Quantum is key to securing blockchain, say Russian researchers
Although blockchain is traditionally seen as secure, it is vulnerable to attack from quantum computers. Now, a team of Russian researchers has developed a solution to the quantum-era blockchain challenge, using quantum key distribution (QKD). Writing in the journal Quantum Science and Technology, the researchers set out a quantum-safe blockchain platform that uses QKD to […]
