Bitcoin, Ehtereum ve diğer kripto para birimleri blok zinciri teknolojisi üzerinde geliştirilmektedir. Bu teknoloji üzerinde veriler şifrelenerek parçalara bölünür ve bu şifreleme finansal işlemlerde kullanılır. Şifreleme algoritmalarının daha hızlı çalışması için kuantum hesaplama bir alternatif olarak sunulmaktadır. Bununla birlikte, kuantum hesaplamanın varlığı söz konusu olduğunda kuantum bilgisayarlara ve kuantum programlamaya daha fazla ilgi duyulmaktadır. Kuantum bilgisayarlar, günümüz klasik bilgisayarlara kıyasla algoritmaları daha güçlü ve hızlı bir şekilde çözümlemektedir. Sorun şu ki, kuantum hesaplama gelecekte kripto para piyasasında kullanılırsa, blok zinciri üzerinde tüm işlemler hem hızlı bir şekilde sürdürülebilecek hem de güvenlik tehditlerine ve sahteciliklere karşı savunmasız kalacaktır.
Bu çalışmada, öncelikle blok zincir ve kuantum hesaplama hakkında bilgi verilmiştir. Kuantum bilgisayarların kripto para ve blok zinciri teknolojilerinin üzerindeki gelecek etkisi tartışılmış ve kuantum blok zinciri kavramından bahsedilmiştir. Aynı zamanda, kuantum hesaplamanın blok zincir üzerindeki olası olumlu – olumsuz etkilerinden söz edilmiştir. Son olarak yazılım endüstrisinin kriptografi alanı için tehdit olarak gördüğü kuantum hesaplama hakkındaki girişimlerinden bahsedilmiştir. Söz konusu çalışmanın Türkçe literatüre katkı sağlayacağı düşünülmektedir.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Common Future of Blockchain and Quantum Computing in Information Technologies: Quantum Blockchain

Öz

Bitcoin, Ethereum and other cryptocurrencies are developed on blockchain technology. On this technology, data is encrypted and divided into parts, and this encryption is used in financial transactions. Quantum computing is offered as an alternative for encryption algorithms to work faster. However, there is more interest in quantum computers and quantum programming when it comes to the existence of quantum computing. Quantum computers analyze algorithms more powerfully and faster than today's classical computers. The problem is that if quantum computing is used in the cryptocurrency market in the future, all transactions on the blockchain will both be able to resume quickly and be vulnerable to security threats and fraud.

In this study, first of all, information about blockchain and quantum computing is given. The future impact of quantum computers on crypto money and blockchain technologies is discussed and the concept of quantum blockchain is mentioned. At the same time, the possible positive and negative effects of quantum computing on the blockchain were mentioned. Finally, the software industry's attempts on quantum computing, which is seen as a threat to the field of cryptography, are mentioned. It is thought that this study will contribute to the Turkish literature.
