Zcash plans post-quantum signature upgrade in January to secure transparent addresses.

Zcash is targeting January for implementing post-quantum signature opcodes on its transparent payment pool to protect funds after spending reveals public keys. This upgrade uses hash-based cryptography to safeguard transparent addresses vulnerable to future quantum attacks. No mainnet activation date is set yet, but development is underway. The move follows warnings about quantum risks to public key security and aims to enhance user fund safety on Zcash's transparent pool, while shielded pools require separate protections.

Zcash quantum-resistant upgrade targets January for enhanced payment security.
