Over the past months, developer interest in CKB has increased significantly, with over 100 new builders across all Catalyst programmes, plus a record number of hackathon participants.
We've seen builders experimenting with ZK, DID, DeFi primitives, Fiber tooling, privacy mixers, and much more. The common feedback is that CKB's adaptability sets it apart in this industry.

Quantum computing and blockchain: the threat moved closer this year
The quantum risk to crypto has always been filed under "later." A Google Quantum AI paper from March 30 narrowed what "later" means.
→ What the paper found
Breaking secp256k1, the curve that locks Bitcoin and Ethereum wallets, takes under 1,200 logical qubits. On real hardware, that works out to under 500,000 physical qubits. About 20x less than the old estimate of ~9 million.
The paper came from Google, the Ethereum Foundation, and Stanford. They proved the number without releasing the actual attack.
Still, this is a calculation, not a real machine. The best computers today run a few thousand qubits at most. The gap is huge. What shrank is the target, not the hardware.
→ Where the timeline actually sits
The vendor roadmaps look closer than they are. IonQ targets 1,600 logical qubits by 2028. IBM around 2,000 by 2033.
But qubit count isn't the same threshold as running a 90M-gate circuit at low enough error. Justin Drake, one of the co-authors, puts it at roughly
10% odds a quantum computer recovers a secp256k1 key by 2032.
Early 2030s with wide error bars is the honest read. Not a five-year countdown.
→ What's actually exposed
Anything with its public key already on-chain (P2PK outputs, reused addresses) is what a Shor's attack needs. That runs to several million BTC, a large share of it Satoshi-era and unmovable.
The nearer concern is harvest-now-decrypt-later. Exposed data gets archived today and decrypted once the hardware arrives, so the collection doesn't wait for the CRQC to exist.
→ Who's already moving
• Circle published a post-quantum roadmap, with PQ signatures planned at Arc mainnet
• Nervos CKB built for cryptographic agility, swapping signature schemes without a hard fork
• NIST has standardized the algorithms most migrations will lean on (Dilithium, Kyber, SPHINCS+)
The read
The "9 minutes to crack Bitcoin" headlines got ahead of the evidence. But the estimates only move one direction, and the coins most at risk are the ones no one can migrate.
How a chain handles this comes down to whether key migration is live work or a someday problem.
Crypto users can track price, TVL, fees, volume, and liquidity.
They still cannot easily see whether the projects they use have a credible plan against quantum threats.
Tectonic Labs is launching Quantum Tracker, a public quantum-readiness index for Web3.
Here's a fun little exercise for crypto bros:
Open the https://t.co/aADQaae9mz website by the legends @tectonicxyz
Select "Blockchains" in the sidebar.
Sort by "Tier."
Notice who sits at the top with the most green check marks :)
Cheers 🍻
SAD DAY FOR ETHEREUM HOLDERS.
$ETH is no longer the largest stablecoin in crypto.
Tether just flipped ETH to become the biggest stablecoin by market cap.
