Ethereum Unveils Post-Quantum Security Roadmap For Institutions
Ethereum is beginning to formalize its post-quantum security push in public. ETH Foundation researcher Will Corcoran used a presentation at the Institutional Ethereum Forum in New York to lay out both the threat model and the protocol work already underway. The effort matters well beyond ETH, he argued, because the core bottleneck is not unique […]

Ethereum could be approaching a defining turning point, a rare opportunity to rebuild from the ground up rather than continue evolving piece by piece. With the proposed Quantum upgrade gaining attention, developers and researchers are exploring changes that go beyond routine improvements, potentially rethinking security, scalability, and long-term resilience. Rather than layering fixes onto an already complex system, this moment opens the door to a clean-slate redesign. How Quantum Resistance Could Future-Proof Ethereum An Ethereum researcher, Justin Drake, who co-authored Google’s....
Ripple has unveiled a multi-phase roadmap to prepare the XRP Ledger (XRPL) for a post-quantum future, aiming to achieve full readiness by 2028. The announcement comes as advances in quantum computing raise concerns that the cryptography used by many blockchains today could eventually be undermined—potentially putting long-term users and high-value accounts at risk. XRPL Faces […]
In a livestream broadcast titled “Post-Quantum Cardano,” ADA founder Charles Hoskinson laid out a roadmap for making the blockchain quantum-resistant. His remarks come amid rapid developments in quantum computing hardware, including breakthroughs from Microsoft and other tech heavyweights, as well as newly released US government standards for post-quantum cryptography. Hoskinson opened the session by highlighting […]
Federal agencies of the US government are expanding their calls for quantum computing resistant encryption methods. In effect, the National Institute of Standards (NIST) recently announced a request for public-key post-quantum algorithms. This action follows warnings from the National Security Agency (NSA) about the risks of potential quantum-based....
Bitcoin open-source engineer Matt Corallo pushed back on claims that Bitcoin developers are “sleepwalking” on quantum risk, arguing instead that a practical post-quantum roadmap is already taking shape and may be simpler than critics suggest. Speaking on the Unchained podcast episode published Feb. 22, Corallo said the key work can be framed in two main […]
