My prediction: at some point Bitcoin will go through an upgrade process to transfer user wallets to a key pair based on a quantum resistant public key algorithm. Users will be given a time frame to transmit their coins to the new wallets, and after that time is expired, EC-based wallets will not be considered valid transaction sources any longer. Classic cash conversion in the digital age.
