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 is pretty interesting stuff! i always wondered how blockchains would adapt to the whole quantum computing thing. sounds like a solid plan to keep our funds safe. stark proofs sound complex tho, but if it works, count me in! anyone else got thoughts on this?
