Ethereum aims to complete its post-quantum and post-AI upgrade by December 2028, a year earlier than planned.

Ethereum Foundation researcher Justin Drake announced at Devcon 8 that the network hopes to finish its post-quantum and post-AI security upgrade by December 2028, moving up the previous target of December 2029. This upgrade addresses risks posed by quantum computers and advances in AI that could compromise current cryptographic signatures securing Ethereum accounts and validators. The transition involves three major network upgrades within two years, starting with a milestone expected in early 2027. While the 2028 date is an optimistic goal rather than a firm deadline, it reflects the foundation's commitment to enhancing Ethereum's security against future technological threats. ETH holders will need to migrate funds to quantum-resistant accounts during this process.

Ethereum's accelerated plan for a post-quantum upgrade highlights the network's focus on future-proofing its security. On Pluang, ETH trades at Rp41.611.279 with a 2.28% gain over the past day as of November 4, 2026, 13:21 WIB. The market cap stands at Rp5.066,97 trillion, with a 24-hour trading volume of Rp171,55 trillion, reflecting active investor interest ahead of the anticipated network changes.
