Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Coinbase's head of cryptography Yehuda Lindell called Drake's warning that ECDSA could break within months "FUD," saying there is no evidence the hardness assumptions behind elliptic-curve cryptography have weakened. Dragonfly's Haseeb Qureshi called it "a very sober call," while Solana Foundation's Jacob Creech said Solana users do not need "bunker mode" because its Ed25519 setup could migrate to a quantum-resistant scheme through a hash-based proof.
