#BinanceHODLerTOWNS Ethereum strengthens its encryption for the post-quantum era
The core encryption of the Ethereum network is expected to evolve. BLS digital signatures, KZG commitments, and current verification mechanisms are considered weak against quantum computer attacks. To guard against these threats, Justin Drake unveiled a "Lean" roadmap aimed at addressing these risks by transitioning to cryptographic alternatives that rely entirely on hashing techniques.
Justin Drake summarized this new strategic direction for Ethereum with a powerful statement
"Next-generation encryption is the essence of victory, both offensively and defensively."
