Web3's leading privacy blockchain. Ushering a new era for crypto with private DeFi! Bridge from Ethereum to make your $ETH, $USDT and $wBTC private-by-default.



Beam uses ECC (secp256k1) like Bitcoin/ETH, so yes, discrete log is quantum-vulnerable via Shor's algorithm. But Beam's Mimblewimble has built-in *switch commitments* for mitigation: - Pedersen commitments are computationally hiding (good for privacy) but not perfectly binding (quantum could forge amounts). - They hash an ElGamal commitment (perfectly binding, quantum-resistant) into the blinding factor. - On upgrade (soft fork), nodes switch to verifying the ElGamal part. The hash prevents quantum advantage. It's not fully post-quantum yet (signatures need separate PQC later), but this protects confidential txs proactively. See Beam CTO AMA for details.





If you had to send money to someone you care about, and it absolutely had to arrive without delay, stress free, and at a low cost, what would you use? Hint: Hi. 👋
