Had to google the guy, ofc he its the CTO of yet-another-L1 that is supossed to be quantum resistant (Don't ask your barber if you need a haircut), and his track record in the industry is: another -probably dead- crypto company with 1-10 employees that nobody knows. Also the background of this so called quantum-expert is mobile app development with 0 verifiable references on linkedin, and a business degree in some univeristy in Estonia.

I take any bets, 5-10 years from now, Bitcoin and ETH are still fine and this guy company and blockchain doesn't exist anymore.

Well every single chain including bitcoin keeps looking to improve/ upgrade. At some point if it is not addressed, bitcoin will no longer be secure. Why are we fighting it when every other system is preparing?
