I find this technology interesting. However, from what i have read so far, the documentation always stated that the algorithms used in the IOTA network will be quantum resistant not immune. Care to elaborate? Are you suggesting that the network security is going to be 100% clear from any attack vectors that quantum computing could come up with? I am no expert on this, just trying to stay informed as much as possible. THanks.

I use "resistant" and "immune" interchangeably.

The are not the same thing

Let me put it this way - If i say that maybe in the future, the IOTA network could be under threat from quantum computing attacks. That risk exists and IOTA is merely quantum resistant not 100% guaranteed to be able to fend off such attacks. Would this be a fair statement?
