if efficient quantum computation is feasible you won’t need money
Discussion
If Bitcoiners are afraid of quantum; they are seceding the ground that Bitcoin is second best to quantum.
Bitcoin already computes the most important thing.
Why🤔
Free energy go brrrr
The benefits of quantum computing presuppose enhanced economic activity, not the abolition of monetary systems.
Money serves as a mechanism to allocate scarce resources, and quantum computing’s optimization capabilities would likely refine—not replace—this process.
For a post-monetary society to emerge, it would require not just computational advances but also radical shifts in resource abundance, governance, and human behavior—factors beyond quantum computing’s current scope.

the point is that the kind of miracle that requires efficient quantum computation also implies stupidly abundant productivity of any other thing
