When we start to see bitcoin wallets around the world empty, we'll know.

  The value of something is contingent upon someone being willing to pay for it. If bitcoin gets broken so obviously by a quantum computer, who would buy the coin? Seems like the least profitable way for someone to announce their new creation. (Unless destroying bitcoin is the whole point, I suppose)

    If your tech can destroy Bitcoin, then it's already over. It's only a matter of time. May as well capitalize or use it as a marketing stunt.

    You short it (or better short or buy puts on stocks correlated like COIN and MSTR). Then empty exhange hot wallets - people will assume they got hacked as part for the course.
