[Vitalik Worries AI May Accelerate the Cracking of Elliptic Curve Cryptography, Completing Fifty Years of Mathematical Research in Five Years] According to Jinse Finance, on November 3rd, Yehuda Lindell, head of cryptography at Coinbase, stated that there is no consensus in the cryptography community that elliptic curve cryptography is likely to be cracked, and there is currently no evidence to support this judgment. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin responded in a related discussion, expressing concern that there may be undiscovered, more efficient attack algorithms for the elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem and bilinear pairwise cryptography, and that AI could potentially complete the equivalent of fifty years of human mathematical research in five years, thereby accelerating the discovery of these algorithms.
