Quantum is not really a threat to Bitcoin...
Even if the blockchain get compromised the dev will upgrade to a quantum resistant algo and fork back the blockchain, just like it was done with Ethereum in 2016. But we're still 10 years away of such an event being remotely possible.
Nobody will lose anything.

quantum computing is not a threat to bitcoin. It will still take multiple lifetimes to crack the code, not to mention you'd just bump up to SHA528

memes aside, i don't understand what goes on in the mind of smoothbrains. they freak out about crypto whenever quantum computing is mentioned, despite quantum computing being a solved problem in crypto (fork, move to quantum resistant algorithm). and they don't worry about all the companies, hospitals, airports, local power infrastructure, water supply running on legacy systems with no clear upgrade path to anything quantum resistant

Do the private keys change at that point but remain based on same seed phrases? I haven't looked into this and am hoping it's as easy as bumping the algorithm and making the 100% cracked BTC 2020 useless.

guess the idea is that many of those systems can run without direct connection to the internet
my hospital files don't need to be on servers connected to anything other than the hospital Ethernet

also, most of these things can still be run without encryption, airports won't shut down just because people can crack encryption
bitcoin however cannot survive without safe encryption

You don't understand.

Quantum computers outpace conventional computers on an exponential scale. Add as many classical bits as you want. Quantum computers will always outpace it at a scale of 2^2n.

quantum resistance doesn't exist
the only way to avoid being decrypted is using pre-shared secret keys which is only possible for private channels with few involved parties
the moment the key becomes public your encryption will be broken

cryptocurrencies are sadly impossible with quantum computers
luckily we will reach $400k long before anyone breaks btc
