Duke Investigator Uncovers Bitcoin’s Most Affordable Risk Vector - And It’s Not Quantum

Forget quantum computers - the real threat to Bitcoin costs far less than you'd imagine.

The Cheap Kill Shot

A Duke University researcher just identified the most cost-effective attack vector that could potentially undermine Bitcoin's security framework. While everyone's been worrying about quantum computing breaking cryptographic security, this vulnerability operates on a completely different level - and comes with a surprisingly modest price tag.

Traditional security concerns focus on multi-billion dollar quantum development programs, but this research reveals a pathway that bypasses those astronomical costs entirely. The investigation pinpoints specific weaknesses in Bitcoin's operational infrastructure that require significantly less investment to exploit than previously assumed threats.

Market analysts are scrambling to assess the implications, while Bitcoin maximalists dismiss the findings as academic speculation - because nothing says 'sound money' like ignoring potential vulnerabilities until they become expensive problems, right?
