What do we think of the futue of Bitcoin versuses quantum computing? Will Bitcoin become redundant? All thoughts welcomed.

There is a similar thread about Quantum Computer vs Bitcoin.

bitcoin now the price is too expensive for people who do not have too much money, but we can buy some of the money we have, and I believe that in the next year bitcoin will be overwhelming about the price, and this will provide big benefits for future investors

Keep in mind that many security related algorithms are broken by quantum computing (when it arrives). This is not unique to Bitcoin. Common algorithms today depend on the discrete logarithm problem or the elliptic-curve discrete logarithm problem. One example is HTTPS, which will no longer be secure.

All of these technologies, including Bitcoin, will need to find quantum resistant algorithms in order to continue providing security.

No it wont. Bitcoiin hash methods are complex enough to be calculated by quantum computers.
