Stellar pursues quantum-resistant migration without address changes, signing key replacement central
The Stellar Development Foundation unveiled QPP, a roadmap to prepare the Stellar (XLM) network for quantum computers, and said it aims to complete a shift of all accounts to quantum-resistant signatures by the end of 2027. The plan is designed to keep existing addresses and transaction histories intact while replacing only signing keys. It outlines a three-stage rollout from 2026, adds NIST-standardised ML-DSA support, and raises dormant-account handling as a remaining issue.

Ethereum 65 percent, Solana 100 percent vulnerable to quantum attacks as \'Q-day\' shock looms
Ethereum and Solana face significant security risks in a future era of quantum computers, an analysis said. Quantum security group Project Eleven assessed that about 65 percent of Ethereum and virtually all of Solana are vulnerable to quantum attacks that could undermine public-key cryptography. It cited risks to Ethereum validator keys and Solana addresses that embed public keys. The Ethereum Foundation and Solana ecosystem developers are preparing post-quantum upgrades, with timelines extending into the next decade.
