To be “quantum safe,” a blockchain must adopt cryptographic primitives—signatures, hashing, key encapsulation—that could ...

Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) has emerged as a cornerstone of modern public‐key systems, offering high levels of security with relatively small key sizes. Central to many advanced cryptographic ...

Quantum computing may prove to be an existential threat to Bitcoin, but human panic and slow preparation are bigger ...

Abstract Chevyrev and Galbraith recently devised an algorithm which inputs a maximal order of the quaternion algebra ramified at one prime and infinity and constructs a supersingular elliptic curve ...

IBM scientists entangled 120 qubits in a single coherent “cat state,” a record-breaking feat in quantum computing.

Experts warn that quantum computers, which operate fundamentally differently from classical machines, could soon render ...

Breakthroughs from Google, Caltech, and IBM have reignited debate over “Q-Day,” when quantum computers could break Bitcoin’s cryptography.

In short, quantum computing will impact payment standards in future. But the good news is we are adequately prepared.
