Zcash 开发者计划于 1 月引入抗量子签名
Zcash(ZEC)开发团队计划于 1 月引入抗量子签名技术,首批将覆盖持有约 70% 已发行 ZEC 的透明资金池,但目前尚未确定具体的网络激活日期。
关键要点
- Zakura 工程师的目标是在 1 月为 Zcash 支持基于哈希的签名,但尚未确认网络激活的具体时间。
- 第一阶段仅涵盖透明支付,该资金池持有已发行的 1698 万枚 ZEC 中的约 1196 万枚。
- 屏蔽支付(Shielded payments)需要单独的开发工作,而更广泛的抗量子项目目标定于 2027 年底完成。
Zcash 的量子升级计划
Zakura 的一名工程师 Roman Akhtariev 在工程博客中写道:“我们的团队计划让后量子签名操作码(opcodes)在 1 月落地 Zcash。”
这些操作码或指令将使网络能够验证基于哈希的签名。这是一种旨在抵御量子攻击的支付批准方法,其中 Winternitz 一次性签名被作为一种可选方案。与钱包目前使用的椭圆曲线密钥不同,这些签名基于不同的数学原理,因此针对当前密钥的任何突破都不会自动导致其失效。
Zakura 是用于运行 Zcash 网络的程序之一。虽然 1 月是其开发目标,但主网激活日期尚未公布。
The plan covers transparent payments, the public part of the network, which operates in a manner similar to Bitcoin (BTC) transfers, with addresses and amounts visible on the blockchain. According to ZecStats, the pool holds approximately 11.96 million of the 16.98 million ZECs in issue, accounting for approximately seven-tenths of all coins in circulation.
Zakura has also built a search tool based on private information retrieval that is experimentally integrated into the Vizor wallet, allowing users to query balances without exposing to the server which addresses belong to the same group.
Justin Drake's warning and market reaction
The above blog post follows a warning issued on Thursday by Ethereum researcher Justin Drake, who urged holders to prepare for so-called "bunker mode." Drake said that in the worst-case scenario, artificial intelligence may find a shortcut to achieve breakthroughs "in months rather than years" through mathematical algorithms that protect Bitcoin and Ethereum wallets.
As of now, there has been no actual attack demonstration against these wallet keys. Despite this, the market responded. ZEC closed at about $1,185 on Thursday, down about 11% from the previous week, before trading around $1,240 on Friday, CoinGecko data showed.
Zcash blocked payment roadmap
Blocking payments (hiding sender, recipient, and amount) requires a separate effort. Zcash's own anti-quantum recovery design warns that if attackers hold the recipient's address, they can keep encrypted payment records today and attempt to decrypt them after a mathematical breakthrough in the future.
The January goal was arrived at after months of quantum planning across the Zcash ecosystem. Josh Swihart, CEO of the Zcash Open Development Lab, said at a conference in Miami in May that the project aims to achieve a full quantum-resistant state within 12 to 18 months. A network upgrade in July introduced Ironwood notes that are resistant to quantum recovery, and Shielded Labs launched the Epoch project on October 1, with the goal of achieving production-ready quantum resilience by the end of 2027.
