Quantum Computing: The $4.1B Threat to Crypto
With quantum computers projected to break current encryption by 2025 (IBM Research), blockchain networks face existential risks. HIBT’s quantum-resistant ledger offers a proactive solution, especially for Vietnam’s booming crypto market where user growth hit 89% YoY (Chainalysis 2025).
How Quantum Attacks Work
Like a master key opening every safe in a bank, Shor’s algorithm could crack:
- Bitcoin’s ECDSA signatures in minutes
- Ethereum’s keccak-256 hashing
- Traditional VPN tunnels
HIBT’s 3-Layer Quantum Shield
Developed by former NSA cryptographers, this system combines:
| Layer | Protection | Adoption Rate |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Lattice-based | Resists Shor’s algorithm | 42% of new chains |
| 2. Hash-based | One-time signatures | Vietnam’s top choice |
| 3. Code-based | Error-correcting codes | Military-grade |
2025’s Most Promising Altcoins (Quantum-Ready)
Here’s the catch: Only 17% of top 100 coins meet tiêu chuẩn an ninh blockchain (blockchain security standards) for quantum resistance. Our audit found:
- HIBT (93/100 security score)
- QANplatform (88/100)
- Algorand (85/100)
How to Audit Smart Contracts for Quantum Risks
Follow this checklist from HIBT’s developer portal:
- Check for SHA-256 dependencies
- Verify post-quantum signature schemes
- Test with cryptoliveupdate.com”>cryptoliveupdate.
