Ethereum is preparing for the era of quantum computers ⚛️
The Ethereum Foundation has raised the issue of quantum threats to the highest institutional level and created a separate team for the active implementation of protection, not just research.
🔐 Key points:
• A special unit has been created with a focus on quantum resistance
• The strategy is based on LeanVM and hash-based signatures for ZK proofs
• Monthly dev meetings on transaction protection will start in February
• $2 million funding: Poseidon hash + post-quantum cryptography
• Lighthouse and Grandine clients are already testing quantum-resistant consensus
• Educational workshops and ecosystem preparation in 2026
🧠 Vitalik Buterin: “Ethereum must be secure for decades to come, without constant 'manual' intervention from developers.”
📌 Ethereum is acting proactively, laying the groundwork for cryptographic reliability for decades into the future.
