This #asknostr won’t be for everyone.
It’s targted to the super geeks out there!
In particular any #Cybersecurity #cypherpunk #Cryptography experts.

#asknostr
I recall reading research on Quantum Computing almost 20 years ago. And if I was reading it then, we know it was in development prior to that.
Recently I saw a brief documentary on IBM’s Quantum 2 computer (R&D Lab).
One of the things mentioned is it’s potential (not yet realized but expected by 2035) ability to decrypt in seconds due to the super position state of Qubits.
As such, this has a real conflict with #privacy and even potential impacts for #bitcoin #btc and other #proofofwork (for example $KAS #KAS #KASPA comes to mind with its algo prepped for Optical Computing… and perhaps Monero and another #pow )
But even #nostr can be impacted.
My question:
1. Is there any future proof, Quantum Computing resistant encryption out there or in development?
2. If in the #future Qubits can hold a super position long enough to decrypt, how might we combat that?
(I guess that’s the same question as Q1…but in my mind we have to re-envision the #math …the approach to #encryption once optical computing is mainstream and especially controlled by nation states which is what it is at this point as most “world leaders” view it as a strategic national #security imperative which is why they are heavily researching it)

My point being, I’m interested in this conversation and perhaps some of you experts in this field can point me to where that convo is occurring.
