Open cryptoquick opened 4 weeks ago

cryptoquick commented 4 weeks ago

Description

What is this talk about? Give us as many details as possible.

Many have been concerned about Bitcoin's quantum security, but it turns out to be a very nuanced topic.

I go over the state of the art in post-quantum cryptography, cryptographically-relevant quantum computers, and its potential impact on Bitcoin.

What would an attendee learn from this talk?

Attendees should get a sense for how Bitcoin is vulnerable to quantum attack, and what can be done about it.

Is there anything folks should read up on before they attend this talk?

Definitely read the Draft BIP: QuBit - P2QRH spending rules

Sadly I won't be able to attend because we have a major deadline working for Ducat Protocol that I'll need to meet at this time.

Closing this unless someone else would like to pick up the talk.
