While “Q-Day” preys on Bitcoin fans’ minds, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong is sanguine about the threat posed by quantum computing to the encryption that underpins cryptocurrency.

He argued that the issue is “solvable” in a recent interview, pointing to the exchange’s newly established quantum advisory board and its work with blockchains to “upgrade to a post-quantum cryptography world.”

Blockchain projects around the world are taking preemptive action, with Bitcoin developers pushing the BIP 360 proposal, the Ethereum Foundation elevating post-quantum security to a top strategic priority, and the Solana Foundation trialling quantum-resistant digital signatures on a testnet.
