Ethereum Targets Quantum-Resistant L1 by 2029

Ethereum makes quantum resistance a top priority with a 2029 deadline

Ethereum Foundation Targets a Quantum-Resistant Base Layer by December 2029

The EF's Protocol cluster set a hard date for post-quantum Ethereum and graded 62 proposals for the fork that decides whether it holds.

Ethereum targets quantum-resistant L1 by 2029

The Ethereum Foundation has published ratings for 62 Hegotá proposals after collecting 397 assessments from about 60 protocol specialists across nine teams. The Ethereum Foundation said in a Sept. 7 post on X that its Protocol Cluster had released two…

Ethereum Foundation Sets 2029 Quantum Target and Narrows Hegotá Scope

FOCIL and Frame Transactions are the two must-ship proposals. A tapered issuance burn and a mandatory burn of execution rewards were declined because the cluster said issuance and reward policy belong in a broader ecosystem process.

Ethereum Sets a December 2029 Deadline to Beat Quantum Computers

The Ethereum Foundation has committed to a December 2029 deadline for making the network quantum-resistant, requiring five hard forks after 2027's Hegotá upgrade. Fresh Caltech and Oratomic research showing wallet-cracking attacks could need as few as 10,000 qubits is driving the urgency, and Bitcoin still has no formal timeline of its own.

Ethereum Quantum Resistance Roadmap Locks 2029 Deadline Altcoin News ETHNews

The Ethereum Foundation set December 2029 as a firm deadline for a quantum-resistant Layer 1. Only two proposals earned must-ship status in the Hegota upgrade: FOCIL and Frame Transactions. The Foundation rejected 28 EIPs to protect testing capacity and keep the post-quantum schedule intact. A formal reassessment in January 2027 could still move the target […]
