Gate News bot message, Allnodes has launched a bare-metal server service specifically designed for Solana validators and developers, providing high-performance unmanaged storage solutions. The system features AMD EPYC Turin CPU (24 to 64 cores), 256GB to 3072GB DDR5 ECC RAM, and NVMe Gen 5 SSD with read speeds up to 14500 MB/s. The server supports infrastructure such as Jito-Solana and advanced MEV strategies.

Gate News bot news, Strategy Executive Chairman Michael Saylor downplayed concerns about the impact of Quantum Computing on Bitcoin, calling it a marketing strategy to promote next-generation quantum tokens. "This is mainly a marketing tactic by those who want to sell you the next generation of quantum tokens," Saylor said in a recent interview on CNBC's "Squawk Box." According to quantum computing research company Project Eleven, 10 million Bitcoin Addresses have exposed their Public Keys, and if these machines become powerful enough to break Bitcoin's Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) Secret Keys, over 6 million Bitcoin Addresses could be at risk. However, Saylor stated that even if tech giants actually posed a threat with Quantum Computing, they would not disclose it, as doing so could jeopardize their business, and even that of the US government. "Google and Microsoft would not sell you a computer that breaks modern encryption, because that would destroy Google, Microsoft, the US government, and the banking system."

PANews, June 3 news, according to Cointelegraph, Malikie Innovations has recently sued Bitcoin mining companies Marathon Digital and Core Scientific, accusing them of infringing its patent rights by using Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) technology. The company acquired 32,000 "non-core" patents from Blackberry in 2023. The lawsuit claims that the defendant mining companies used the patented technology held by Malikie in their Bitcoin mining operations. Legal expert Aaron Brogan stated that such lawsuits typically do not target individual Bitcoin users, but may have a significant financial impact on the defendant mining companies, as they could face six years of royalty recovery if they lose. AMLBot's legal director Niko Demchuk believes that if the patent in question has expired or only covers Bitcoin EC.

Gate News bot message, the Google Quantum team has released its latest research findings, indicating that the quantum computing resources required to break the RSA encryption system have decreased by 20 times compared to previous estimates. This research involves the RSA encryption system, while the Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) used by Bitcoin has a similar mathematical structure to RSA. The quantum computing breakthrough in RSA encryption is directly related to the security of ECC.

Project Eleven, a quantum computing research organization, has launched the Q-Day Challenge, a global competition to reward teams for successfully cracking the elliptic curve encryption key ECC with a quantum computer, which is related to the security of the Bitcoin network. The Shore algorithm in the field of quantum computing may crack the encryption algorithm of the Bitcoin network, and schemes such as QRAMP and CGBS are proposed, but the underlying protocol changes need to be widely agreed by the community.

For the first time, Project Eleven held a "Q-Day Prize" to reward the first team to successfully crack an ECC key on a quantum computer using the Shore algorithm, and offered 1 Bitcoin as a reward. The company notes that quantum computers could expose cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin to security risks, so it hopes to translate the potential threat of quantum computers into real-world models with this award. Quantum computing helps decrypt cryptocurrency security.

ECC announced the activation of the NU6 network upgrade at block height 2726400 around November 23, 2024, deploying a new Zcash development fund and a lockbox, with a portion of the issuance earmarked for future decentralized grants funding, managed by a mechanism determined by the future community. As part of this upgrade, some teams are deploying or have already updated ZIP 207, 214, 236, 253, 1015, and 2001.
