Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, has warned that the quantum-resistant encryption scheme itself will be standardized by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in 2024, but in the absence of hardware acceleration support, its computational cost and data size will significantly reduce blockchain throughput, potentially causing a performance loss of about an order of magnitude.
He pointed out that to determine whether the risk of quantum computing has entered the usable stage, more reference should be made to DARPA's Quantum Benchmarking Program, which plans to evaluate the feasibility of practical quantum computing by 2033.
