once quantum based or other high end computing is introduced they will be able to crack the private keys and take all funds.

the real question to ask you is, why did you post this in an altcoin speculation board Cheesy

and to answer your question no it is not something we need to worry about for ages. because first of all a quantum computer is not something YOU can buy from a computer store or off ebay and do malicious stuff with and cracking the private keys is not as easy as you think it is and a quantum computer is not as efficient as you think it is.
