Someone posted this online...figured I'd share it with the Bitcoin community here and let the cyber hornets of team Nostrich sort out the truth of this claim:

"Bitcoin is going to get pwned. SHA256 is not a safe hashing algorithm & can be exploited in several ways. I don't typically advertise it but here you go - https://github.com/sschepis/rust-miner - i'll leave this link up for a bit. This miner will shave about eight zeroes of difficulty off the mining process - so like one diff 1 hash every couple minutes

ECDSA is a bit better, but not by much. secp256k1 will break even before quantum computers become ubiquitous. I can shave 50 bits of difficulty off a secp256k1 key on my home computer

The next mining frontier is definitely going to be mining for private keys of lost assets"

Your thoughts, anon?
