There’s an article in Quanta Magazine (https://www.quantamagazine.org)
that claims RSA encryption will still be viable after the quantum
computing revolution. I only skimmed it, but what struck me was the
mention of terabyte encryption keys.

you know for Peering and P2P since IIRC the 80s. It's basically how

well if
(insert economy) simply isn't working. Then these might be a better
idea.
And they might be right. Time will tell.
Steve raved/ranted to me and others how it wasn't new but now sexy
because
people other than banks (bland) can use it for everything from
Streaming
Spotify, to P2P gaming and lots more.

If it is as robust as it appears, I'm wondering if it will have the

revolutionary impact on the internet (tcp/ip and protocols built on

it), as the Brave browser is having on the web and browsers. Brave

bitcoin for contributing to content providers.
For example, would an IMAP email tech built on top on blockchains
make
email safer and make many vulnerabilities impossible?
