Everyone is thinking about quantum wrong.
For sure, “Q-day”, when quantum machines finally have the capacity to pick the locks of the world’s existing encryption defenses, is coming.
No one knows when.
But AI is accelerating it—breakthroughs are happening.
And it could be very soon…putting approximately $500 trillion in assets at risk!
How soon? Well, the US government is telling companies to migrate critical systems now.
So, faced with the biggest threat to cryptography in history….
If only there was an industry with a concentration of world class cryptographers…
But the good news is that there is—and it’s the crypto industry.
No, quantum won’t kill crypto.
Quantum will be a major unlock and forcing function.
It will accelerate the world onchain.
