Will Quantum Computers Break Cryptocurrency? From Shor's Algorithm to Post-Quantum Financial Security
Starting with Shor's algorithm, this salon examines how quantum computing may affect public-key cryptography, financial transactions, digital signatures, and virtual assets—and why post-quantum readiness must begin early.
SPEAKER & VENUE

Meet the speaker and preview the setting for an evening of focused discussion and exchange.
The salon question
Will quantum computers really break cryptocurrency? Professor Chang Ching-Ray begins with Shor's algorithm and explains why sufficiently capable quantum computers could undermine widely used public-key systems—and why finance, digital signatures, identity, and virtual assets must prepare for post-quantum security.
