Google’s Warning: Crypto May Not Have As Much Time As We Thought

Description

A new quantum computing breakthrough may have shortened the timeline for when crypto’s core security assumptions break. On this episode of Unchained, Laura Shin speaks with Alex Pruden, Co-Founder & CEO of Project Eleven, and Dolev Bluvstein, CEO of Oratomic, about new research suggesting cryptographically relevant quantum computers could arrive sooner than expected. They discuss how recent advances could enable attacks on Bitcoin and Ethereum, including real-time “on-spend” attacks, why the industry’s planned transition to post-quantum cryptography may be lagging, and what needs to happen now to avoid systemic risk. The conversation also explores how vulnerable different parts of crypto infrastructure are — from wallets to staking systems to DeFi — and whether the timeline for quantum readiness is already too tight. #Unchained #Bitcoin #Ethereum #QuantumComputing #CryptoSecurity _______________________________________________________ #bitcoin #ethereum #crypto #cryptocurrencies ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Subscribe to our channel!
