Ethereum proposes new deposit contract to prepare for quantum computing risks.

Ethereum developers have proposed a new deposit contract to reduce reliance on current BLS-based staking mechanisms and support future post-quantum cryptography upgrades. This change aims to protect the network against potential threats from advancing quantum computing by allowing more flexible security tools. The proposal is still under discussion and is part of Ethereum's broader plan to update its consensus layer. Meanwhile, ETH trades near $2,480 with strong institutional demand, including BlackRock's Ethereum ETF adding $90.9 million in ETH.
