Ethereum Prepares for Post-Quantum Risks Without Hard Fork
- Post-Quantum Preparation: Nico from the Ethereum Foundation's Kohaku project states that Ethereum accounts can begin preparing for post-quantum risks without waiting for a hard fork, with the current cost of about $0.07 per account providing users with a low-cost account-level protection solution.
- Technical Innovation: The SPHINCS- scheme mentioned by Nico is a hash-based post-quantum signature solution aimed at reducing on-chain verification costs, with the optimized variant C13 verifying at approximately 127,000 gas and utilizing a 3,704-byte signature, showcasing Ethereum's technological advancements in security.
- Account Abstraction Strategy: Ethereum's account abstraction plan allows wallets to define how transactions are approved and paid, with Vitalik Buterin emphasizing that this strategy will enhance Ethereum's long-term survival and security while supporting future privacy initiatives.
- Audits and Testing: Nico noted that the design has undergone an initial review, with more audits planned; although the current system is not finalized, this indicates that Ethereum's research into quantum-resistant account protection has moved into the testing phase, showing potential for widespread trials.
