Would it really be possible? I imagine it's still going to be far from over. A lot of things can be taken care of when it comes to quantum computing but it's in the progress still. What I'm concerned is how fast itr will be with the tools that we have now like AI.

Are there any technical details with how El Salvador is setting up their wallets? Maybe a lot of countries could follow suit.

With the little I have read about quantum computers and how it might pose a risk to Bitcoin, I am made to understand that only public keys that have been exposed are at risk of getting attacked with the help of the quantum computer.

Maybe El Salvador is only trying to stay safe. They must have understood this, hence the need to transfer their bitcoins to wallet addresses that have never been used before.

I like the fact that they are being security conscious, they will not be taken unawares, if anything like such should happen in the future, they won't be losing everything at once.
