To which the honey badger says, "Bring it on". Bitcoin is a public network that has been attacked relentlessly by the best hackers in the world for the past 10 years. It is currently protecting/storing around $115 billion dollars in wealth, which can be seen as a bounty to anyone who succeeds in bringing it down. So far it hasn't happened, and even in the face of hypothetical challenges there's no reason why the protocol cannot patch a fix and move on.
