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.

Stellar launches quantum security plan to upgrade all accounts by end-2027

Stellar developers unveiled a three-step roadmap to shift to quantum-resistant cryptography to counter threats from quantum computers. The plan starts in 2026 with changes for corporate wallets and institutions, then a 2027 protocol upgrade enabling all accounts to add quantum-resistant signers while keeping existing addresses. A final phase will retire the current cryptography, with timing to be decided later. The foundation flagged dormant accounts as a key challenge.

New York court pauses lawsuit seeking ownership of 39,069 dormant bitcoin wallets

A New York court has temporarily paused proceedings in a lawsuit seeking to transfer ownership of tens of thousands of bitcoin wallets to the plaintiffs. The pause will remain in place until a July 14 hearing on an amicus brief. The case targets 39,069 addresses claimed to be lost or abandoned, but a recent transfer of about 35.55 bitcoin from a long-dormant address linked to the lawsuit has raised questions about that assertion.
