量子攻击或以"不明原因入侵"形式首现，Tether 铸币密钥或成首要目标
据 Cointelegraph 报道，区块链初创公司 Quantus 创始人 Christopher Smith 警告称，量子计算破解现代加密技术的首个信号，可能并非高调盗取中本聪比特币，而是一系列无迹可查的钱包资产异常转移——攻击者无需入侵设备或交易所系统，仅凭链上暴露的公钥即可推算出私钥。Smith 指出，若攻击发生，"唯一的法证证据就是没有任何入侵痕迹"。 在攻击目标方面，Smith 认为加密领域最具价值的目标或为 Tether 铸币密钥，量子攻击者可凭此凭空增发 USDT 并迅速抛售套利。Blockchain Capital 安全研究员 Sean Cheetham 则认为，攻击者更可能优先针对交易所热钱包，以避免引发广泛警觉。 在时间线方面，Smith 给出 2028 年前实现量子破密的概率为"五五开"，Cheetham 认为 2030 年代初"几乎确定"会到来。Google 已于今年 3 月将后量子迁移时间表提前至 2029 年。
