Is Bitcoin quantum proof? With the anticipated (or more often imagined) rise of quantum computing, this is an often asked question. First of all, due to the yet-to-be-solved (perhaps even unsolvable) unscalable error correction problem and the peculiar algorithm of quantum computing, it is still unclear whether quantum computing will ever achieve scalable general computation....
