That's the kind of quantum computer i had in mind.

The regular currencies can adapt, by using symmetric cryptography at the expense of usability for example

They can't. Or rather, the secure Internet infrastructure is based on asymmetric cryptography (HTTPS). Quantum computer would break this infrastructure until most Internet users would have quantum computers which would use asymmetric cryptography algorithms adapted to the new technology.
