Abstract: Quantum computing has become a threat to classical cryptography, and PQC hash-based signature schemes offer a promising post-quantum alternative. This paper analyses XMSS, LMSS, SHAKE-256 ...
Algorand’s state proofs utilize the Falcon signature scheme to provide post-quantum secure attestations of the blockchain state. Privacy coins like Zcash will be prime targets for quantum computers ...
Abstract: To address engineering challenges such as multi-constraint conflicts, nonlinear coupling, and high material costs, this paper proposes a Multi-Strategy Enhanced Slime Mould Algorithm (MESMA) ...
