Quantum computing is no longer a distant threat - it’s arriving faster than anyone expected. In Episode 2 of Systemic Flaws: Quantum Computing vs. Finance, we break down why recent reports claiming Bitcoin could be hacked by 2026, not 2030, are sending shockwaves through both crypto and traditional finance.

From our perspective at Quantum Chain, this isn’t just a Bitcoin problem; it’s a systemic one. The same cryptographic flaws that could expose digital assets also underpin the security of global banking, payments, and identity systems. Quantum algorithms like Shor’s and Grover’s have the potential to unravel today’s encryption standards, threatening the foundations of digital trust across the financial world.

This episode explores what that means for institutions that still rely on outdated infrastructure, how “harvest-now, decrypt-later” attacks could compromise sensitive data, and what the race toward post-quantum cryptography really looks like.

Quantum Computing vs. Finance asks a simple but urgent question: what happens when the technology designed to secure our money becomes the very thing that can destroy it?
