediate or simple as some FUD suggests.

Instagram is introducing a new tool that lets you see and control your algorithm, starting with Reels, the company announced on Wednesday. The new tool, called “Your Algorithm,” lets you view the ...
