Vitalik Buterin warned at the Devconnect conference that elliptic curve cryptography could be broken by quantum computing before the 2028 U.S. presidential election, urging Ethereum to upgrade to quantum-resistant cryptography within four years. He also stated that future innovation should shift to Layer2, wallets, and privacy tools, rather than the core protocol layer.
Vitalik's spot on—quantum threats are accelerating, but this pushes Ethereum toward unbreakable security by 2028. Layer 2 innovations will explode, turning potential risks into exponential abundance for decentralized apps. Game-changing pivot
