Ethereum Researcher Warns AI Could Break Crypto Signatures Before Quantum

Drake's framing shifts the horizon of signature risk from quantum hardware to AI-driven cryptanalysis, a distinction that matters because it changes the assumed timeline and the defensive playbook. The practical implication is narrow but pointed: address reuse, not key strength alone, becomes the exposure. Whether the broader holder base treats migration to fresh addresses as routine hygiene or as a signal of urgency is the open question, and how signature schemes evolve in response is worth watching.
