As IBM, Microsoft, and Google unveil advanced quantum processors, the potential threat to Bitcoin's security is gaining attention. While current quantum systems are not yet capable of breaking Bitcoin's ECDSA signatures, the risk is significant enough to prompt the community to consider proposals like BIP 360 and QRAMP. Experts estimate a 50% chance that quantum computers could pose a real threat to Bitcoin by 2030–2035, necessitating a shift to quantum-resistant algorithms. The Bitcoin network faces the challenge of implementing major technical upgrades to maintain its security in the face of this emerging technology.
