Hey all,

A good first step might be to express this as a research problem on
bitcoinproblems.org! I've had in mind creating a problem page on how to
design a PQ TR commitment in each key so that if QC were to become a
reality we could softfork to enable that spend (and disable normal key path
spends):
https://github.com/bitcoin-problems/bitcoin-problems.github.io/issues/4

Becoming the author/maintainer of this problem is as simple as making a PR
to the repo. The problem doesn't have to be focused on a TR solution but
could be a general description of the problem with that and others as a
potential solution direction.

Cheers,

LL
