Quantum Proofing Ethereum Spec - HackMD

Quantum computers will break Ethereum and Bitcoins signing scheme by allowing anyone to reverse engineer a secret key from a public key. Luckily, addresses are safe; if we make public keys "quantum-secret" and don't reveal them either, then there is a path for plausible quantum resistance without many changes to the system.
