Stateful hash-based signature (HBS) schemes provide quantum-resistant digital signing for software and firmware. Standardized by NIST in SP 800-208, LMS/HSS and XMSS use one-time keys to ensure strong ...

The rise of quantum computing poses both promise and peril for modern cryptography—and blockchains lie right at the crossroads. As machines become capable of shattering our current cryptographic ...

Experts in the field believe a quantum computer could emerge in the next decade. With BIP-360 co-author Ethan Heilman ...

To sign a message, they reveal a preimage for one hash in each pair, choosing the preimage to reveal based on a bit of the message. A signature verifier re-hashes the message and preimages to ensure ...

Quantum-resistant tokens use advanced cryptographic methods to protect against the powerful capabilities of quantum computers. Quantum-resistant tokens are a new generation of cryptocurrencies built ...

"Lean Ethereum" is targeting quantum resistance, 10,000 TPS, and 100% uptime for the Layer-1. The proposal suggests that the network rely more on hash-based cryptography. Ethereum celebrated its 10th ...

Quantum computers still look like lab toys: Racks of hardware, error-prone qubits and almost no real-world applications. Yet if you check the roadmaps of major layer-1 blockchains, a new priority now ...

Google revealed its road map for implementing new post-quantum cryptography (PQC) standards from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) with the addition of quantum-resistant ...
