Crypto Industry Split Over Justin Drake’s AI Cryptography Warning

The split reflects a broader uncertainty in crypto over how to weigh long-horizon, hard-to-quantify risks against nearer-term priorities. Drake's warning lands differently depending on whether a project's security model treats cryptographic assumptions as fixed or as something that must evolve. For RWA and infrastructure builders, the relevant question is whether AI-driven threats to cryptography become a design constraint or remain a research concern. Whether the industry moves from debate to concrete preparation is the open question.
