Summary
Algorand has announced a roadmap to make its layer-1 blockchain quantum-resilient by the end of 2027. The Algorand Foundation's technology chief Bruno Martins outlined plans to update the network's infrastructure to defend against the potential threat of quantum computers breaking current cryptographic systems. The project has been researching and preparing for this quantum threat for several years, joining other blockchains in proactively addressing future quantum computing risks.
