Vitalik Warns: AI Could Accelerate the Weakening of Cryptographic Security

This time it isn’t about AI hype—it’s about the underlying security of cryptography.
Vitalik says that after AI accelerates mathematical research, the security of elliptic curve cryptography and some post-quantum cryptography schemes could be challenged sooner than expected.

But he also emphasizes: don’t panic, and don’t rush to migrate your wallet.
At present, there hasn’t been a real attack that cracks ECDSA. What’s truly needed is to prepare in advance, not to take blind action.

In one sentence:
The risks brought by AI may not be limited to code vulnerabilities—“mathematical security” itself could be redefined in the future.
