Hybrid Constructions: The Post-Quantum Safety Blanket

The funny thing about safety blankets is they can double as stage curtains for security theater. Art: CMYKat "When will a cryptography relevant quantum computer exist?" is a question many technologists are pondering as they stare into crystal balls or entrails. Two people I admire recently made a public long bet about that question, with a $5000 donation to charity as stakes.

Even more so if you have to send over the public key as well. But the problems where you have that extreme size cons...

Like messing with only one signature? Further EdDSA has different security properties than ML-DSA or SLH-DSA regarding de...
