Ability to compute hashes orders of magnitude faster will no more break crypto than the evolution from CPU mining to GPU mining to FPGA mining to ASIC mining did. So, no that part doesn't break crypto. On the cryptocurrency side, the difficulty self adjusts. On the the password cracking side, it reaffirms the need to use memory-hard hash functions that don't speed up so easily.
