@Solenhal @RantyArts That fat Chopper everyone glazes only lasted until the end of Arabasta. By Thriller bark he was already a big-headed marketable plush. Though I agree he should have kept his buff yeti form for combat at least, kungfu point sucks.

@_BloodKills @ShhjoshFax @RantyArts I agree. Franky looking like a fucking toy was the worst downgrade in history. Everyone else's design is a side-grade imo (even Ussop, he is meant to look goofy even if he is yoked now.)

27 million developers globally. Fewer than 25,000 actively building on-chain. That is not a skills problem. It is an industry design problem.

There is a bottleneck at the centre of one of the fastest-growing industries in the world and almost nobody talks about it seriously.

27 million active software developers globally.

Roughly ONLY 25,000 of them actively building on-chain.

That is not a skills gap. That is a design choice that became a wall and then became invisible because everyone got used to it.

When Ethereum launched, Solidity made sense. Purpose-specific language, controlled execution environment, reduced attack surface for a novel paradigm. A reasonable call in 2015 for a team figuring out something nobody had built before.

But then something happened that nobody planned for, the rest of the industry copied the constraint, not the reasoning behind it.

New chain launches. New language requirement. Learn ours first, then build.

So now a Java developer who has shipped production systems for a decade has to start from zero to put a smart contract on-chain. A Python developer who can build a trading algorithm in an afternoon cannot natively express that logic in a deployed contract without learning Solidity or hiring someone who knows it.

Think about what that actually means.

You are running an industry that says it wants to rebuild financial infrastructure, supply chains, identity systems, and the internet. And you have structured it so that only the developers who went out of their way to learn a niche language can participate.

The best engineers in the world are not in Web3. Most of them looked at the onboarding wall and went back to building something else.

This is the bottleneck nobody names. And it is entirely self-inflicted.

Excited to join this conversation. We'll talk through QANplatform's quantum-safe tech stack and why post-quantum cryptography is shifting from narrative to necessity in 2026. See you there!

[Harv @dsharv719]

@pete_rizzo_ Glad to see it- I've been saying for a long time it's better to just address it, rather than fight it.

While that takes shape, there is a major market for these types of upgrades, and it's a perfect time to layer on blockchain tech.
Take a look at what @QANplatform is doing.

[QANplatform @QANplatform]

We are thrilled to announce that the supercharged QAN TestNet is live!⚡️ This upgraded network now features the fully integrated versions of both the

🔵 QVM: QAN Virtual Machine enabling developers to write smart contracts in any programming language, and the
🔵 QAN XLINK: our cross-signer protocol that makes QANplatform quantum-safe

key components, recently audited by Hacken, marking a pivotal moment in our development roadmap.

“Elliptic curves are going to die,” Vitalik Buterin stated, underscoring that quantum computers might break elliptic curve cryptography, the foundation of Ethereum's and Bitcoin’s security, by 2028. Just a few years away.

But that vulnerability also sparks innovation.

QAN XLINK answers the call with its quantum-safe, Ethereum-compatible protocol, recently validated by Hacken's audit.

This shows how blockchain can safeguard itself against quantum risks while keeping interoperability intact.

The countdown to a quantum-secure future is on, the crypto world must evolve or risk becoming obsolete.

If you missed the news about QAN XLINK last week, read our blog on Medium!

An opportunity with Quantum readiness lives outside Crypto, and it is Massive

All the debate on when and how coins will upgrade to be protected from Quantum risk are good conversations because it is important chains start their transition plans.

It will be healthy for the space to overcome this concern.

But it isn't the only place to look for value.

There will be some challenges and negative impacts, and some coins may falter while others rise.

However, the common talking points are either top coins will "easily upgrade with no problems", or that we hardly should worry because we'll have "bigger problems elsewhere."

Let's assume that's true.

Then it makes a couple things crystal clear. All systems have to get this upgrade work done. And most systems are going to leverage solutions rather than start from scratch.

NIST has approved algorithms. So, businesses can take on the challenge of trying to just cutover to these and hope their staff can figure it out. But it's not simple work. And will be disruptive and risky.

Enabling smooth transitions is where the opportunity lies.

I had been following @QANplatform all these years seeing opportunity with multi-language smart contracts and business adoption. I was never quite sure if quantum advancements would take hold or create adoption opportunities for prepared projects.

Now the quantum risk narrative is gaining strength. It's everywhere.

The work Qanplatform has done to offer solutions outside of crypto creates utility for a completely new untapped market. They are powering Signquantum which is being implemented by Ueno bank. That's a gigantic first step into the space. It sets them up for both growth and high visibility. They've also built a use case with IBM

There will be other solutions, and of course not all systems have a need for recording on an immutable ledger. But a whole do want to add that layer of security, and that's a massive market for a small project.

[Crypto Antony @magnumincor]

Wow, finally, the quantum narrative is flashing more and more often. Because these are not fairy tales and fictions. Because this is a new reality. And the next round of technological development is likely to occur with the mass adoption and adaptation of quantum computers.

And it should be remembered: we always overestimate our forecasts for 10 years ahead, but we always underestimate the changes that occur in 2-3 years.
