The Brilliant Satoshi Nakamoto responded to Quantum Computer FUD 11 years ago


“SHA-256 is very strong. It's not like the incremental step from MD5 to SHA1. It can last several decades unless there's some massive breakthrough attack.”“If SHA-256 became completely broken, I think we could come to some agreement about what the honest block chain was before the trouble started, lock that in and continue from there with a new hash function.”Source: https://bit.ly/2EBv9YX keep in mind that this is worst case situation, as if Quantum computers came unsuspectedly years earlier- I think lamport signature or other solutions could easily be implemented before any trouble comes. via /r/Bitcoin https://bit.ly/34Hqijs
