Research teams including the Ethereum Foundation use AI to optimize algorithms, reducing the resource threshold for quantum cracking of BTC and ETH by 50%

Odaily News: Researchers from institutions including the Ethereum Foundation, Theta Labs, and StarkWare have jointly published a paper, using AI coding agents to deeply optimize the core operations of Shor's algorithm. The computing resources required for a potential quantum attack on Bitcoin and Ethereum (secp256k1 cryptographic system) have been reduced by more than 50% compared to Google's benchmark in March of this year. The number of logical qubits required for the circuit has been compressed to 1,151, and later versions have even been reduced to 813. Although current quantum hardware still cannot directly break public chains, the research shows that pure algorithmic optimization is significantly narrowing the time window for the quantum threat. The researchers emphasize that quantum-resistant upgrades take a long time and cannot be applied retroactively, and the industry needs to prepare defenses in advance. (Coindesk)

Former Hack VC partner Hsin-Ju found dead in California at age 37
Odaily News: Crypto industry figure Jordy posted on X platform that former Hack VC partner Hsin-Ju Chuang has been found dead, and expressed condolences. According to a screenshot of a report shared by Jordy, 37-year-old Hsin-Ju Chuang resided in North Las Vegas and was found dead last month near a remote exit off Interstate 15 in the Mojave Desert. Investigators have not yet determined the cause of death.Hsin-Ju previously claimed that she was required to continue working during a medical emergency and was threatened with being blacklisted from the industry if she left before an event was completed. She rejected Hack VC's settlement offer and had planned to publicly release evidence related to her tenure on August 26. Hack VC stated that it has noticed the relevant content, is concerned about Hsin-Ju's health condition, but said that its understanding of the events differs significantly from what Hsin-Ju published, and that it would not publicly discuss details out of privacy considerations.
