Tracking BitCoin "Q-Day".
Researcher cracks 15-bit elliptic curve key, aka an Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) Key using public quantum hardware and is awarded the βQ-Day Prize bounty" of 1 BTC.
BitCoin and Ethereum utilize ECC - the larger 256 bit key - specifically the secp256k1 curve, for securing wallets and transactions. https://decrypt.co/365444/bitcoin-q-day-draws-nearer-quantum-researcher-breaks-simplified-key #Bitcoin #Cryptography #Ethereum #Crypto #CryptoCurrencies #Encryption #Security #ECC #EllipticCurve #QDay #DigitalSignature #BlockChain #QuantumComputing #Quantum #BTC

VOA, short for "File Hierarchy for the Verification of OS Artifacts", is a way of providing and using verifiers for digital signatures in a stateless manner, for various cryptographic technologies:
