PANews reported on February 9 that according to Cointelegraph, Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino predicted that quantum computing will eventually crack inactive Bitcoin wallets and put the Bitcoin in these wallets back into circulation. But he said that this is still a long way to go. "Any Bitcoin in a lost wallet, including Satoshi's (if he is not alive) Bitcoin, will be hacked and put back into circulation." "Quantum computing is still far from any meaningful risk of cracking Bitcoin encryption."
