I guess those would be unaffected but those projects would still need to swtich from ecdsa to something else that is "quantum secure" for all their signing right ?

Don't know about the others, but Nxt Account Control feature includes QC-resistance.

How difficult is it for Bitcoin and Ethereum to switch their current algorithms to quantum resistant cryptographic algorithms?
Ethereum is migrating to PoS. Bitcoin will be dead.

But Ethereum still needs to take care their public key attack issues. Is it easy for Etheruem or POS to switch to a new algorithms to protect the public keys?

Pretty much all current public-key cryptography is done for.

PoW blockchain mining too. PoS/PoI/DPoS blockchains unaffected.

If quantum computers become popular, what impact will it bring to Bitcoin and other existing cryptocoins?

Two years ago I was the first German blogger that took notice of Nxt. I hope for IOTA I can also play an important role to create attention in the German speaking communities (what includes Switzerland and Austria as well).

This first post includes a lot of information from this thread also some parts of the cointelegraph interview and other sources from the web.
In addition I brought attention to Jinn and how IOTA is related to this semiconductor start up:

Have a good start in the week!


Thanks a lot !

This would make a good hardware key for a brainwallet.

"The invention involves the creation of devices with unique identities on a nano-scale employing state-of-art quantum technology. Each device we've made is unique, 100% secure and impossible to copy or clone."

A version history at least indication of what was changed would be nice.

Basically, this is the previous version with the new tip selection algorithm (see here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.12860801) included.

Maybe it is possible to separate then somehow, indicating which is which? will be a lot of confusion and questions about it in future Smiley

No need, users will use only the secret seed. That string will be published only once during the sale.

When will the sale?
