IF time is quantized, the formalism that quantum-computing threat models rely on collapses. Schrödinger evolution, coherence, and superposition all assume AND require continuous time to work. Does Bitcoin by computing discrete, irreversible time through proof-of-work (blocks of time) suffice as enough evidence to falsify the axiom? Any change to the network is harm if there is no threat. If there is no threat then the entire narrative is a psychological and linguistic attack disguised as “complex physics”. Bitcoin is not broken, nor does it need to be fixed. Their models are destroyed, not Bitcoin.

Quantum effects are pretty firmly established, in things like 2-slit experiment, or the colors of quantum dots.... We don't have to know exactly "how" it works to know that it works. Bitcoin doesn't "falsify" quantum more than anything other demonstration of the linear progression of time...
