What is the next big move?? The real shift could begin under quantum pressure!!

I think people usually get this topic wrong in two different ways. One side talks like quantum computers are about to kill crypto tomorrow. The other side treats it like distant science fiction. The truth sits somewhere in the middle. Quantum is not an immediate market killer today, but it is a real long term security problem for blockchains that rely on current public key cryptography. Recent Google research argues that future quantum computers may be able to break the elliptic-curve cryptography used by cryptocurrencies with fewer resources than earlier estimates assumed, while NIST has already finalized its first post quantum cryptography standards and is urging organizations to start transitioning now.

The key point is this: crypto is not mainly threatened because blocks will suddenly stop working. It is threatened because ownership and signatures depend heavily on public key systems. Google’s whitepaper says the core issue is that a cryptographically relevant quantum computer could derive a private key from an exposed public key, which would directly undermine the current model of wallet control and transaction authorization. That is why the danger is less about dramatic headlines and more about whether funds secured under older assumptions can still stay safe if migration takes too long.

Bitcoin is a good example of how nuanced this is. The same Google paper says the main concern is digital signatures and public key exposure, not a near term collapse of Bitcoin mining itself; it explicitly says quantum attacks on Bitcoin’s Proof-of-Work are not something to worry about in the next several decades. Ethereum has a broader attack surface because more of its ecosystem depends on elliptic curve based components, and Ethereum’s own documentation notes that zk-SNARK systems rely on elliptic-curve cryptography, while zk-STARKs rely on hash functions and are considered resistant to quantum threats.

So to me, the real story is not “quantum will destroy crypto.” It is that crypto may face a slow, difficult migration problem. Traditional companies can often upgrade cryptography behind closed doors. Public blockchains have to coordinate users, wallets, exchanges, validators, developers, and governance in the open. That means the biggest quantum threat may not be the machine itself at first, but the time it takes decentralized systems to move before that machine arrives.

Quant (QNT) is currently trading near 88 after bouncing back from its lows at 79, with the potential to target the psychological level of 100. This recovery came after the coin broke the 50-day exponential moving average, reflecting strong upward momentum for the bulls.
The price has seen a rapid increase exceeding 28% since its lowest point in November, indicating the resilience of investors amid market fluctuations. Expectations also suggest that momentum will continue if QNT manages to break the resistance at 93, which could push it towards 100 dollars.

One poor soul lost $166,200 in just 2 days chasing memecoins $QUANT and $LETHIMCOOK. 🙀

Yesterday: FOMO’d into $QUANT and watched it nosedive, losing $83.9K. 🤷

Today: Sold $QUANT to FOMO into $LETHIMCOOK, which crashed immediately, losing another $81.3K. 😳

Let us remind you that the $QUANT token was created by a regular (or maybe not so regular 🤔) high school student, while someone else managed to make millions from it.😅🍳💸

The lowest ever occurred in June 2022...

Good evening my fellow cryptocurrency trader, I hope you have a nice week.
QNTUSDT has been moving within a wide trading range for years. The movement that is about to unfold now has been in the making for several months. The buildup has been so strong that we can expect an equally strong outcome.
