FTR: bitcoin-qt and litecoin-qt (which are also packaged for Debian ) are 
using QT5 for a while now.
Monero also uses QT5 and upstream is working on Debian packages [1]. I dunno 
if the plan is to also bring it to Debian, but I think there's a reasonable 
chance as they want to make it available for Tails.

If your favorite crypto currency hasn't been updated to use QT5, there's a 
reasonable chance it's pretty much unmaintained and that should raise some red 
flags. There are a LOT of crypto currency projects which cloned bitcoin a long 
time ago, changed a few parameters and thought they were done. Several don't 
even compile. That's not a Debian problem, but an upstream problem.
