A quantum computer would render all existing encryption algorithms obsolete overnight. And if you had access to one of those why would your main priority be to destroy cryptocurrency anyway? there's no profit in that, you could only steal coins during transfer so people would just stop transfer until a stronger encryption algorithm is in use.
Why not attack your bank? take over their servers and demand a ransom in gold or something that would actually have value after the collapse?
Why not attack the government? remove all evidence of your existence, any warrants, or give yourself plenty of fake identities and remove the trace so you never have to pay tax again, and could probably receive lot's of "free" stuff without anyone ever noticing.
Why not read secret messages? maybe do a little inside trading, know that the globalist scum is up to and so on?
Anyone thinking temporary taking down cryptocurrencies is the main priority is just as dumb as your average burn loot murder thug who lack any consequential thinking skills.

Won't be much of a "bonus" once the algorithm is changed and the network comes back online. By that time it's proven to be more secure than any other system, assuming they succeed in brute force it of course. Quantum computers has been a known threat for a long time in the cryptographic world and most cryptocurrency projects are prepared for the day that threat becomes reality.

definitely not the main priority - just a "bonus"
