For the former, Sui proposes ML-DSA-65 in Level three, which is being used by Chrome and Cloudflare to protect web traffic. SLH-DSA-SHA2-128s, a hash-based signature scheme, will be applied for smart contract vaults holding high-value assets, ensuring compatibility with post-quantum standards adopted by other financial networks.<\/p>\n<p>The transition to these new signature schemes will be opt-in but seamless, with users conserving the same seed phrases using a new derivation path. Deposit addresses would remain the same, facilitating the adoption of these measures by reducing user involvement.<\/p>\n<p>The key for this upgrade path is Address Aliases, which allow updating authorization keys to post-quantum while holding addresses and assets in place. \u201cNo forced migration, no expensive transfer of everything an account holds,\u201d Sui stressed.<\/p>\n<p>Mysten Labs\u2019 co-founder and chief product officer Adeniyi Abiodun <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/EmanAbio\/status\/2085376946490212689?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">highlighted the convenience of this easy upgrade<\/a> path for users. <strong>\u201cQuantum resistant accounts and investment vaults with no need to change addresses,\u201d<\/strong> he declared.<\/p>\n<p>ML-DSA-65 accounts are expected to enter testnet by year-end, while full authentication using these signatures might come to mainnet by Q1 2027. Similarly, quantum-safe vaults will be introduced into Sui\u2019s mainnet before year-end.<\/p>\n<p>Sui\u2019s move comes as the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has proposed a quantum transition timeline that recommends deprecating traditional cryptography (the one used for cryptocurrency) by 2030 and disallowing it by 2035 in favor of quantum-resistant signatures.<\/p>\n<p>Industry heavyweights are also working to avoid quantum mishaps. On July 25, <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/a-quantum-computer-could-one-day-break-crypto-security-coinbase-is-preparing-now\/\">Coinbase announced that it was working<\/a> to adapt its CoreKMS key management system to a post-quantum version, aiming for partial implementation by 2027.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/security\/sui-signals-q1-2027-mainnet-upgrade-to-avert-quantum-threat\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Bitcoin News ) Key Takeaways Sui is adding quantum-resistant signatures to protect user accounts and vaults from future quantum threats.
