That’s true, but there’s some precedent for picking a block that everyone agrees upon (that exists before quantum computers) and changing the rules at that block to prevent someone from rewriting the blockchain. A lot depends on how much warning we have.
It looks like making a cryptocoin that can survive quantum computers might be a high value activity.
