XRP Ledger adds quantum-resistant accounts to its 2027 roadmap

The plan involves studying ML-DSA-44 and a possible transition in 2027–2028

№ 1747Published 1 min read

XRP Ledger Foundation is considering accounts designed to protect against potential threats from future quantum computers. Its 2027–2028 roadmap mentions a possible migration path and research into ML-DSA-44.

NewsBTC reports that this is currently a research direction, not an active network upgrade. The plan could still change following engineering work and discussions with the community.

Developing the transition will require consideration of compatibility, signature verification costs, support for legacy accounts, and wallet functionality.
