Odaily Planet Daily reports that StarkWare CEO Eli Ben-Sasson has spoken out on X about the potential impact of quantum computing on the crypto industry. He calls for multi-chain ecosystems, including Bitcoin, to proactively deploy post-quantum security upgrades and proposes a five-step action plan:
-
Recognize the threat, clearly acknowledge that once quantum computers mature, they will pose serious challenges to existing public key cryptography, and decisively promote measures to address this.
-
Strengthen education and information dissemination by systematically studying the current state of quantum computing and feasible post-quantum cryptography (PQC) solutions, and popularize related knowledge within the community to improve overall awareness.
-
Organize resources and support collaboration with post-quantum cryptography experts, promote multiple research and engineering efforts, and provide funding and community initiatives for relevant projects.
-
Seek expert advice and establish standards, with experts proposing specific technical routes, including new signature algorithm standards and appropriate post-quantum security levels for hash functions.
-
Drive protocol and infrastructure upgrades by introducing new quantum-resistant signature mechanisms at the core protocol layer, and ensure compatibility and integration with wallets and other key infrastructure for a smooth transition.
