Blockchain and quantum resistance

Details

In this meetup we will investigates the problems and challenges what quantum computing can cause with nowadays blockchain protocols, including but not limited to quantum attacks on cryptographical elements of a blockchain or the role of the post-quantum cryptography. We try to cover everything on a high level basis, without going deep into the math-heavy topics.

Agenda:

  1. Welcome to the Hyperledger Community (5 min)
  2. A non-mathematical introduction to recent directions of post-quantum cryptography (20 min)
    - Short introduction about the theories (math/non-math) behind the possible directions
    - 10 months of the NIST finalist, what happened with them?
    - Diffie-Hellman?
    - The real word (SSL? HTTPS? DNS? eBank? Crypto? Blockchain?)
    - Are we there yet? (Hardware, software, the said truth)
    Speaker:
    Andras Szabolcsi
    Blockchain Solution Architect
    BlockBen
  3. A high level technology-management framework for analysing quantum threats of a Blockchain protocol. (30 min)
    Speaker:
    Daniel Szego
    DLT Architect

4. Community Discussion
