The penetration of the quantum computing of Microsoft Rignits Bitcoin Fears – DL News

Microsoft He says a new segment for her It is the penetration of quantum computing that can solve the scaling problems that are constantly plagued in the field.

But some of the encryption are concerned that the development will speed up the inevitable: that the quantum computers will one day be able to break the encryption that supports a lot of industry of $ 3.3 trillion.

Pierre Luke Dalir Dimers, a scientist at Calgary University, says, don’t worry yet.

And he told DL newsIn reference to the consensus that the quantum computers will threaten the old bitcoin portfolios – the most vulnerable to use – in About five years.

Majurana 1

The new Chip was named from Microsoft, Majurana 1, on the name Majurana Fermion, a type of issue that the chip is exploited to produce the so -called Qubits, and units of information that works with quantum computers.

What makes Majurana Fermions distinctive is that it does not face errors as much as they are the quantum computing methods that exist using ultra -conductivity, which makes them easier in theory.

“For a long time, Majoraanas may surpass the delivery of high -conductivity, but may not be 10 years ago or so,” said Dalir Dimers. “The results in the experimental paper indicate that they still have some engineering.”

High computers that take advantage of quantum mechanical phenomena have long been a theoretical threat to encryption.

Most encryption projects have plans to make themselves as quantitative. However, the sudden penetration could still pick up developers.

The problem of 107 billion dollars

Not all Blockchain encryption is created equally.

The sales portfolios to the government, or P2PK, which links the money directly to the user’s public key and requires a special “password”, it will be it The first to fall To quantum computers.

Satoshi Nakamoto, the constant creator of Bitcoin, has more than 1.1 million coins – estimated at about $ 107 billion – in the old P2PK governor.

For most users, avoiding a computer threat is simple as moving coins to a newer wallet that does not use P2PK – a somewhat simple task.

But Nakamoto has not touched his governor since 2010. It is not known whether the bitcoin creator has chosen not reaching the governor, or, as some believe, to the wealth of Bitcoin to his grave.

“The File X post.

Dalir Dimers said that the storming of Nakamoto portfolios is one of the easiest applications for large quantum computers in the future.

Moreover, it is possible that the quantum computers will become strong enough to process the most advanced encryption, such as Rivest-Shamir-Eleman, or RSA.

RSA is used in some Blockchains such as Hedra Hashgraph and Arweave. But it is widely used to secure data transfer on the Internet, as in emails.

Although the Microsoft Majurana 1 chip is likely not to develop quickly enough to compete in the race to break the Nakamoto governor, it may “become a dangerous competitor to break RSA in 2035”.
