Ethereum researcher warns AI could crack crypto keys in months, urges urgent asset migration.

Justin Drake of the Ethereum Foundation warns that AI advancements might break the cryptographic security of blockchains like Ethereum and Bitcoin within months, not years. This threat targets the ECDSA signature scheme that secures most crypto assets. Drake advises large holders and exchanges to move funds to new addresses with undisclosed public keys and adopt stronger cryptographic methods like hash-based multi-signatures. While this is a precautionary measure rather than a confirmed breach, it highlights the need for urgent preparation against emerging AI threats to blockchain security.

The Ethereum Foundation's warning about AI threats to blockchain security comes as BNB on Pluang trades at Rp13.767.391 with a 1-day change of -1.76%. Market activity shows 60% of orders are sell and 40% buy, indicating cautious sentiment among investors. These figures are current as of Oct 07, 2026 23:02 WIB.
