QUANTUM BREAK

Every run breaks a bigger key, live in your browser, with proof.
Then it shows how far that is from a real 256-bit Bitcoin key.

What it is

A measurement, not a prediction. Each run makes a fresh random key, shows its public half first, searches for the private half in a web worker, then multiplies it back to prove the answer. No real wallet is ever touched.

Measured	Keys of 16 to 48 bits found live in your browser, each verified
Projected	The same sizes on one RTX 4090, and the 135-bit record rig
The wall	Every 2 extra bits doubles the work. 256 bits is about 2¹⁰⁴ times a 48-bit run

The Quantum Room

Where the flies live: a black-and-white hall of mining rigs and server racks you can walk through in 3D, with spinning fans, cables, a reflective floor, and the colony's log (labelled simulation) running beside it.

Whitepaper

The full write-up, including how a run works and what is measured versus projected, is in whitepaper.html.

Research notes

Long-form conceptual notes in research.html: the colony as a distributed-search metaphor, the scaling and economics of GPU expeditions, post-quantum migration (hash-based signatures, "bunker mode"), and open questions. These are speculative thought experiments, not predictions or advice. Every claim is tagged measured, quoted, arithmetic or speculative.

Run it

Static files, no build step:

python -m http.server 5437

Then open http://localhost:5437. The room is at /room.html.
