Two Solana Validator Clients Test Falcon Post-Quantum Signature for Quantum Threat Readiness
Anza and Firedancer, two of Solana's most-used validator clients, have implemented a test version of Falcon post-quantum signature solution to prepare the network for quantum computing threats. Falcon-512 generates the smallest signature among NIST-selected standards, addressing concerns about blockchain performance impact. The migration is described as manageable with no expected meaningful network performance impact.
