Ripple is preparing the XRP Ledger for quantum computing threats before the industry reaches "Q-Day." According to CoinDesk, the urgency picked up after an Anthropic model last month reduced the work needed to break a leading post-quantum signature candidate by a factor of 67 million. That development adds pressure to blockchain networks that depend on cryptographic systems expected to face growing scrutiny as quantum capabilities improve. This week, Bitcoin and Ethereum each published their own migration plans, putting the issue squarely on the agenda for major crypto networks. The report frames Ripple's move as part of a wider effort across the sector to get ahead of a potential shift in cryptographic security requirements rather than waiting for the threat to become immediate.
