Crypto analyst Camol claims that <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/quantum-threat-could-split-bitcoin-analyst-warns-politics-not-tech-is-the-real-danger\/amp\/\">advanced quantum computing<\/a> could eventually crack Nakatomo\u2019s wallet, draining it entirely. The analyst\u2019s argument has sparked heated debate across the crypto community, with many critics dismissing the claims as unfounded and misleading.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Will Quantum Computing Crack Nakamoto\u2019s Bitcoin?<\/h2>\n<p>In an X post <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/camolnft\/status\/1995267465484370366?s=46\" rel=\"nofollow\">released<\/a> on Monday, December 1, Camol predicted that Nakamoto\u2019s BTC wallet will be drained within the next 10 years as quantum computing power advances exponentially. He called this rapid, annual double acceleration Neven\u2019s Law, warning that the Bitcoin creator\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-boom-pushes-satoshi-nakamoto-into-top-11-wealthiest-at-130-billion\/amp\/\">over $131 billion <\/a>BTC stash could eventually be exposed to unprecedented risks and hacks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Camol\u2019s argument focuses on Bitcoin\u2019s secp256k1 elliptic curve and ECDSA signatures, which are used to secure wallets. He claims that these could eventually be reversed using <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-quantum-threat-before-next-us-election\/amp\/\">Shor\u2019s Algorithm<\/a>, a quantum algorithm that, in theory, can break elliptic curve cryptography once sufficiently powerful quantum hardware exists. The analyst warns that if such a technology becomes viable, it could compromise the security of even the most well-protected Bitcoin holdings\u2014in this case, Nakamoto\u2019s.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In his post, Camol also stated that Satoshi\u2019s 1 million BTC fortune could face additional vulnerability because the wallet address is protected by a 160-bit hash that has never been exposed through spending activity. He claims that a powerful quantum attack could crack the hash and reveal the public key, eventually uncovering the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/ethereum\/stakehound-loses-private-keys\/amp\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">private key<\/a> through multiple attempts. The analyst also pointed out that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/upbit-30-million-hack-update-authorities-link-breach-to-north-korean-hackers\/amp\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">sophisticated bad actors<\/a>, such as state-sponsored groups and wealthy cybercriminals, could access Nakamoto\u2019s BTC wallet.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Experts And AI Dismiss BTC Quantum Hacking Claims<\/h2>\n<p>Crypto analyst @level941 on X sharply <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/level941\/status\/1995309166513016919?s=46\" rel=\"nofollow\">rebuked<\/a> Camol\u2019s claims, emphasizing that Satoshi\u2019s BTC holdings are fundamentally more secure than most coins in circulation. He surmised that because Satoshi\u2019s BTC is stored in early <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-quantum-survival-plan-what-you-can-do\/amp\/\">P2PKH addresses,<\/a> the public keys will remain hidden and the wallet will stay locked unless the Bitcoin creator manually removes his coins.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>@level941 called Camol\u2019s statements \u201cfalse\u201d and \u201cincorrect,\u201d noting that Quantum computers can only break <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/charles-edwards-bitcoin-quantum-break-2-8-years\/amp\/\">RSA or ECC systems<\/a> when the public key is known. This means that Satoshi\u2019s BTC is protected by a 160-bit RIPED160 hash that quantum machines cannot brute force in any foreseeable timeline.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The analyst also argued that if the Bitcoin network ever migrated to a <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/nsa-backdoor-bitcoin-warns-peter-todd\/amp\/\">quantum-safe signature scheme<\/a>, Satoshi\u2019s unmoved coins would become permanently locked rather than hacked or drained. Independent analysis from advanced AI systems further rejects Camol\u2019s quantum-hacking narrative as scientifically unsupported.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>According to reports, present-day quantum computers have fewer than 1,000 noisy qubits, far short of the millions of error-corrected qubits required to break <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-cryptographic-achievement\/amp\/\">Bitcoin\u2019s cryptography<\/a>. AI systems also highlight that there is no evidence suggesting that a Bitcoin-breaking quantum machine will appear within ten years. It also revealed that Neven\u2019s Law, which Camol referenced, is no longer considered a reliable predictor of long-term growth in quantum computing. In conclusion, the odds of Nakamoto\u2019s BTC fortune being hacked are extremely low for at least the next few decades.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/N65nJ8ES\/\" alt=\"Bitcoin price chart from Tradingview.com\" width=\"3286\" height=\"1794\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Concerns have emerged over whether Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto\u2019s 1 million BTC fortune could be hacked.
