A Pantera Capital partner warns that traditional financial systems will face slow, fragmented transitions to post-quantum cryptography due to legacy infrastructure and third-party dependencies, creating security vulnerabilities. In contrast, public blockchains like Ethereum may adapt faster through coordinated network-wide upgrades, similar to Ethereum's 2022 Merge. The Ethereum Foundation has prioritized quantum-resistant cryptography research as governments and industry groups urge early action, despite quantum computers capable of breaking current encryption not yet being available.
