The leaderboard is only useful if the underlying cryptography is stated plainly. These notes are the short version.
01
Why ECC fails under Shor
ECDSA, EdDSA, secp256k1, and Ed25519 all reduce to the elliptic-curve discrete log. A cryptographically relevant quantum computer does not need to “hash harder.”
02
Resource estimates and Q-Day
Google’s 2026 ECDLP estimates, Project Eleven demos, and why the remaining uncertainty is calendar, not category.
03
What “good” looks like
Hybrid migration, native post-quantum cryptography, key rotation, and why “we are researching it” is not a posture change.
