XRP Ledger Introduces Quantum-Proof Security Upgrade
The XRP Ledger Foundation has proposed a major upgrade to introduce quantum-resistant accounts to users. This feature will allow users to add a NIST-approved ML-DSA-44 signing key to their accounts and disable existing keys, offering protection against potential quantum attacks without incurring additional transaction fees. The upgrade is scheduled for a migration study in the first half of 2027, aiming to ensure a smooth transition for users.
