Quantum Threat: Blockchains Prepare for Future Risks
Update: 2025-12-19
Description
Major blockchain networks, including Aptos and Solana, are proactively preparing for potential quantum attacks by testing quantum-resistant technologies. This move comes as a response to concerns about long-term security, with some influential figures arguing for early preparation due to the significant time needed to update global systems. However, Bitcoin developers, like Blockstream CEO Adam Back, believe practical quantum attacks are still decades off, causing a tension between preparing for future risks and avoiding alarm. This ongoing debate is even causing some investors to diversify their holdings.
