Anton Astafiev says preparing a way out of cryptographic collapse is essential to prevent the collapse of the crypto industry: “We are talking not about just Q-Day and quantum threat, but about a broader set of cryptography threats that are emerging. And we're now seriously considering and planning for the way out.”  “Because so far, the blockchain industry was like, ‘Well, if elliptic cryptography is broken today, that's it. We just shut it down and we walk home. There's no way out of it, we can't do anything.’”  “Realistically speaking, we can actually prepare, and there's some stuff that we're cooking that will get us on track for that.”  “It's not going to be easy, it's going to be quite a significant amount of work. Hopefully, we will never end up in that situation in the first place, but having a way out is better than not.”
