Overview

As quantum computing accelerates toward practical reality, Bitcoin faces a moment of reckoning. The Quantum Fork is a razor-sharp, no-fluff exploration of how quantum breakthroughs could dismantle the cryptographic assumptions that keep Bitcoin secure-and what can be done before it's too late. This isn't just another tech prophecy. It's a deeply researched, intellectually honest journey into the collision of two revolutionary technologies. Written by a physicist with zero tolerance for hype, the book walks readers through how Bitcoin really works under the hood, why its security depends on hard math, and what quantum computers like those running Shor's or Grover's algorithms could do to unravel it all. You'll learn why elliptic curve signatures (ECDSA) and hash functions like SHA-256 aren't as invincible as once thought. You'll see how Q-Day-the moment quantum attacks become viable-could trigger theft, chain fractures, and loss of trust. And you'll discover the real-world obstacles in migrating Bitcoin to quantum-resistant cryptography, from governance bottlenecks to legacy key exposure. But this book doesn't just sound the alarm. It lays out the preemptive steps users, developers, institutions, and even governments must take. It explores both risk and resilience: the physics of quantum tunneling, the politics of forks, the economics of address reuse, and the subtle art of cryptographic adaptation. If you care about Bitcoin's future-not as a speculative asset but as a system of decentralized trust-you need to understand the quantum threat before it arrives. The Quantum Fork offers the technical insight, strategic clarity, and sobering realism to help you prepare.
