ETHEREUM TARGETS QUANTUM-SAFE L1 BY 2029
Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter
The Ethereum Foundation published a tier list for the upcoming Hegotá upgrade, naming two "must-ship" proposals. They include FOCIL (EIP-7805), which strengthens censorship resistance by letting a validator committee force-include valid transactions, and Frame Transactions (EIP-8141), which makes account abstraction native by splitting transactions into programmable "frames". The Foundation set December 2029 as a firm target for full quantum resistance across execution, consensus, and data layers, treating that deadline as non-negotiable until it is reassessed in January, and is explicitly planning for the possibility of "Q-day" (when quantum computers could break current cryptography) arriving as early as 2030.
