Quantum computing has long focused on hardware and scalability, but now, as the technology becomes ever more promising and ...

Shor’s algorithm and its threat of decrypting RSA-based security can be considered the basis of a quantum carry trade. Developed by Peter Shor in 1994, this algorithm demonstrates that a quantum ...

El Salvador has quietly executed one of the most forward-thinking Bitcoin security upgrades in crypto history, redistributing ...

El Salvador bought another 21 BTC on Sunday during the country’s Bitcoin Day. The purchase brings its total Bitcoin holdings ...

One notable example is the $34 million secured by British quantum algorithms specialist Phasecraft from a group of investors, ...

Overview: Quantum computing poses a threat to Bitcoin’s security by potentially compromising ECDSA signatures and SHA-256 ...

In one sign of the potential gains, a researcher at Google claimed recently to have devised a 20-fold reduction in the scale of a quantum computer that would be needed to run Shor’s algorithm, which ...

However, Regev’s new algorithm, described in a pre-print published on arXiv, could potentially reduce those requirements substantially. Regev has essentially reworked Shor’s algorithm such that it’s ...

El Salvador secures its reserves by splitting holdings into multiple wallets, mitigating Bitcoin quantum security risks from future threats.

In 1994, Peter Shor, an American mathematician working at Bell Labs, published a paper with a wonky title and earth-shaking implications. In “Polynomial-Time Algorithms for Prime Factorization ...
