Ethereum researcher warns AI may break ECDSA before quantum computers, urges \'bunker mode\' planning
Justin Drake of the Ethereum Foundation warned that the ECDSA signature system used by Bitcoin and Ethereum could be broken by AI before quantum computers reach “Q-day”. He urged the blockchain industry to plan for “bunker mode” and recommended a controlled mass migration of assets to fresh addresses whose public keys remain hidden behind a hash. He said holders should not rush or panic and urged major firms to harden cold storage.

Vitalik Buterin changes Ethereum roadmap priorities, raises focus on quantum resistance
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin (비탈릭 부테린) said he released a revised version of his 2023 Ethereum roadmap and raised the priority of quantum safety. He overlaid the earlier roadmap on the Ethereum Foundation’s latest layer-1 Strawmap to show items that remained and those whose priority changed. The Strawmap lays out upgrades across consensus, data and execution layers and sets five end goals, including a post-quantum L1. Buterin also proposed EIP-8288 in June 2026, and the foundation formed a post-quantum security team targeting 2029.

Ethereum Foundation releases \'Strawmap\' draft, seeks six-month upgrade cycle
Ethereum Foundation researcher Justin Drake released a draft technical roadmap called the \'Strawmap\' proposed by the foundation\'s protocol team. The document, aimed at researchers and developers, lays out overall directions for Ethereum layer 1 protocol upgrades. It is a proposal for discussion rather than a final roadmap. The draft suggests a six-month upgrade cycle under a plan for about seven forks through 2029.
