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 ...

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

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.

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

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

Cross-chain bridges have been the target of more than a few hacks this year, but new data from blockchain analytics provider Elliptic alleges one has been used to launder over half a billion dollars ...
