Building a utility-scale quantum computer that can crack one of the most vital cryptosystems—elliptic curves—doesn’t require nearly the resources anticipated just a year or two ago, two independently ...

A new report by Capgemini warns that quantum computing may break the widely used public-key cryptographic systems within the next decade — threatening everything from online banking to blockchain ...

The shift reflects a growing view that network-level upgrades to blockchains like Bitcoin and Ethereum could take years, ...

Project 11 is looking to gauge the urgency of the quantum security risk to Bitcoin. Millions of addresses could be at risk if quantum computers are eventually able to break Bitcoin’s cryptography.

After research from Google suggested a potential threat to some cryptocurrencies, tokens like QRL and Cellframe (CEL) saw their values rise.

Bitcoin’s long-term security debate has sharpened after Glassnode mapped more than 6 million coins whose public keys have already been exposed on-chain, placing assets worth about $469 billion under ...

The recent Project Eleven bounty for quantum computers cracking cryptographic keys is a joke. It provides no serious incentive at all. Recently, Project Eleven (a quantum computing research group) ...

Michael Shaulov argued that changing to a post-quantum cryptographic signature scheme is “not a technical challenge” for ...
