What about doing a work of 2.5 billion years in under 3.5 minutes? This is what a quantum computer is already able to do. Will all this astonishing power be able to someday break cryptography, including the one used in bitcoin?

That astronomical computing speed is already possible in both theory and practice, but the costs of building and maintaining a quantum computer powerful enough for that is so infeasible. 😐

Maybe bitcoin cryptography will be safe while it stays true.
