The countdown has begun: experts warn that quantum computers may soon be powerful enough to crack Bitcoin's encryption, opening the door to a silent collapse of the world’s cryptocurrency.

Billionaire investor Chamath Palihapitiya estimates around 8,000 quantum chips could break SHA-256 in 2-5 years .

Cybersecurity veteran David Carvalho warns attackers are already stockpiling encrypted blockchain data, waiting for the day they can decrypt it with quantum computing and AI .

Around 25-30% of all Bitcoin (6-7 million BTC) sits in vulnerable legacy wallets—potentially exposed once quantum threats arrive .

While institutions like NASA and Europol urge adoption of post-quantum cryptography, developers still face major delays in upgrading Bitcoin .

Are we on the brink of Q-Day — the day encryption falls? This video explores the looming quantum threat to crypto, what experts say, and whether Bitcoin is ready for the post-quantum future.#QuantumThreat #BitcoinSecurity #CryptoCountdown #QuantumComputing
