So regular cryptography is threatened by quantum computing, for sure. I imagine you’d wind up with some kind of quantum coprocessor like we used to have for math back in the day because quantum computing isn’t a replacement for current computers.

It would be interesting to see if having that capability locally would lead to finding other uses for it the way we did for GPUs and AI.

That said, I expect a long timeline for this to happen. We’ll see.
