Today, I want to ponder the question “could blockchain tech be vulnerable to quantum decryption” and look at what others are saying as well as add some of my own thoughts to the conversation.
I think the post-quantum cryptography movement is an amazing solution in the works to solve the issue of what may happen when quantum computation becomes too powerful for the resistance offered by hashing and symmetric encryption. Asymmetric encryption is already vulnerable to standard brute force and many other attacks.
