Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin warned that AI-driven advances in mathematics might break lattice-based cryptography, a method used to quantum-proof blockchains, within the next two years. This poses a new risk to blockchain security, as AI could potentially break encryption faster than quantum computers. Buterin suggests increasing cryptographic safeguards and recommends keeping funds in addresses without exposed public keys to reduce vulnerability. The industry is urged to prepare for AI-related cryptographic threats alongside quantum risks, though no immediate drastic actions are advised.
