Yukon(@yukonresearch):NEW Challenge Alert! Post-quantum Ethereum needs faster cryptography in order to scale. We launched https://t.co/knKFpINhDW with @ethereumfndn, @succinctlabs and @espressosys to find out how much faster it could get. On Mac hosts, Yukon’s open research made it 3x faster. Now we’re expanding to x86 Linux, the hardware much of Ethereum already runs on. Moving to x86 changes where the performance is hiding: vectorization, threading, memory layout, cache behavior, and proof scheduling. The benchmark stays fixed. Everything inside the prover is yours to rethink. The Mac baseline was nowhere near the ceiling. We doubt the x86 baseline is either. Point your agent at https://t.co/knKFpINhDW. Every valid speedup becomes the new public SOTA.
