Many have been concerned about Bitcoin's quantum security, but it turns out to be a very nuanced topic.
I go over the state of the art in post-quantum cryptography, cryptographically-relevant quantum computers, and its potential impact on Bitcoin.
Attendees should get a sense for how Bitcoin is vulnerable to quantum attack, and what can be done about it.

Sadly I won't be able to attend because we have a major deadline working for Ducat Protocol that I'll need to meet at this time.
Closing this unless someone else would like to pick up the talk.
