BSCN(@BSCNews):LayerZero research tackles a big quantum problem for blockchains Blockchains verify thousands of validator signatures by bundling them into a single proof, but today’s method could be broken by future quantum computers. Quantum-safe signatures exist, but bundling them quickly has been hard. Aerie, new research from @LayerZero_Core with @a16zcrypto, Carnegie Mellon, and Imperial College London, bundled about 32,000 quantum-safe signatures in 0.65 seconds on a MacBook Pro. So far it has only been tested in benchmarks, not used on any live blockchain.
