Ethlabs Proposes Post-Quantum and AI Security for Ethereum by 2027

Ethlabs has proposed that Ethereum achieve post-quantum and AI security by 2027 under an initiative called pqai27. According to Foresight News, the group outlined the proposal in a post on Ethereum Magicians, saying the goal would reinforce Ethereum’s role as a decentralized trust root and programmable store of value for ETH. Ethlabs said post-quantum security alone would not address risks from AI-accelerated cryptanalysis and software vulnerabilities. It recommended making pqai27 Ethereum’s highest priority, reassessing the Hegotá hard fork, deferring nonessential features such as quick slots, and prioritizing post-quantum consensus and account pathways. The group described pqai-scaled as an extended goal.
