Bitcoin and Ethereum Aren’t Ready For Quantum Computers, Researcher Says
Mysten Labs claims newer blockchains are ready for quantum computing, but older networks risk being left behind.

In brief
Quantum computers threaten blockchain security by cracking private keys with Shor’s algorithm.
Chains using EdDSA, like Solana and Sui, are easier to upgrade for quantum resistance.
Older chains like Bitcoin face steep risks and costly upgrades, or risk leaving assets exposed.
Quantum computing could one day break the cryptographic foundations that secure trillions of dollars in crypto assets—and according to a new report from Mysten Labs, some blockchains are more unprepared than others.
The report, released Wednesday, argues that networks using the EdDSA signature scheme—such as Solana, Sui, and Near—are structurally better positioned to withstand quantum threats.
Older chains like Bitcoin and Ethereum, which rely on the ECDSA system, face steeper cryptographic and logistical hurdles to implement post-quantum defenses.
As more corporations and governments establish Bitcoin treasuries, Kostas Chalkias, co-founder and Chief Cryptographer at Mysten Labs, said the pressure to meet post-quantum security standards is growing.
"Governments are well aware of the risks posed by quantum computing. Agencies worldwide have issued mandates that classical algorithms like ECDSA and RSA must be deprecated by 2030 or 2035," Chalkias told Decrypt.
"That means if your blockchain supports sovereign assets, national treasuries in crypto, ETFs, or CBDCs, it will soon be required to adopt post-quantum cryptographic standards, if your community cares about long-term credibility and mass adoption," he added.
Edwards-curve Digital Signature Algorithm (EdDSA) is a newer, faster, and easier-to-implement digital signature scheme that avoids common Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm (ECDSA) pitfalls, like compromised security from weak random number generation, nonce reuse, and side-channel leakage.
