Ethereum Sets Quantum-Resistant Deadline: 62 Proposals Get Rated

The Ethereum Foundation has published ratings for 62 Hegotá proposals after collecting 397 assessments from about 60 protocol specialists across nine teams.

The Protocol Cluster wants the Layer 1 network to resist quantum attacks by December 2029. This commitment affects which proposals are recommended for Hegotá and how they assess other protocol work.

One article, called the Hegotá EIP Opinion Post and Tier List, evaluates all 62 Ethereum Improvement Proposals under consideration for the upgrade. The list records how members of the Protocol Cluster view each proposal while client developers, researchers, and the Ethereum community continue assessing which changes can be built and tested within Hegotá's development schedule.

Native account abstraction could support the quantum-security plan by allowing Ethereum accounts to use different methods for authorizing transactions. Privacy, scaling, and proof verification also remain part of the same development program.
