MIT Professor Proposes RLNC to Shield Blockchain from Quantum Threats
- —The RLNC method allows encrypting about 10% of data while protecting the entire array
- —Computational load could drop by roughly 90%
- —The Ethereum Foundation backs ZKnox to cut post-quantum protection costs by up to 12 times
- —Algorand uses FALCON signatures for protection against quantum threats
Why it matters: Blockchains need to prepare for 'harvest now, decrypt later' attacks, or data stolen today could be at risk in the future.
