Don't laugh, that's the key to making many "brute force" approaches feasible, and that's why our current used encryption algorithms are at risk.

With that said, I don't think quantum computing really works, otherwise someone would have made off with a good chunk of the cryptocurrencies by now.

I wouldn’t worry about the current algos. Once they actually become at risk there is much, much more available already.
