Well quantum computing's only economically valuable use-case is cracking RSA and other weak quantum-vulnerable cryptography.

But there is a $100B+ (and growing) bounty to crack satoshi's Bitcoin wallets. The higher the bounty grows, the more urgent it is to break Bitcoin to claim Satoshi's wallet.

(Unless Bitcoin forks into a quantum-resistant hashing method).
