if quantum computers can break RSA or ECC encryption, the implications go FAR beyond Bitcoin:

- The internet itself (TLS/SSL)
- Banking and Finance (PKI)
- Secure communications (like email, messaging apps)
- Software updates (cryptographic signatures to verify authenticity)
- National Security (state secrets, military systems, etc)
