The Cost of Quantum Resistance: A Hash-Based Commit-Reveal Alternative for Minimizing Blockchain Infrastructure Overhead
Keir Finlow-Bates, Markus Jakobsson, Hossein Siadati
The transition to post-quantum cryptography in blockchain systems such as Bitcoin and Ethereum is often framed as a purely cryptographic problem. In practice, it also presents sign…
