The cryptography protecting most blockchain transactions is getting easier to break.
That does not mean quantum computers are a threat yet. It means the gap between today’s quantum capability and the defenses securing blockchain signatures is getting smaller.
This new technical piece from Circle explores:
→ What is the gap between quantum attacks and blockchain defenses?
→ Why the threshold for breaking ECDSA keeps falling
→ Why wallet and chain infrastructure will need to change
→ How Circle is preparing for post-quantum signatures
