Former Meta engineer: Quantum computing, mining rewards are Bitcoin's time bombs

TechLeadHD, a former Meta engineer, has identified two unresolved time bombs for Bitcoin: quantum computing and miner rewards, Wu Blockchain reported. He stated that the advancement of quantum computers could pose a new security threat to the encryption systems of Bitcoin wallets. Additionally, he noted that as Bitcoin's block rewards continuously decrease, network security could be weakened in the long term if transaction fees alone are insufficient to maintain economic incentives for miners. TechLeadHD also expressed skepticism about the prospect of Bitcoin establishing itself as a sovereign currency independent of nations, as governments are unlikely to readily accept a monetary system outside their control.
