About Event
Have you heard about quantum computing and the privacy apocalypse? Most modern cryptographic systems (blockchains included) use RSA or Elliptic Curves, but these systems are vulnerable to quantum attacks.
In this semi-technical discussion we will cover common myths about quantum computers, the basics of post-quantum cryptography and the practical challenges of using them in blockchains.
Ample time will be given for Q&A and discussion so bring your curiosity and your dumbest questions and let's get into it.
