<p>In this episode, hosts McIntosh and Kenshin explore whether quantum computing poses a real threat to Bitcoin. They discuss findings from the Presidio Bitcoin Quantum Summit, where experts' concern about cryptographically relevant quantum computers arriving within 5-20 years increased after the event. However, the hosts emphasize this is not an imminent threat—current quantum computers are extremely expensive, error-prone, and nowhere near capable of breaking Bitcoin's cryptography. Solutions like BIP 360 are already being proposed to implement quantum-resistant algorithms when needed.<a href="https://bitref.com/nodes/" target="_blank"><br /></a><br /><strong>Bitcoin Price at Time of Recording</strong><br /><br />Nov 5th, 2025: $104,436 USD | 90,800 euro<br /><br /><strong>Block Height at Time of Recording</strong><br /><br />922,362<br /><br /><strong>Episode Page</strong><br /><br /><a href="https://satoshis-plebs.com/episode-232" target="_blank">https://satoshis-plebs.com/episode-232</a><br /><br /><strong>Music Credits</strong><br /><br /><a href="https://wavlake.com/joemartin" target="_blank">Joe Martin</a><br />The Jetsons<br /><br /><br /></p> <p><strong>Website<br /></strong><br /><a href="https://satoshis-plebs.com" target="_blank">https://satoshis-plebs.com</a><a href="https://satoshis-plebs.com/" target="_blank"><br /></a><br />Podcasting 2.0 Apps available at <a href="http://podcastapps.com" target="_blank">http://podcastapps.com</a> and Value4Value information page available here: <a href="https://value4value.info" target="_blank">https://value4value.info</a><a href="https://value4value.info/" target="_blank"><br /></a><br />McIntosh can be reached by email at [email protected] and on Twitter at <a href="https://x.com/McIntoshFinTech" target="_blank">@McIntoshFinTech</a>.
