Quantum Computing Vs. Blockchain: Impact on Cryptography

Quantum computers will not kill blockchain, but they might trigger fundamental changes in underlying cryptography. The major selling point of blockchain and its applications is that cryptographically secured distributed ledgers are virtually “unbreakable” under normal circumstances, given the current state of computational technology. Its validity, however, is heavily dependent on the “state of technology” assumption. […]

How to Protect a Blockchain From a Quantum Attack Using Entanglement Technology

One of the greatest concerns about cryptocurrencies is the reality of Quantum Computing. Cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin depend on cryptography to mine new coins and to protect their value. With the exception of a recent hacker attack on Verge that required a fork, cryptocurrencies have been hackerproof due to their encryption technology. However, Quantum Computing has […]
