Solana will collaborate with Project Eleven to build quantum-resistant signatures.

PANews reported on December 17th that, according to Cryptopolitan, Solana has partnered with quantum computing research company Project Eleven. Project Eleven will conduct a comprehensive assessment of Solana's quantum resistance capabilities and create quantum-resistant digital signatures on the Solana testnet. Project Eleven has studied the risks to Solana's core infrastructure, including wallets, validators, and other cryptographic protection measures. The testnet will also examine the feasibility of implementing end-to-end quantum-resistant transactions on Solana.

Matt Sorg, VP of Technology at the Solana Foundation, stated, "Our responsibility is to ensure that Solana remains secure not only now, but for decades to come." While the quantum threat is currently only theoretical, and blockchain may not face a real threat for over a decade, quantum research is expanding. Nevertheless, Project Eleven has begun assessing migration paths, standards, and adoption.
