[Cardano Founder: Trade-offs Needed for Post-Quantum Cryptography in Cryptocurrency] According to a report by Jinse Finance, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has warned that while post-quantum cryptographic solutions have already been standardized by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in 2024, their computational costs and data size, without hardware acceleration support, will significantly reduce blockchain throughput, potentially causing a performance loss of about an order of magnitude. He pointed out that assessing whether quantum computing risks have reached a usable stage should rely more on DARPA's quantum benchmarking program, which aims to evaluate the feasibility of practical quantum computing by 2033.
