Spreading (and believing) nonsense is why the upgrade to a quantum-safe Bitcoin will highly likely be a big mess (if it even happens).

@xyzdkfe Experts estimate that breaking RSA-2048 in 24h is 15–30 years away. secp256k1 should be easier to break, and there’s no 24h (or any other) time constraint for exposed Bitcoin pubkeys. With this in mind, when do you think this could happen?...

@Travis_Sch @pauli_group @evolutionQinc In the report you shared, experts estimate that breaking RSA-2048 in 24h is 15–30 years away. secp256k1 should be easier to break, and there’s no 24h (or any other) time constraint for exposed Bitcoin pubkeys. With this in mind,...
1. Fiat currencies are not fake, obviously. Their weakness is that governments control issuance, and issuance is often quite high as a result. 2. Advantage of BTC is that issuance is programmed + decentralized, thus immutable. Energy, i.e. PoW is not...
