Vitalik Buterin called for the swift deployment of quantum-resistant technology for Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) on Monday, emphasizing its importance for long-term cryptographic safety.

Is Efficiency Worth Sacrificing For Security?

Buterin took to X to voice his concerns about delaying quantum resistance in the name of efficiency.

“We should resist the trap of saying ‘let’s delay quantum-resistance until the last possible moment in the name of eking out more efficiencies for a while longer,’” the cryptocurrency mogul argued.

Buterin noted that while individual users can choose whether to adopt the new standard, the implementation must happen at the protocol level.

“Being able to…
