King\'s College London secures early access to Google\'s Willow quantum chip

A research team at Britain\'s King\'s College London has secured early access to Google\'s next-generation quantum chip, Willow. The team was named the first beneficiary of an early-access programme run by Google\'s Quantum AI organisation and the UK\'s National Quantum Computing Centre. Led by physicist Eleanor Crane, the group plans to use Willow to model quantum analogues of brain neurons, aiming to link computational neuroscience with quantum-correspondence modelling.

Solana adopts Falcon signatures to counter quantum computing threat, says performance hit manageable

The Solana Foundation has outlined a plan to shift network security to prepare for quantum computing threats while maintaining performance and user experience through a phased rollout. Core development group Anza and validator client Firedancer from Jump Crypto have both chosen the quantum-resistant signature scheme Falcon and begun initial implementation. The foundation said the quantum threat is real but not imminent and that deployment is ready. It said any performance impact would be manageable.

Ripple says quantum computing threat no longer a fantasy, unveils XRP Ledger roadmap

Ripple said it will transition the XRP Ledger to a quantum-computing response system by 2028. It said assets are not in immediate danger, but the quantum threat has moved from theoretical to a realistic level, making timing for preparation important. Ripple warned that “harvest now, decrypt later” poses higher risk. It said XRP Ledger has an advantage because it supports protocol-level key replacement, unlike Ethereum.
