Quantum Computation: New Challenge to CKB’s Security?

Rapid progress in quantum computing has partially cracked RSA encryption algorithm. See their paper.

As a response, the CKB team has developed the CKB Quantum Resistant Lock Script based on SPHINCS+ to resist quantum attacks.
This article introduces the team’s work, including the design, optimization, deployment of on-chain scripts, and the conversion with the lock script.
Give it a read, and feel free to drop your thoughts.
