IF such thing happens, it's not just Bitcoin that will go broke but also all the FIAT banking system and possibly the whole safety on internet.
I truly can't believe such thing might happen simply because cryptography also gets upgraded from time to time.
it's not just Bitcoin that will go broke
I'm here because I don't really care about crappy FIAT banking system - it can (or: should) go broke for me while we have Bitcoin + LN
and what if Bitcoin for being upgraded to post-quantum cryptography - would require a hard fork? (quite probable, because post-quantum signature size is significantly bigger) imagine that mess... not to mention that we were told every single time: hard fork is "bad for Bitcoin"...
