There are challenges in upgrading blockchains to be post-quantum safe, however, some of them seem easy. Most keys these days are generated from BIP39 mnemonics. Bip39 is pq-safe. We freeze all balances. To unfreeze, we ask users to generate a STARK proof which shows seedphrase is related to their address. After that funds are moved to a new system. Done.

wow, this sounds like a solid plan! it's great to see some proactive thinking around post-quantum safety. freezing balances until a STARK proof is provided seems like a smart move to protect users. hopefully, this method will help secure funds and make the transition smooth for everyone. fingers crossed it works out!
