There's an argument that a lot of the money that would have flowed into cryptocurrency has flowed into AI. Also, in the long term, there could be a generational shift from traditional investments such as real estate to nontraditional investments such as cryptocurrency and DeFis. I'd watch Gen Z preferences.

Eventually "cryptocurrencies" will go back to what they really are: a digital collectibles or a video-game like entertainment, or kinda like digital escape rooms, or an alternative money for illegal or black/gray market activity.
After that crypto will be disconnected from the traditional financial system (so called "TradFi").
But it will take a very long time until we'll get there, since lots of decision makers were already "bribed" with it, and now they will "talk their own book" by artificially prolonging the Crypto's life even when it doesn't make sense.
Wide CBDC adoption will be the final nail in the crypto's coffin. Same for quantum computers, but I'm sure that people will start inventing various quantum-resistant encryption and PoW/consensus schemes...

I think the only danger is quantum computers.

Of course they will. But not all of them will survive.
