Quantum computing is advancing faster than expected, forcing Bitcoin and the broader crypto industry to prepare for a post-quantum future.

The day when a quantum computer can crack commonly used forms of encryption is drawing closer. The world isn’t prepared, experts say.

Because it can easily break traditional encryption methods, the powerful technology could quickly make current cybersecurity methods useless.

Quantum power is calculated in qubits. Every 10 qubits supports 1,024 computations, giving hackers 1,024 times the power to break encryption in one swoop, Steward illustrated. There are now machines ...
