Google: Future quantum computers can crack BTC private keys in just 9 minutes

2026-03-31 13:50:48

Google's research shows that future quantum computers may only need 9 minutes to crack Bitcoin private keys, which is 1 minute shorter than the average block time of 10 minutes for BTC.

The study warns that memory pool attacks could become a real threat and urges an immediate transition to post-quantum cryptography.
