Also worth noting that the user murchandamus on GitHub banned an user for 7 days for criticizing Jameson Lopp's BIP proposal. Well, the user murchandamus is working for bitgo.com and Jameson Lopp who also worked for bitgo.com are best buddies.

Good information. While people sometimes tend to jump to calling out logical fallacies when they are not, information like this can be very helpful. The proposal is very radical and if it is fueled by conflicted interests it can be quickly dismissed.

There is a strong conflict of interest regarding the BIP and I have that feeling that is going to be forced on us, like it or not. If you dare to criticize it in any way you will be banned like that user on GitHub.

I've said it before, how a rejection of quantum proposals is handled is going to determine the future of Bitcoin more than any hacks relating to old coins could ever do. However, as of now I do not know what is going to happen. I have tried to contact gmaxwell to give input on this topic, but sadly he has not said anything about it. Lips sealed

In a way satoshi's stash and other old "lost coins" will serve as a canary given that they will likely be the first target.

I'm pretty sure that if there's any malicious actor with quantum power,
that canary will be in tradfi as there are much weaker links there.

Where this amount of value is involved there is no place for gut feelings. You feeling pretty sure is pretty useless and it won't save the network from damage if you end up being wrong.
