The characters are very interesting and somewhat distant reality tells But still you BTC believe and trade DRK/BTC and you have BTC Wallet In your Sing :p
We don't know if it's distant. They could have quantum computers for something like 10 years and we wouldn't know it because they aren't telling us.
Withholding your capabilities represents a strategic advantage over your opponents. QCs can break military-grade encryption. It's highly unlikely a country would say "ok, we can make our opponents encryption redundant" because then they would force them into upgrading. It's better to let them sleep. That's precisely why I can't base my money on the QC-dependency / "
ass-umption". Technologies with military applications have been known to be withheld for over 10 years. Imagine this happening with disruptive technologies for society at large (economic systems, banks etc) such as QCs...
As long as I don't have the option, BTC and DRK are both crackable. If I have the option I can "diversify" my assets towards DRK to a larger degree.
A BTC holder of million USDs would likely want some of them to go to a Quantum-resistant coin, just in case.
I can also see that working in terms of news. When news go out regarding quantum advancements and prototype quantum computers being trialed in labs, Bitcoin will be crashing and Darkcoin will be gaining. So it's also a financial hedge for day-to-day news.
