Vitalik Buterin Says There's a 'Good Chance' AI Could Break Lattice Cryptography Within Two Years

Buterin Raises Alarm on AI Threat to Cryptography's Future

Vitalik Buterin warns that AI could undermine cryptography within two years, urging Ethereum users to take precautions. Here's why it matters.

Vitalik Buterin Warns AI Could Break Lattice Cryptography Faster Than Expected

TLDR: Buterin says AI-accelerated math poses a core new risk to ML-DSA, FHE, and lattice-based cryptography.  Ethereum’s lean roadmap uses hash-based signatures such as WOTS and SPHINCS- instead of lattices. He suggests multiplying key sizes by 10 to make public-key encryption plausibly long-term secure. Users are advised to keep funds in unused addresses, with caution [...]
