If you have some background in CS and want to get into some technical stuff without diving headfirst into the quantum rabbithole this book is great → https://ccpd.ciens.ucv.ve/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Noson-S.-Yanofsky-Mirco-A.-Mannucci-Quantum-Computing-for-Computer-Scientists.pdf
However if youre just getting started → Quantum computers and the Bitcoin blockchain | Deloitte this article is a good summary. Some good accounts to follow:

Biased on this one but I wrote this paper in 2021 → Vulnerability of blockchain technologies to quantum attacks - ScienceDirect, provides a good overview of the issues facing several of the major blockchains at the time.
This video → https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05Uy-hFFkRU gives a decent overview but there are many others that could be better out there!
