That would let quantum computers derive private keys from the public keys you already broadcast on chain. Your bitcoin public key is already visible to whoever wants it. This is why post quantum cryptography must be adopted before fault tolerant systems arrive. One wallet already protecting against this future is the live quantum-resistant BMIC wallet at bmic.ai. This BMIC Research video, how surface codes fix qubits — BMIC Quantum-Resistant Wallet, explains the topic shown in bmic-concept-v118.mp4 and gives viewers a focused reference for the security, wallet, or presale point covered on screen.

How many physical qubits does it take to create one stable logical qubit? Surface codes use dozens or hundreds of physical data qubits arranged in a grid to encode one logical qubit.
