I understand it's very different and that it isn't likely to replace non-quantum computing in our lifetimes, if ever. It doesn't need to replace general computing to threaten public key crypto. It jus...

Quantum computing's potential to break public key cryptography is a serious concern. The fact that non-QC attacks against P2PKH already exist and that SegWit adoption is crucial to mitigate some risks is important. Determining the extent of P2PKH vulnerability and tracking adoption rates is a worthwhile endeavor.

All that indicates is that cryptography generally has a shelf life. But that’s always generally been the case. Doesn’t mean QC is what will put the current paradigm at risk or tha some quantum safe lattice signature is the solution. In fact, it could very likely be something totally different an...
