2 different phenomena with a messianic scope but little delayed according to the menu: One having fed 5,000 people with 5 loaves & 2 fish. On the other hand, the contemporary has chosen to free over the world by offering a kit of 21M of tokens. Not similar, but transfigured the game! image

Security mechanism, block inclusion, all relie on the probabilistic nature of transaction propagation in the decentralized network… According to Satoshi in the case of 'fast transactions problem', if legitimate transaction reaches 80% of nodes & double-spend attempting to catch up reaches only 20% of nodes, let’s outcome that legitimate transaction has a significantly higher probability of being included in the next block due to its faster & wider propagation… Explore the full RBF & avoid 0-conf!

Hash function vulnerability! So, security of hash functions used in blockchain tech can be compromised by QC… fact! Anyway, Grover's algorithm could be employed to perform a 'brute-force search' on hash functions with 'quadratic speedup', potentially reducing the time required to find a 'collision' while Schor’s algo go for large numbers factorization & effectively could break Cryptographic primitives…
