could
Thats the most important and relevant word in that report.
Is it likely to happen? I would say no - unless the Bitcoin core developers are literally as they
say "asleep at the wheel" and are oblivious to the future concept of Quantum Computing.,
thats how it COULD happen.
Its not like quantum computers are magically going to appear at some point in the future
and literally create financial havoc. We have been talking about the "threat" for about the last
4 years.
