>>11085543Oh wow I was way off. Surprised no one's caught me on this:
Firstly, 2^256 = 1.2*10^77
Secondly, 10,000 years of compute time in 3 seconds shaves off 12 zeros.
So if a hypothetical quantum computer was this much faster at brute forcing a 256-bit hash than a regular old supercomputer, it'd calculate
>1.2*10^77 solutions in the time the supercomputer would calculate just
>1.2*10^65solutions.
Still absurd, but it's significantly more impressive.
