Quantum computers will be able to crack today’s main cryptographic algorithms employed by the whole internet, including banking applications, email providers, and social media platforms.
QANplatform launched the world’s first quantum-resistant blockchain testnet compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), enabling the development of quantum-resistant smart contracts.
The new testnet will enable developers to write smart contracts using any programming language, according to QANplatform’s announcement shared with Cointelegraph.
This marks the first EVM-compatible testnet with quantum-resistant cybersecurity, according to Johann Polecsak, co-founder and CTO of QANplatform, who told Cointelegraph:
