⚔️#Cardano $ADA founder #CharlesHoskinson challenged #VitalikButerin ’s warning that #AI could threaten lattice-based, post-quantum cryptography.

🔹 Buterin’s concern: AI-driven mathematical breakthroughs could weaken lattice schemes such as ML-DSA and fully homomorphic encryption (FHE), potentially within two years.

🔹 Hoskinson’s response: He says no credible new attack has been demonstrated against lattice cryptography. Existing security parameters already account for decades of known attack improvements.

🔹 Key disagreement: Buterin favors stronger consideration of hash-based signatures, while Hoskinson argues hashes also have limitations and cannot replace every form of public-key cryptography.

🔹 Bigger picture: NIST standardized ML-KEM and ML-DSA in 2024 after years of public review. Hoskinson argues that major changes to key sizes or algorithms should be backed by concrete attack evidence and rigorous cost analysis. $ETH
