Key Takeaways
- Kev tshawb fawb tshiab qhia tau hais tias quantum computers yuav muaj ib hnub tuaj yeem rhuav tshem cov encryption uas underpins Bitcoin thiab lwm yam cryptocurrencies.
- Tab sis qee tus kws tshaj lij hais tias crypto encryption tuaj yeem raug txhawb kom tiv thaiv cov neeg nyiag khoom siv quantum computers.
- Honeywell tab tom ua haujlwm ntawm kev ua blockchain tiv thaiv quantum xam, siv lub cev kho vajtse uas supercomputers yuav tsis tuaj yeem nkag mus tau deb.
Koj Bitcoin tej zaum yuav muaj ib hnub muaj kev cuam tshuam rau hackers.
Kev tshawb fawb tshiab qhia tau hais tias yuav ua li cas lub computer quantum tuaj yeem rhuav tshem kev nkag ntawm cryptocurrencies. Qhov kev tshawb pom tshiab kawg no yog ib feem ntawm qhov kev txhawj xeeb loj zuj zus tias cov thev naus laus zis encryption tam sim no yuav tsis tuaj yeem tiv thaiv lub computer nce ntxiv.
"Bitcoin hnab nyiaj raug tiv thaiv los ntawm tib lub pej xeem / ntiag tug cov khub tseem ceeb uas cuam tshuam rau txhua lub khoos phis tawj," Denis Mandich, yav dhau los Tsoomfwv Meskas tus thawj coj IT thiab tam sim no CTO ntawm Qrypt, quantum entropy pib, hais rau Lifewire hauv ib qho email kev sib tham. "Classical khoos phis tawj tuaj yeem kwv yees cov yuam sij tsis muaj zog thaum lub khoos phis tawj quantum tuaj yeem suav lawv yooj yim. Thaum tus yuam sij ntiag tug tau tshwm sim, tag nrho cov cryptocurrency cuam tshuam nrog tus yuam sij pej xeem tuaj yeem raug xa mus rau txhua qhov chaw thiab ntxiv rau kev lag luam siv tau rau blockchain."
Quantum Leap
Kev tshawb fawb tshiab luam tawm hauv phau ntawv journal AVS Quantum Science, tau ua los ntawm lub tuam txhab quantum suav Universal Quantum ua ke nrog cov tsev kawm ntawv, qhia tau tias lub computer quantum nrog 13 lab lub cev qubits tuaj yeem rhuav tshem Bitcoin encryption hauv ib hnub, thiab nws yuav siv 300 lab qubit lub computer kom tawg hauv ib teev.
Cov kws tshawb fawb kuj tau tsim ib txoj hauv kev los txo lub cev loj ntawm quantum computers. Lub cryptocurrency yog ib qho txiaj ntsig digital tsim los ua haujlwm los ua qhov nruab nrab ntawm kev sib pauv los ntawm lub computer network uas tsis tso siab rau ib qho kev tswj hwm hauv nruab nrab, xws li tsoomfwv lossis tuam txhab nyiaj.
Npib cov tswv cuab cov ntaub ntawv khaws cia rau hauv lub khoos phis tawj database siv cov ntaub ntawv muaj zog.
"Plaub xyoo dhau los, peb kwv yees tias lub khoos phis tawj ion quantum yuav xav tau ib txhiab lab lub cev qubits los rhuav tshem RSA encryption, uas yog tus qauv txheej txheem ntawm kev sib txuas lus niaj hnub no, sib npaug rau qhov loj 100m2. Nrog kev tsim kho tshiab thoob plaws lub rooj tsavxwm., qhov loj ntawm lub computer tam sim no tsuas yog xav tau 2.5m2, "Mark Webber, quantum architect ntawm Universal Quantum thiab tus thawj coj ntawm daim ntawv, tau hais hauv xov xwm tshaj tawm.
Lub xeev-ntawm-the-art quantum computers hnub no tsuas muaj 50-100 qubits, Webber hais.
"Peb qhov kev kwv yees xav tau ntawm 13-300 lab lub cev qubits qhia Bitcoin yuav tsum raug suav tias muaj kev nyab xeeb los ntawm kev tawm tsam quantum rau tam sim no, tab sis quantum suav cov thev naus laus zis tau nce nrawm nrawm nrog kev cuam tshuam tsis tu ncua cuam tshuam rau qhov kev kwv yees thiab ua rau lawv muaj peev xwm ua tau zoo heev nyob rau hauv 10 xyoo tom ntej, "nws hais ntxiv.
Khaws Koj Cov txiaj ntsig virtual kom nyab xeeb
Tsis yog txhua tus pom zoo tias quantum computers yuav tuaj yeem tshem tawm Bitcoin hmoov zoo.
"Yog tias blockchain encryption tawg, qhov tshwm sim yuav tsawg yog tias ib qho twg raws li lub zej zog yuav pom kev tawg hauv cov saw hlau." Terrill Frantz, tus thawj coj Quantum Computing cov kev pab cuam ntawm Harrisburg University of Science thiab Technology hauv PA, hais rau Lifewire hauv kev sib tham hauv email. "Vim li cas peb paub niaj hnub no ntawm lub peev xwm ntawm quantum computer thiab cov tswv yim siv hauv blockchain, tsis muaj qhov chaw paub tias yuav xeeb tub ntawm qhov teeb meem ntawm no."
Mason Jappa, tus kws tshaj lij crypto mining, tau hais hauv kev xam phaj email tias Bitcoin yog "antifragile" thev naus laus zis.
"Lub ntsiab lus, nws dhau los ua kom muaj zog thiab vam meej los ntawm kev ntxhov siab, kev poob siab, thiab tsis muaj zog," nws hais ntxiv. "Yog hais tias qhov kev hem thawj ntawm quantum suav ua ntau dua tam sim thiab muaj tiag, cryptographic algorithms hauv Bitcoin tuaj yeem hloov mus rau quantum-resistant sawv daws yuav. Cov kauj ruam no yuav pib los ntawm ob tus Bitcoin Core developers thiab Bitcoin cov neeg siv, thiab twb tau muaj kev sib tham nyob ib ncig ntawm lub ntsiab lus no tau ntau xyoo. Nws tsis yog ib qho kev hem thawj tam sim ntawd."
Kev siv zog los txhim kho tom qab quantum cryptography thev naus laus zis tab tom tab tom ua, suav nrog kev pib coj los ntawm Ethereum Foundation, sau tseg Max Galka, CEO ntawm Blockchain tuam txhab Elementus, hauv kev sib tham email nrog Lifewire. Honeywell tseem tab tom ua haujlwm los ua kom blockchain tiv thaiv quantum xam, siv lub cev kho vajtse uas supercomputers tsis tuaj yeem nkag mus tau deb.
"Luckily, peb tseem nyob ob peb xyoos los ntawm quantum computers muaj peev xwm ua txhaum blockchain encryption, uas muab cov neeg tsim khoom thiab cov kws tsim khoom siv sijhawm ntau los tsim cov kev daws teeb meem," Galka hais.
Ntawm qhov tod tes, thaum muaj kev siv zog los tsim quantum-kev nyab xeeb cryptocurrency hnab nyiaj, tsis muaj dab tsi tuaj yeem ua rov qab los tiv thaiv cov neeg tsis muaj zog, qee qhov tau ploj los ntawm thawj cov miners, Mandich taw qhia.
"Lub ntsiag to PR tso tawm ntawm hackers lossis lub teb chaws-xeev nkag mus rau lub computer loj quantum yuav yog kev hloov pauv ntawm billions hauv Bitcoin ua raws li kev tawg ntawm cryptocurrency ecosystem," nws hais ntxiv.
