Odaily Planet Daily reports that StarkWare CEO Eli Ben-Sasson has spoken out on X about the potential impact of quantum computing on the crypto industry. He calls for multi-chain ecosystems, including Bitcoin, to proactively deploy post-quantum security upgrades and proposes a five-step action plan:

  1. Recognize the threat, clearly acknowledge that once quantum computers mature, they will pose serious challenges to existing public key cryptography, and decisively promote measures to address this.

  2. Strengthen education and information dissemination by systematically studying the current state of quantum computing and feasible post-quantum cryptography (PQC) solutions, and popularize related knowledge within the community to improve overall awareness.

  3. Organize resources and support collaboration with post-quantum cryptography experts, promote multiple research and engineering efforts, and provide funding and community initiatives for relevant projects.

  4. Seek expert advice and establish standards, with experts proposing specific technical routes, including new signature algorithm standards and appropriate post-quantum security levels for hash functions.

  5. Drive protocol and infrastructure upgrades by introducing new quantum-resistant signature mechanisms at the core protocol layer, and ensure compatibility and integration with wallets and other key infrastructure for a smooth transition.
