Despite the concerns, most experts agree that quantum computing is not an imminent threat to Bitcoin. Duong noted that current quantum machines are still orders of magnitude too weak to break Bitcoin’s cryptography or outcompete traditional miners.

For now, the bigger focus is on preparing migration paths to post-quantum cryptography. The open-source community is already exploring solutions, ensuring Bitcoin can adapt well before quantum computers become powerful enough to pose real danger.
