Question 59: Is the SCDO network vulnerable to quantum computing threats?
Answer: Currently, SCDO uses an elliptic curve encryption algorithm similar to that of Bitcoin, and its resistance to general quantum computing is comparable to other mainstream chains in the short term. Truly powerful quantum computers may be able to break existing signature algorithms, but such capabilities have not yet emerged globally. Once a quantum threat approaches, SCDO can respond by upgrading the cryptographic algorithms through a hard fork (for example, by introducing quantum-resistant signatures). Therefore, in terms of the current technological state, SCDO's security risk against quantum computing is relatively low, but the team and community will continue to monitor advancements in quantum technology and prepare upgrade plans in advance.
