#恶意攻击手段 Is quantum computing about to "break" the encryption world? Don't panic, let's first clarify the facts 🔍



The latest news says that quantum computing won't threaten Bitcoin until 2026, but that doesn't mean there's no risk — in fact, we need to start taking precautions now. Here's what experts say: 90% of the quantum threat is just marketing hype; the real trouble won't appear for at least another ten years.

But there's a particularly alarming point to consider: hackers are already "collecting now, decrypting later." They are currently accumulating encrypted data, waiting for quantum computers to become truly mature so they can crack it all at once. This move is quite ruthless 😅

Key data you need to know: approximately 25-30% of Bitcoin (nearly 4 million coins) are stored in addresses with exposed public keys, which are high-risk areas. The most vulnerable part is the ECDSA algorithm, and repeatedly using the same address significantly increases the risk of attack.

So what should we do now? **Avoid reusing addresses** — this is the most straightforward protective measure. The good news is that the community is already taking action; quantum-resistant wallets are coming soon. Instead of waiting for a crisis to happen, it's better to develop good on-chain hygiene habits now.

Web3 security is the foundation of all innovation. Proactive prevention is not paranoia but a responsible attitude towards the future ecosystem!
