That has a clear implication that he knows something that he doesn't want to say publically

Very much so. But the specificity and severity of what he knows is not clear just from this. Not necessarily to the point of "bright flashing warning lights" as the top-level comment put it. Anyway, I certainly am glad that people are (as far as I can tell?) more or less on top of the post-quantum transition.

a crypto system is expected to resist for 30 years.

it doesnt need to be imminent for people to start moving now to post-quantum.

if he thinks we are 10 years away from QC, we need to start moving now
