Quantum computing poses a serious threat to the cryptography blockchains currently rely on, while advances in AI compress best estimates for the threat's timeline. That's why experts gathered in Cambridge to coordinate research upgrading our cryptography to be quantum-resistant.

Quantum readiness is a shared problem for every chain. At SIWORLD we're building private payments on post-quantum primitives from day one: ML-KEM-768, ML-DSA-65 and hash-based STARKs. Still in development and pending independent review, and glad to share what we learn.

leanSPHINCS breaking Keccak-256 before $ETH breaks 2.5k?

Great work. Keep researching and keep building

Upgrading signatures isn't the whole job. As @alxkzmn put it at ETHTaipei, if a shielded-pool withdrawal is authorized by a pre-quantum ZK proof, a quantum attacker can just forge the proof and spend the funds. Apps need their own migration.

great to see experts collaborating to keep blockchain secure for the future

Starting now beats a rushed fork later. The hard part isn't the math, it's moving every old wallet before Q-day.

Post-quantum migration is a coordination problem as much as a cryptography one — the hard part will be moving existing accounts and signatures over without breaking wallets. Good to see the work starting years before Q-day, not after.

Let them have discussion that can prevent hacks like that of binance , Ethereum is the future such shenanigans need to happen on other Blockchains only

Crypto spent years fighting hackers and scammers. Now the final boss is literally physics.
