Google Quantum Research Shows Bitcoin Vulnerable to Fewer Qubits with Taproot Risk

Google’s Quantum AI team published research on March 30, 2026 indicating that breaking Bitcoin and Ethereum’s elliptic curve cryptography may require fewer than 500,000 physical qubits and approximately 1,200 to 1,450 high-quality logical qubits, significantly lower than previous estimates in the millions.

Sell-off warning lights up red! 47% of circulating Bitcoin is “trapped,” and long-term holders are also cutting losses and exiting

The cryptocurrency market is facing a cold wind, with nearly half of Bitcoin already falling below cost, and long-term investors have also begun selling at a loss. The Bitcoin Impact Index has risen to 57.4, indicating that market pressure is intensifying; in similar historical cases, it has often preceded a large-scale sell-off that is about to come. Short-term holders are down 47%, liquidity momentum is weakening, and stablecoin outflows have turned into net inflows, reversing course.

Google quantum computer reportedly breaks Bitcoin in 9 minutes—how are those numbers calculated, and where is the real threat?

Recently, rumors circulating online claim that “Google research shows quantum computers can crack Bitcoin private keys within 9 minutes,” but this is actually misinformation; there is no source for the data. In fact, cracking Bitcoin’s ECDSA requires 1.9 billion qubits, far more than Google Willow’s 105. The real threat is that an attacker can first collect data and then use a quantum computer to decrypt it; experts’ predictions for when quantum computers can crack encryption are in the 2035–2040 timeframe. The cryptography industry has already begun preparing defensive measures.
