I think Satoshi knew about Quantum computing but he thought they're not coming any time soon yet still they're not in existence. And someday even if the quantum computers are active the bitcoin developers can actually implement another form of security to bypass them. People also get better with time just like computers do.

If he knew about Quantum computing, then he also knew that some day the early mined coins will be moved. And he didn't move these coins.


That means

2. Satoshi created the greatest prize competition and the privatekeys are somehow within the blockchain. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5150688.0

and privatekeys are somehow within the blockchain = quantum computer?
