Hello, since I learned about quantum computers, I worry about the security of my bitcoin, I've been reading a lot and researching the subject and I bring you a paragraph from one of the many articles I read, and I would like to know your opinion about that.
"Experts estimate that even primitive quantum computers will be able to reverse engineer private keys from public addresses by 2027. That’s a blink of an eye in the computing world, but it’s just far enough out to give Bitcoin room for widespread adoption. If there’s suddenly a system for breaking private keys in a society awash with Bitcoin, a big problem develops very quickly."
After reading that paragraph of the article I wonder, what will happen with bitcoin in 2027?
