Ethereum's Strategy Against Quantum Computing Threats
- Quantum Preparedness: Nico, lead of the Ethereum Foundation's Kohaku privacy project, indicates that accounts can prepare for the post-quantum era at a cost of approximately $0.07 per account, a low-cost solution that avoids a network-wide hard fork, thereby maintaining the stability of Ethereum's base layer.
- User-Level Defense: This scheme allows users to opt-in to upgrade their security model without a protocol vote, which is crucial for the Ethereum ecosystem where achieving consensus is often challenging, enabling asset protection without impacting the overall network.
- Economic Viability: The cost of seven cents per account is trivial for retail wallets, and for DeFi protocols managing tens of thousands of user addresses, the aggregate cost would only be in the low thousands of dollars, significantly lower than potential quantum attack losses, indicating plausible large-scale adoption.
- Audit and Future Challenges: Although the initial review with Fable is complete, the design is not yet production-grade, and further audits will determine its resilience to formal security analysis, with integration into widely used wallets still taking months, raising questions about community prioritization moving forward.
