随着量子计算研究持续推进,加密行业开始更认真地讨论一项长期问题:在足够强大的量子计算机出现前,如何把现有数字资产体系迁移到新的加密方案上。业内将这一过程称为“大规模量子迁移”。

超过 2 万亿美元资产受影响

目前,大量数字资产仍依赖椭圆曲线加密来证明所有权和签署交易。这套体系在传统计算环境下长期被认为足够安全,因为破解私钥所需计算量极高。

Quantus 联合创始人兼首席执行官 Christopher Smith 表示,超过 2 万亿美元数字资产由这类加密方式保护,规模接近整个加密市场总市值。Google 研究人员此前也提出,攻击这类加密所需的计算资源,可能低于过去估计。

钱包和管理密钥更受关注

Smith 认为,大型比特币钱包可能成为明显目标。他举例称,Binance 的比特币冷钱包持有规模超过 100 亿美元。相比之下,USDT 的管理密钥被视为更敏感的环节,因为它关系到稳定币发行控制。

他表示,一旦这类密钥被攻破,冲击可能不只停留在单一资产,还可能波及依赖稳定币流动性的 DeFi 协议。不过 Coinbase 对 Fortune 表示,不能把整个加密生态视为同等脆弱,真正更需要关注的是钱包层面的暴露风险。

迁移难点在行业协同

Google 曾提出,到 2029 年前后,加密系统应逐步迁离易受量子攻击的加密方案。美国国家标准与技术研究院也已推动后量子密码标准化,给出可替代算法。

Coinbase 认为,把抗量子签名加入区块链本身是可解决的工程问题,更难的是迁移如何落地,尤其是那些没有及时迁移的资产怎么办。其独立量子顾问委员会近期已发布报告,讨论遗留地址和被遗弃资产的处理问题。

多家机构已开始准备

这类升级不同于中心化服务更换加密方式。即便开发者完成协议升级,如果交易所不支持,用户可能无法转移资产;如果钱包没有跟进,旧地址上的风险仍会保留。

Coinbase 目前是比特币安全联盟的创始成员之一。该联盟成员包括 BlackRock、Fidelity Digital Assets、Block、Blockstream 和 Strategy。Coinbase 还表示,正为量子安全相关开发提供资金和工程支持,涉及 BIP-360 等提案及后量子迁移路径研究。

UK GDP grew by 0.4% in the second quarter: The economy has not stalled, but its "surface resilience" still needs to be examined more closely
Preliminary estimates released by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) on August 13 show that the UK's real gross domestic product (GDP) grew by 0.4% quarter-on-quarter in the second quarter of 2026, lower than the 0.6% growth in the first quarter, but it still maintained expansion. Service sector output grew by 0.5%, which was the main source of quarterly growth; the construction industry grew by 0.3%, while the production sector as a whole remained roughly unchanged. Since this is the first version of the quarterly estimates, there may be revisions later on after more business surveys and administrative data are taken into account.

Anthropic Reported to be in talks to acquire Decart: Behind the $6 billion deal is a competition for "computing power efficiency" among AI companies
Anthropic is in talks to acquire artificial intelligence startup Decart, with the reported transaction amount being around $6 billion. The news was initially disclosed by Bloomberg, and Axios followed up with a report on August 13th. The most important point to note here is that both parties are still in the negotiation phase; the transaction has not been completed, and the negotiations may also end. The $6 billion figure refers to the potential size of the deal as mentioned in the reports, not the actual acquisition price that has been paid, nor should it be considered the final valuation of Decart.

The US plans to give AI partners a "single-choice" question: Pax Silica is transitioning from a cooperation framework to a technical camp
According to a report by Reuters on August 15, the U.S. government is preparing to make clearer demands to dozens of countries: if a country joins the competitive artificial intelligence cooperation framework led by China, it may be excluded from the U.S.-led Pax Silica alliance. The report is based on statements by a U.S. official and an internal draft seen by Reuters, so the current accurate description is "the U.S. is preparing" rather than "new rules have already taken effect." Whether the draft will be implemented as written, which countries will be officially notified, and how the exit or exemption mechanisms will be designed remain to be seen until public documents are released.
