Is it really quantum resistant ?

When IOTA community says that this technology is "quantum resistant". I think it's true only for the tangle itself.

But one day, if an hacker find an address with a huge amount of money and has a "super comuter", he could could generate a seed macthing with this address easily no ?



It is indeed quantum resistant, Iota uses Winternitz signing which is quantum-immune. For more info check part 4.3 of http://188.138.57.93/tangle.pdf.

With IOTA's technology generating seed from an address wouldn't be too easy even if it is a super computer.
