Re:Crypto in 2026: Oh, This Is the Bad Place by ifwinterco on Tuesday June 23, 2026 @11:04AM (#48646160)
Post quantum cryptography is not fundamentally that hard, the only issues are the signatures are bigger (so the chain is less efficient), and migration of existing chains (biggest problem).

Quantum computers might harm BTC or some other chains if the devs can’t get their house in order soon enough, but there’s no reason to think it fundamentally alters whether cryptocurrency is mathematically viable
