Question 1

Who published the warning about Europe's financial dependencies?

Accepted Answer

The Joint Committee of the European Supervisory Authorities, which links the European Banking Authority, EIOPA and ESMA, issued the autumn 2026 risk update and presented its findings to the EU's Economic and Financial Committee on 10 September 2026.

Question 2

Why are regulators worried about quantum computing and crypto?

Accepted Answer

A powerful enough quantum computer could eventually derive a private key from an exposed public key and authorize transactions, and Google Quantum AI researchers estimated in March that such an attack might need about 20 times fewer qubits than earlier thought, though no capable machine exists yet.

Question 3

What are crypto developers doing about the quantum threat?

Accepted Answer

Bitcoin developer Jameson Lopp and five co-developers proposed in February to phase out the network's current signatures and restrict spending of unmigrated funds, while the Ethereum Foundation aims to make Ethereum quantum-resistant across its layers by December 2029.
