What happened
Ripple announced a four‑phase roadmap aimed at making the XRP Ledger quantum‑resistant by 2028, targeting protection against future quantum‑computing threats.
Confirmed
Global impact / market context
If the ledger becomes quantum‑resistant, it could reduce the risk that future quantum computers could break XRP’s cryptographic security, supporting investor confidence.
Proposed
Ripple is developing technology to protect its XRP Ledger from future quantum‑computing attacks, a move that could strengthen confidence in the digital asset’s long‑term security.
Confirmed
