Shor's algorithm in practice can just about find the prime factors of 21. I can do that in my head. Don't need a quantum computer for that.

Finding the prime factors of 21 is far from enough for cracking a Bitcoin private key. I can figure out in my head that 3*7 = 21. That's the level quantum computers are on right now. So I am not worried about quantum computers cracking Bitcoin private keys any time soon.
