AI Coding Slashes Quantum-Safe Bitcoin Transaction Cost Estimate from $320 to $66 in One Week
Key Highlights StarkWare has demonstrated a quantum-resistant Bitcoin transaction method that operates within current protocol rules, requiring no soft fork or network upgrade. The approach uses hash-based cryptography to protect against quantum computers deriving private keys from exposed public keys, but costs approximately $320 in computing per transaction under current implementation. Significant limitations remain: transactions ...
