A foreigner shared a picture of Bitcoin and asked:
Is it really possible for this to happen?
Someone replied:
Yes, theoretically it could happen if a powerful quantum computer is ever built. Such a machine could use Shor’s algorithm to crack early Bitcoin wallets, possibly exposing Satoshi Nakamoto’s coins. That kind of event could shake market confidence and create temporary chaos.
My take:
This is still highly theoretical, not a near-term threat. Bitcoin developers are already aware of quantum risks, and quantum-resistant upgrades can be implemented long before it becomes a real danger. For now, it’s more science talk than market reality.
