This seems like a sensible approach. I think it would be better to spend our "developer consensus capital" on something like this than on more "scaling" infrastructure.
I'm not anti-covenants in principle, but the QC issues are so potentially damaging (although very low probability) that it seems that even quasi-ossification proponents could get behind it....
No, this is just as retarded as covenants, worse in fact ... They go hand in hand
This is an attempt to normalize forced upgrades
Quantum is a hoax

I can see that, any links or docs I can read about it

The quantum hoax? just posted a link to a decent video on it
To put it even more simply though that scaling the number of qubits needed to crack a key is fundamentally no different than directly cracking the key... its all just scammer word games to explain why it doesn't work and they need more money for R&D... scammers in Bitcoin then ride the FUD train.

Good point.

what this guy said. with the disclaimer that I can't tell if quantum is a hoax or not, but I trust my instincts.

xDDDDDDDD Thank good you are not the decision maker. Feel free to have this incorrect opinion, but don't get in the way of us other people fixing the issue instead of pretending it's not a problem.

And who are you exactly? Just because your ego wants to believe it can solve a problem doesn't make the problem real. I'll call out your delusions as I see fit, scammer.
Such a quantum threat would also be a quantum miner, making key-cracking superfluous.

Wtf are you talking about. Quantum threat is only about breaking key-signing of UTXOs.
When it comes to mining, quantum algos improves SHA generation only slightly, nothing game changing.
Anyways its clear from this post that you are clueless, so its an end-of-topic from my side.

clueless
You're fudding a computing hoax going back to the 70's thats still not doing anything, yea you're a real expert
Coherence of the number of qubits needed to crack a signing key is exactly as achievable as brute forcing it, it's a scam, same difficulty with new wording
reply
yea you're a real expert
I wouldn't go that far, but nevertheless I added my remarks to the PR discussion for this BIP. I encourage you to do the same on the github PR page! Surely you have some useful insight to share with the community xDDD

What would you have to see from a QC to make you think ECDSA keys are vulnerable?
reply
Some consistent demonsterable undeniable quantum supremacy that illuminates the path to scaling the impossible

It seems like Bitcoin may become plagued with omnibus-ism: if we're gonna do a soft fork for quant, we might as well do the great consensus cleanup...
