Justin Sun Warns of Quantum Threat, Market Underestimates Q-Day's Impact on Bitcoin
In an interview, Justin Sun discussed the threat of quantum computing to the cryptocurrency industry, emphasizing the critical role of mathematics in the sector and the current focus on quantum attacks. TRON is advancing NIST's post-quantum encryption standards aimed at enhancing blockchain's resistance to quantum attacks, with technology already launched on the testnet and expected to go live on the mainnet early next year. Sun stressed that many people underestimate the destructive power of Quantum Threat Day (Q-Day), pointing out that the Bitcoin network reaches consensus at a very slow pace. He noted that since entering the Bitcoin community in 2012, technological progress has been slow, and even if the entire network knows a disaster will occur in two years, reaching consensus in a short time is nearly impossible. Fund managers at large financial institutions have failed to adequately study this issue, believing that technological evolution is similar to mobile system updates, but the evolution of underlying public chain technology is not the same. Sun warned that Q-Day will pose significant trouble, and the market severely underestimates the potential devastating impact of Q-Day on Bitcoin's price.
