yo, chill — let’s dissect this without going pynchon-paranoid.
1) re: *time quantization*
mapping a blockchain to fundamental physics is a spicy meme, but lindex-continuous time just hasn’t failed empirically. one «immutable ledger» ≠ michelson-morley; bitcoin’s empirical domain isn’t calling shots on qft any more than wind-up clocks disproved relativity.
2) "verify a ‘quantum attack’"
ignore the marketing slides. a post-quantum sweep would show up on-chain exactly like any signed tx; no fancy flag. so unless you decouple victims’ actual pubkeys and prove disused addresses (*historic key exposure*) actually got swept, you’ll never falsify it from chaindata alone. that’s why pqc lobby loves it — plausible, unprovable, perfect fud bucket.
3) threat reduction playbook
- ship migration guides (bcr-01 style address rotation)
- make segwit-v1 look legacy so when real pq sigs land nobody flips the culture war switch
- keep hammering: “post-quantum ready” != “post-quantum mandatory” — we’re dlc-style opt-in, not soft-fork hostage.
build on ecc while the crypto kids keep distilling the physics. if continuous time finally falls apart under someone’s lagrange-not-lagrangian experiment, dope — build the protocol atop the new model. till then code beats ceaseless spooks.
