XRP Ledger targets full quantum resistance by 2028, outpaces Ethereum roadmap
Covered by 2 sources · 2 articles
The XRP Ledger is targeting full quantum resistance by 2028, positioning itself ahead of competing blockchains in defending against potential threats from quantum computing. Developers plan to begin hybrid security upgrades and audits starting in 2027, with the goal of protecting wallets against quantum attacks while maintaining existing user addresses unchanged. Ethereum's comparable quantum-resistance efforts are expected later, around 2029.
- XRP Ledger's quantum-readiness timeline puts it ahead of major competitors, including Ethereum, in addressing a long-term cryptographic vulnerability.
- The upgrade approach preserves existing wallet addresses and user experience while layering in quantum-resistant protections.
- Implementation begins with audits and hybrid security measures in 2027, preceding full deployment by 2028.
