Charles Hoskinson says quantum computers likely to be commercialised before 2033, need to prepare now

Charles Hoskinson, founder of Cardano (ADA), warned there is more than a 50 percent chance quantum computers will pose a practical threat to cryptocurrencies before 2033. He said the risk should be treated as a near-term technical deadline. Cardano is pushing a shift to lattice-based cryptography and plans to reflect U.S. NIST post-quantum standards, including FIPS 203 to 205. Similar preparations are under way at Solana.
