Apologies to be savage; didn't mean to insult though. If you know, then you know, and I'm sorry if I mis-assessed that.
Every algorithm that depends on the discrete logarithm problem or on integer factorization is vulnerable to Shor's. So basically everything that was state-of-the-art until 2016 or so, with a few exceptions, but not many. Bottom line, everything a decade old and not updated, is potentially vulnerable. The reason why it makes no sense to list "individual assets" is because the only things that have real issues are decentralized things or those that cannot be easily upgraded.
So a parking meter working on CE5, or a vending machine with WinXP, will feel more friction in the upgrade path than, say, your browser, your bank, and so on.
You don't have assets in traditional banks. You are an unsecured creditor to a bank, not an asset holder. What assets the bank has of yours are simply a liability to the bank. Keep in mind that there are 9 other people in your bank that share a claim on the same fake dollar.
My main question here is about how quantim will affect other assets and traditional banking, not sure why it has triggered you so much.
According to you, banks will be fine, and it's all fud.
I'm not interested in how quantum affects bitcoin, and I'm not particularly nervous about it either.
You seem to be more interested in constantly making this about bitcoin and insulting me instead and being rude.
