PQ Slate

New paper basically matched the recent Google circuit that slashed ECC quantum resources for Shor's algorithm, plus an extra 6.5-10% gate reduction. No zk-proof concealing the circuit this time. Out there for the world to see. #Quantum #Crypto #PQC arxiv.org/abs/2606.02235

@EliBenSasson It's always been cycles. Imagine spiraling debt, high inflation, AI surveillance, and debanking. The case for crypto hasn't changed. If anything, it's only getting stronger. The future of crypto is sovereign, decentralized, and PQ secure.

Generally speaking, crypto seems to be going through an identity crisis. On the one hand, several long-time OGs have left, and on the other, we're finally seeing some love from institutions and TradFi, which is everything crypto has rebelled against. It's challenging crypto's core narrative.

@scottmelker @YahooFinance Stablecoins are just the first wave of RWAs. Once commodities and hard assets are tokenized, they will directly compete with fiat for settlement. Crypto isn't just upgrading the dollar's rails, it's bringing competition to money itself. It's just the beginning of the story.

Crypto didn’t kill the dollar, it gave it better rails. Watch The Daily Wolf on @YahooFinance!

The case for crypto hasn't changed. If anything, it's only getting stronger. The future of crypto is sovereign, decentralized, and PQ secure.

Everyone’s blinded by the AI hype today. But imagine spiraling debt, high inflation, heavy financial surveillance, and debanking. CROPS for the entire crypto ecosystem sounds pretty good at that point. It’s all cycles and capital will rotate.

@arc If you want true, sovereign, decentralized PQC protection, then the answer is $QRL.

Quantum computing introduces long-term risk for digital infrastructure, from wallet signatures to validator integrity and more. Circle’s post-quantum whitepaper explores Arc’s phased approach to resilience across: → USDC → Smart contracts → Validators → Infrastructure systems Planning for long-term security and institutional adoption. arc.io/post-quantum-w…

A warning from @CreusMoreira targeting Q-Day between 2028/2030. Networks are sitting ducks. Hardware requires a chip overhaul from $LAES. While cryptocurrency infrastructure scrambles to migrate, native PQC networks like $QRL are already there. #Qday youtube.com/watch?v=cnC-SR…

Massive move from $IBM. Their $10B quantum roadmap and new CHIPS foundry target a fault-tolerant system by 2029. As hardware advances, legacy encryption is on a timer. The ultimate race for crypto right now is migrating to native PQC.

@wmougayar Not how competition and free markets work.

If BTC is digital gold, and ETH is the largest smart contract platform, these spots are untouchable, so stop fighting them. When they sneeze, everyone else chokes. Let these alphas lead, and the rest will follow.

@aliomerhorzum @pinedegen The utility is the product. Price is simply what the market attributes to the value created by that utility and demand.

@pinedegen well the price is the main product

@sodofi_ CROPS isn't just an Ethereum thing. All of crypto should rally around these principles. The alternative? Centralized DLTs run by CEOs. Crypto basically reduced to tech stocks.

i’ll be honest. when the EF mandate was introduced i didn’t fully get it i’m a devrel. i’m used to building vibey ai slop apps that go viral on the timeline. and building apps that fully embody censorship resistance, privacy and security is much harder. i grew up in the bay area, went to stanford, and now live in sf. the tech culture here is so hyperfocused on growth at all costs. i believe most people have good intentions. but i also know that building with intention takes effort. and when the sole focus is number go up, intention is the first thing that gets forgotten all of that to say, to me, the mandate was a reminder of what actually matters. building technology is a superpower. a power we shouldn’t take lightly. we each have a responsibility to build with intention. and yes, that might take more effort. but a little extra effort now compounds. and our future generations will thank us for it.

Imagine AI systems weaponized against the public then being debanked for a low social credit score. CROPS isn't just an Ethereum thing. All of crypto should rally around these principles. The alternative? Centralized DLTs run by CEOs. Crypto basically reduced to tech stocks.

@rosarioborgesi CROPS is crucial, but economics clearly play a role as well. A little pragmatism goes a long way.

I have chosen Ethereum for the vision, not the price.

@scottmelker @YahooFinance What are chains willing to sacrifice to be "faster and cheaper"? Censorship resistant, open source, private, and secure basically sums up what makes crypto valuable in the first place. Abandon it and crypto is reduced to DLT's with a CEO. No thanks to that version.

Ethereum’s new pitch: Slow, expensive, unstoppable. 🐺 WATCH The Daily Wolf on @YahooFinance.

@MastrXYZ Filtering through the noise and staying focused. My feed is a dumpster fire of distraction.

I want to understand how people really feel in this space. What is your biggest challenge here? Finding real people? Filtering noise? Avoiding scams? Staying consistent? Building trust? Keeping your sanity? Getting reach without selling your soul? Staying human in a market that often rewards the opposite? Feel free to add your own point or comment below.

@Cointelegraph So the great crypto experiment ends with banks making more money and tracking us better at the same time....clearly this is what crypto set out to do. It's about time for crypto to go back to its roots.

⚡️ JUST IN: McKinsey sees a $4 trillion shift toward a three-layer onchain monetary system built on stablecoins, tokenized bank deposits, and central bank money.

@chillerid76 The best part of QRL? It's migrating to PoS. QRL 2.0 has a QRVM with smart contracts. Currently being audited by Trail of Bits. No messy migrations or freezing vulnerable assets. More than a hedge, it's the solid ground to build for quantum uncertainty.

How does Quantum Resistant Ledger $QRL compare to major quantum companies? It seems that Google’s Willow quantum chip announcement in December 2024 kicked off a strong new quantum cycle. $IONQ $QBTS $RGTI

@hosseeb Terrible analogy. If anything they seem to be taking a Linux approach.

Ethereum is the Microsoft of crypto.

@adam3us @coinbureau PQC being adopted across the board. Should crypto be last? Innovation is good for the ecosystem and should be embraced.

@coinbureau this is nonsense, false alt-coin promotional spin on top of an article by MSM. bitcoin is the most advanced in developing robust solutions in actual fact.

⚠️ALERT: FT reports that the crypto industry is now bracing for quantum computing threat. Here's the brutal truth nobody in CT wants to hear: Only ~15 crypto projects on Earth are seriously building for quantum. If your favorite coin isn't one of them, you're holding a wallet with a death clock. The list 👇 PROTOCOL-NATIVE QUANTUM RESISTANT (mainnet, today): 🔷 QRL (XMSS, mainnet since 2018) 🔶 Abelian (lattice-based, mainnet 2022) 🔷 Cellframe (Dilithium + Picnic) 🔶 Mochimo (WOTS+, audited by Dr. Hülsing) 🔷 xx Network (David Chaum, PQ BFT consensus) 🔶 Nexus (FALCON + Signature Chains) PQC LIVE IN PRODUCTION (partial): 🔷 Algorand — Falcon state proofs since 2022, first Falcon mainnet tx Nov 2025 (consensus still Ed25519) 🔶 Hedera — SEALSQ QS7001 chip, shipped Nov 2025 ACTIVELY IMPLEMENTING (testnet): 🔷 QANplatform — Dilithium, EVM-compatible testnet 🔶 Tron — QuantumShield hybrid signatures on testnet 🔷 Circle's Arc — USDC-native L1, opt-in Dilithium + Falcon at mainnet (2026) ROADMAP ONLY (still vulnerable today): 🔷 Bitcoin — BIP-360 + BIP-361 (7-year migration) 🔶 Ethereum — $2M PQ team, pq.ethereum .org, 2029 target 🔷 Cardano — IO Research "Vision 2026: Post Quantum Secure" proposal 🔶 Solana — Falcon roadmap (April 2026), Winternitz Vault live 2+ yrs 🔷 Ripple/XRP — 4-phase roadmap, ML-DSA on AlphaNet, 2028 target Not listed = not building = your funds, eventually someone else's. Harvest now, decrypt later.

@coinbureau QRL is currently XMSS PoW and moving to ML-DSA-87 PoS with QRL 2.0. PoS will bring QRVM with smart contracts. Currently being audited by Trail of Bits. $QRL is avoiding the quantum mess entirely while building vault like security for on-chain. Worth a look.
