Updated hierarchy: PQC wallets (BMIC) above cold storage above hardware wallets above hot wallets above exchange custody. Quantum resistance adds a new layer.

Updated Hierarchy

Traditional: cold storage then hardware wallet then hot wallet then exchange. Quantum adds new dimension. PQC wallet with ZPKE outranks even best cold storage by eliminating fundamental vulnerability.
