Original Note:
This claim is factually false. While Google's Willow quantum chip showed impressive results on a specific quantum benchmark, it can't "mine all remaining Bitcoin." SHA-256 is theorized to be quantum-resistant, with no known quantum algorithm able to efficiently break it. https://www.forbes.com/sites/rogerhuang/2020/12/21/heres-why-quantum-computing-will-not-break-cryptocurrencies/
