Satoshi's coins vulnerable to quantum attack?

Is this true or is this guy way off?

If this is true, something will definitely need to be done with those coins else we will have a serious problem on our hands in the not so distant future.

I don't think QC as typically presented is a real thing, personally (just yet another semantic confusion in science), but if you believe in it yes Satoshi better move his coins - most of them preferably to the BitcoinEater address. If Satoshi is Kleiman and his keys are lost forever, that would be bad...though if there's anything to QC this functions as a gigantic bounty on such tech. Whoever develops it first gets the prize.

I think it will still take quite a while to materialize... so I agree it is an interesting 'prize'.

"Quantum cryptography is considered a fully secure encryption method, but researchers from Linköping University and Stockholm University have discovered that this is not always the case. They found that energy-time entanglement - the method that today forms the basis for many systems of quantum cryptography - is vulnerable to attack."
