I have to agree that practical quantum-attacks are like fusion, human-level
AI, and nanotechnology — always 20 years away. In addition, several
reported approaches to quantum-attack resistance have fallen, and more will
fall in the next “20 years”.
That being said, it is interesting research. Here is the best link about
this particular approach:

Blockchain Commons can’t offer to fully fund this research, but if others
do we’d be glad to contribute a small grant.
