Right, one thing we agreed on in our discussion is that there won’t be (and likely shouldn’t be) consensus in the bitcoin community to freeze coins unless it’s *very* clear that a CRQC is coming in the imminent future. I highly doubt anyone supports any kind of “preemptive” freezing. This is only an interesting discussion if at some point we’re starting at a 95+% chance of a CRQC in 3-5 years. I’m quite confident that if a CRQC becomes a thing, we’ll get that kind of notice, Odell disagrees but not much of something that can be carefully debated.
