Ethereum Builds Team To Guard Against Quantum Threat

The Ethereum Foundation has formed a new Post-Quantum (PQ) team, led by Thomas Coratger, to prepare the network for potential quantum computing threats. The team, which includes cryptographers and engineers, is transitioning from research to practical testing on devnets. Their work involves developing quantum-safe tools and testing new algorithms while ensuring current transactions remain unaffected. A $2 million prize pool has been announced to encourage improvements in quantum-resistant solutions, including $1 million dedicated to enhancing the Poseidon hash function. Multi-client devnets are already active, with biweekly research sessions and a Post-Quantum Day planned for March 2026. Although the quantum risk is not immediate, Ethereum is proactively addressing it to ensure a smoother transition and better protect users and the network. Community reactions are mixed, with some praising the initiative while others express concerns about implementation and wallet upgrades.

‘Time to go full PQ’ – Ethereum Foundation launches post-quantum push

The Ethereum Foundation (EF) has declared post-quantum (PQ) security a top strategic priority, aiming to accelerate its development with a target to "go full PQ" by 2026. A dedicated team has been formed to lead this initiative, focusing on making Ethereum quantum-resistant. The EF is offering a $1 million prize to improve the Poseidon hash function as part of its emphasis on hash-based cryptography. PQ developer networks are already in progress, and a formal roadmap will be released soon. In contrast, the Bitcoin community remains divided on the urgency of quantum threats. Some analysts suggest that if it lags in PQ readiness, Ethereum could significantly outperform Bitcoin in returns, potentially by 200%.
