We stand at the dawn of a new era

Millions of TPS. Quantum adversaries. How does Ethereum marry extreme performance with uncompromising security and decentralization?

TLDR

Next-generation cryptography is central to winning both offense and defense.

Disclaimer: This is a Drake take™ aimed at a broad audience. A technical deep dive into hash-based post-quantum signatures and SNARKS will follow. A healthy diversity of views across Protocol, the EF, and the broader Ethereum community is expected and welcome. It strengthens us.

Ethereum is special. 100% uptime since genesis. Unrivaled client diversity. 130B USD in economic security (35.7M ETH staked x 3.7K USD)—maybe soon 1T USD.
