Buterin and Drake Warn AI Could Weaken Crypto Wallet Security Sooner Than Expected
- —Drake said AI could break ECDSA, used by Bitcoin and Ethereum, within months
- —Buterin said rushed wallet migrations are riskier than the threat itself
- —Recommended using addresses with no signing history and rotating multisig keys after each operation
- —Buterin called for stronger safety margins in lattice-based schemes and more hash-based methods
Why it matters: The debate affects every BTC and ETH holder: post-quantum readiness could become a key factor for wallets and protocols.
