CoinVoice has recently learned that, according to Cointelegraph, Charles Edwards, the founder of the quantitative Bitcoin and digital asset fund Capriole, warned that if Bitcoin does not possess quantum resistance by 2028, its price could plummet significantly below $50,000. The potential threat of quantum computing to the cryptocurrency industry has long been a subject of controversy and is seen as a key turning point on the horizon. Theoretically, more advanced computers capable of breaking encryption could reveal user keys, exposing sensitive data and user funds to malicious actors. It is generally believed that this threat is still years away from becoming a reality; however, Edwards predicts that this day could arrive as early as 2028, and if the industry does not act swiftly, Bitcoin's price could crash. Critics argue that the threat posed by quantum computers is overstated, as this technology is still decades away from being feasible, and banking giants and other traditional targets would be breached before Bitcoin.
