SHRINCS BIP published: Quantum-secure Bitcoin comes with a catch

Blockstream co-founder and CEO Adam Back has a reputation as a quantum computer skeptic who believes the technology is so immature the threat wont materialize for decades.　　Which makes it all the more fascinating that his company is one of the leaders in researching practical solutions to the issue. Back told Cointelegraph earlier this year “the safe thing” is to prepare for the threat well in advance.　　Blockstream has already proven its experimental post-quantum signature scheme called SHRINCS works in production on its Liquid sidechain and a Bitcoin Improvement Proposal for SHRINCS was published earlier today.　　Blockstream Research‘s Jonas Nick called it “the first concrete proposal for a post-quantum signature scheme designed specifically for Bitcoin.” But he added that SHRINCS is not intended to be Bitcoin’s ‘final’ signature scheme, and it is not optimal along every axis.　　“I do think it is a very good trade-off among the options we have now,” he said.Source: Jonas Nick　　While the timeline is hotly debated, scientists agree that sufficiently advanced quantum computers will be able to reverse engineer private keys from public keys, thereby undermining Bitcoin‘s security and enabling the theft of billions. That’s why the race is on to develop ways to upgrade Bitcoin to make it

Crude oil prices decline amid signs of diplomatic progress in the Middle East.　　Iran and Oman reached an agreement over each country‘s share of the Strait of Hormuz’s waters and related revenues, although Tehran cautioned that reopening the crucial waterway would require more than an agreement with Oman.　　Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump said 10 million barrels of oil had passed through Hormuz on Tuesday, while reiterating claims that mines in the waterway had been cleared.　　Discover more　　Compare Exchange Rates　　Finance　　Take Economics Courses　　Oil prices have also come under pressure this week after fresh US economic sanctions on Iran proved less aggressive than markets had feared, with the White House so far sparing Irans trading partners from tougher measures.　　Oil prices pared early losses after official data showed US crude inventories rose by less than expected last week. According to the Energy Information Administration (EIA), crude inventories increased by 95,000 barrels to 428.9 million barrels for the week ended August 21.

Euro holds gains above 1.1650 on hawkish ECB bias

The EUR/USD pair edges higher to around 1.1655 during the early Asian session on Thursday. A hawkish stance of the European Central Bank (ECB) provides some support to the Euro (EUR) against the US Dollar (USD). Traders will closely monitor the Jackson Hole Symposium event later on Friday for fresh impetus.　　The ECB is anticipated to raise the key interest rates in September, after tightening in June to contain price pressures amid ongoing geopolitical tensions. Markets are now pricing in nearly a 25% odds of the ECB deposit rate reaching 3.0% by March 2027 and about a 60% chance by September, according to Reuters.　　ECB Executive Board member Isabel Schnabel said on Wednesday that borrowing costs will need to rise further as the lengthy conflict in the Middle East and surprisingly strong euro-zone economy pose upside risks to inflation.　　Across the pond, the Feds preferred inflation gauge came in line with expectations, with the core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index inflation held steady at 3.3% YoY in July, the US Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) showed on Wednesday.　　Additionally, the headline PCE Price Index remained unchanged at 3.7% YoY in July, above the consensus of 3.6%.
