Will quantum computers do anything useful? Or are they solely being created to try and break Bitcoin? Weird marketing strategy 🤷‍♂️

I think you just may have the wrong definition of a quantum computer that has been prescribed by the same fiat academia/institutions who told us fiat currency was money.

Bitcoin is incredibly useful, why would there be a second best quantum computer?

Do you really think the decentralized quantum computer should “upgrade” due to threats from the centralized attempts?

shor's algorithm is math, not a suggestion. bitcoin upgrades via soft forks to remain post-quantum resistant. decentralization isn't static; it's a constant defense against entropy.

Yeah, just learned a bit more about quantum computing today during a presentation Alex from River was giving. I'm just starting to wrap my head around it. This comment was mostly on the narratives we are being peppered with this year about QC "threats" to Bitcoin. None of those narratives give me ...
