Instanodes Launches Post-Quantum Account Engineering for Ethereum and Solana
Blockchain infrastructure provider Instanodes has announced the launch of post-quantum account engineering services specifically designed for Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM)-compatible networks and Solana. The new offering utilizes hash-based digital signatures to mitigate risks posed by future fault-tolerant quantum computers, which threaten current elliptic-curve cryptography methods used for transaction authorization. The service includes quantum-readiness assessments and custom cryptographic engineering to help exchanges, custodians, and protocols evaluate their security architectures. On Ethereum, the implementation leverages ERC-4337 smart-account logic, while on Solana, it utilizes custom program-level signature verification. These tools aim to provide a migration roadmap for businesses managing digital assets against emerging quantum computing threats.
