Google’s Willow Quantum Chip: A Step Forward in Computing, But Bitcoin Remains Secure

  • Google has unveiled its latest quantum computing chip named Willow, capable of performing certain calculations in just 5 minutes that would take traditional computers about 10 septillion years to complete.
  • Willow uses 105 qubits and shows reduced error rates as qubit count increases – a major breakthrough in quantum computing.
  • The current encryption used by Bitcoin would require millions of qubits to break, making Willow's 105 qubits no immediate threat to Bitcoin's security.
  • Experts estimate meaningful quantum threats to crypto security may emerge between 2030-2050, prompting industry leaders to work on quantum-resistant solutions.
