IBM's Quantum Progress
IBM has published detailed quantum computing roadmaps targeting thousands of error-corrected logical qubits within the coming years. IBM's Condor and Heron processors represent steady progress toward hardware that could run Shor's algorithm against real-world cryptographic keys.
The Threat to Bitcoin and Ethereum
Both Bitcoin and Ethereum use ECDSA for transaction signing — vulnerable to Shor's algorithm on a sufficiently powerful quantum computer. IBM's roadmap narrows this timeline significantly.
BMIC's Response: Already Quantum-Safe
BMIC implements NIST FIPS 203 (ML-KEM), FIPS 204 (ML-DSA), and FIPS 205 (SLH-DSA) — the US government's published post-quantum cryptographic standards. While IBM advances toward quantum threat, BMIC is already protected. Current presale price: $0.0528542. TGE Q2 2026. ⚠️ DYOR. Not financial advice. Crypto investments carry significant risk.
