Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that Shor's algorithm running on a large quantum computer can break the elliptic curve cryptography that secures Bitcoin?

Yes. A peer-reviewed paper states that in a future quantum world with a large quantum computer, Shor's algorithm will break the digital signatures securing Bitcoin transactions. Other sources partially support that Shor threatens elliptic-curve signatures, while one study emphasizes the continued classical security of secp256k1.
