As quantum computing becomes increasingly integrated into our lives, it is being described as posing a significant threat to Bitcoin (BTC). It is argued that quantum computing could one day undermine the cryptographic foundations that secure trillions of dollars worth of crypto assets.

While some analysts argue that the quantum threat is imminent and should be taken into account, others argue that it is exaggerated and that it will be a long time before the threat emerges.

As discussions about quantum physics continue, a new report has emerged from asset management company Grayscale.

Grayscale stated in its 2026 Digital Asset Market Outlook report that fears surrounding quantum computing are not expected to impact the market in the short term, i.e., next year.

According to the report, quantum computing could pose a long-term threat to Bitcoin and other blockchain cryptographic systems, but it is unlikely to directly impact price volatility next year.

However, Grayscale acknowledges that quantum computing could threaten the cryptographic systems of cryptocurrency networks. They just don't think it's likely to have a significant impact on market prices or investor sentiment by 2026.

Finally, Grayscale added that a quantum computer that could threaten Bitcoin's encryption is not expected to emerge before 2030 at the earliest.
