    There’d just be new cryptocurrencies. There are crypto algorithms that are already quantum resistant. Monero is a great example.

    You seem to be under the impression that crypto somewhat relies on current technology to exist. It’s a set of heuristics and algorithms, not a single implementation. And those can evolve for new use cases or technologies.

    What you said is akin to “if something like this could make databases obsolete”.
