IEEE article makes the case for cryptocurrencies to be based on quantum computing (Quantum Random Number Generator) rather than being “quantum computing resistant” or designed in the blind of quantum computing: “Shor’s algorithm could be deployed to render Bitcoin insecure with just a few thousand error-corrected logical qubits. ” https://spectrum.ieee.org/tech-talk/computing/hardware/quantum-computer-error-correction-is-getting-practical

The Department of Commerce funding NIST QRNB Quantum Random Number Beacon in Boulder Colorado’s stated purpose is to provide a non-repudiation service of events (transactions) at any place, time in the future. This is an absolute must have for any digital currency in my opinion. The late Bernard Lietaer of Belgium’s TRC Trade Reference Currency featuring tangible commodities (like Thomas Edison’s crop commodity based monetary option of 1921) should be the models that benefit from quantum computing and the QRNB. https://www.nist.gov/news-events/news/2018/04/nists-new-quantum-method-generates-really-random-numbers
