Today is World Quantum Day! A great reminder that quantum's impact on cryptography isn't theoretical, it's only a matter of time. To mark the occasion, CEO StaciW_DC sat down with world-renowned post-quantum cryptographer and Algorand CSO Chris Peikert to discuss the quantum threat to blockchain. Since 2022, Algorand has been leading in blockchain quantum resilience by securing its entire chain history with Falcon-signed State Proofs. In 2025, we took it further: the first quantum-resistant transaction protecting real digital assets was executed on mainnet. With Google now targeting 2029 for its own post-quantum migration, the urgency is clear. Algorand isn't waiting, we're already building for that future. Watch now! 👇

America is going (Q)uantum President Trump signs two quantum Executive Orders: 1. Protecting U.S. quantum research from foreign threats: Strengthens counterintelligence efforts (FBI and intelligence community) against espionage (e.g., by China). It also directs the Departments of Defense and Energy to build and host a quantum computer for scientific discovery and tasks Commerce with plans to expand federal investments in quantum companies. 2. Accelerating post-quantum cryptography (PQC) migration: Bolsters federal efforts to transition to quantum-resistant encryption standards to mitigate risks from future “Q-day” when powerful quantum computers could break current public-key cryptography.

🚨 JUST NOW: President Trump signs TWO executive orders securing the United States' spot as the WORLD LEADER in Quantum Computing ORDER 1: Launches a national effort to produce a quantum computer capable of performing important scientific calculations. It also aims to develop quantum-enabled sensors and networks within the next 5 years. ORDER 2: Directs federal agencies to transition their computer systems to quantum cryptography (post-quantum cryptography standards) by 2031. It positions the U.S. government to lead wider adoption of these stronger security standards to address future quantum computing threats

Quantum computers pose two threats to Bitcoin: Threat 1: A quantum computer will be built and used to break Bitcoin's cryptography. Threat 2: Even before a QC is built, delaying the preparations to ensure Bitcoin is quantum ready will lead to people losing confidence in Bitcoin. The solution to both threats: ensure Bitcoin becomes quantum resistant via initiatives like BIP 360 + make sure the world knows this will be taken care of in time.
