On July 13, NEAR Protocol launched its v2.13.0 mainnet upgrade, introducing a quantum-resistant signature scheme approved by NIST. This groundbreaking development allows users to switch to quantum-safe cryptography with a single transaction. Unlike Bitcoin and Ethereum, NEAR's architecture supports seamless key rotation without asset migration. As threats from quantum computing grow, NEAR sets a precedent, paving the way for safer blockchain transactions.
