Developers behind BNB Smart Chain have demonstrated that post-quantum cryptography can already function on a live blockchain architecture, though the transition comes with major trade-offs in transaction size and throughput. The findings highlight how networks may eventually adapt to the long-term risks posed by quantum computing. BNB Smart Chain Advances Quantum Security Testing BNB Smart … Read more
The Casper Association has launched a multi-year technical roadmap focused on institutional-grade infrastructure for real-world asset tokenization and artificial intelligence-driven commerce. Bridging the Ethereum Ecosystem The Casper Association on May 12 unveiled a multi-year technical roadmap aimed at positioning the Casper Network as the primary infrastructure for regulated asset tokenization and the burgeoning machine-to-machine economy. … Read more
Paradigm researcher Dan Robinson published a proposal on May 1 that could let dormant bitcoin holders, including those believed to be Satoshi Nakamoto’s coins, silently prove address control before quantum computers can crack their keys. Key Takeaways: Paradigm’s Dan Robinson proposed PACTs on May 1, 2026, offering bitcoin holders a free, private way to timestamp … Read more
Solana’s two primary validator client developers have independently identified the same post-quantum cryptographic solution for the network, publishing working code on Github as blockchain researchers across the industry step up preparations for a future threat that remains years away. Key Takeaways: Anza and Firedancer independently selected the Falcon post-quantum signature scheme for Solana, with code … Read more
Post-quantum startup Project Eleven awarded its 1 BTC Q-Day Prize to independent researcher Giancarlo Lelli on April 24, 2026, for breaking a 15-bit elliptic curve cryptography key on a publicly accessible IBM quantum computer, a result the company called the largest public demonstration of its kind to date. Key Takeaways: Project Eleven awarded researcher Giancarlo … Read more
Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson said Bitcoin’s proposed quantum fix, BIP 361, would effectively confiscate 1.7 million BTC while misrepresenting the scope of changes required to pull it off. Key Takeaways: Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson says BIP 361 misclassifies its own fix, requiring a hard fork Bitcoin has never executed. As of March 1, 2026, over … Read more
While proponents argue that the proposal prevents a “silent drain” of assets by quantum-capable actors, critics like Frederic Fosco contend that the solution is more dangerous than the threat. They argue that implementing a mechanism to freeze coins violates bitcoin’s core tenet of absolute property rights. Key Takeaways: BIP-361 aims to protect bitcoin from quantum … Read more
Justin Sun said Tron will pursue a post-quantum upgrade, aiming to bring NIST-backed cryptography to its mainnet. Key Takeaways: Justin Sun said Tron will launch a PQC upgrade. NIST standards may strain Tron throughput due to 10x larger signatures. TRX traded near $0.33 as roadmap details from Tron remain pending. Tron Pushes Quantum-Safe Cryptography as … Read more
A Bitcoin researcher and Starkware executive published a working scheme this week that makes new bitcoin transactions quantum-safe today, using only rules that have existed in the protocol for years. Key Takeaways: Starkware CPO Avihu Levy published QSB on April 9, 2026, enabling quantum-safe bitcoin transactions with zero protocol changes. Levy’s scheme costs $75 to … Read more
