$BTC
On April 24, 2026, an independent researcher named Giancarlo Lelli officially received a reward of 1 BTC from the Project Eleven.
๐ Hack details: Lelli leveraged a quantum computer (accessed via the cloud) to successfully crack a 15-bit Elliptic Curve (ECC) key.
๐ Importance: Even though 15-bit is tiny compared to Bitcoin's current 256-bit standard, this is a frightening milestone as the scale of this quantum attack has increased 512 times compared to previous experiments in just one year.
