1. Introduction: Ethereum Foundation established a dedicated post-quantum group
Ethereum Foundation (EF) just officially established the Post-Quantum (PQ) group – a group specifically responsible for post-quantum cryptography. At the same time, EF clearly stated that the cybersecurity of the Ethereum network against the threat from quantum computers is a top strategic priority in the long-term strategy.
This announcement was made around January 23, 2026, by prominent researcher Justin Drake (@drakefjustin) through a post on X, marking the transition from theoretical research to practical implementation.
