Bitcoin BIP-361 Proposes Quantum Defense Migration That Could Freeze Millions of BTC
A new Bitcoin Improvement Proposal outlines a three-phase plan to defend the network against quantum computing attacks, but critics warn that Phase B could permanently freeze coins held in legacy wallets. The debate signals that post-quantum cryptography is no longer a distant concern for blockchain infrastructure.
Hyperbridge Cross-Chain Bridge Exploit: $12M Drained via Mint Function Vulnerability
A critical vulnerability in Hyperbridge's token minting function allowed an attacker to drain $12M across three chains, highlighting persistent risks in cross-chain bridge architecture.
Hedera Publishes Post-Quantum Migration Roadmap as NIST Finalizes PQC Standards
Hedera released a detailed post-quantum cryptography migration roadmap in April 2026, outlining a phased transition from Ed25519 and ECDSA to NIST-standardized quantum-resistant algorithms. With expert surveys placing odds of a cryptographically relevant quantum computer at over 50% by the late 2030s, the timeline for migration is tighter than many networks acknowledge.
