imToken urges blockchain industry to prepare for pre-quantum security risks

  • —imToken cited a "bunker mode" idea attributed to Ethereum researcher Justin Drake
  • —Ethereum EOAs expose public keys via signatures; Bitcoin Taproot addresses reveal keys directly
  • —Ethereum Foundation is developing leanXMSS signatures and leanVM aggregation; EIP-8141 proposes flexible verification
  • —imToken warned users not to enter seed phrases into unofficial "post-quantum" tools
Why it matters: Quantum risk to BTC and ETH signatures shapes long-term holder risk assessments and speeds up work on post-quantum cryptography.
