摘要

The exponential advancements in quantum computation technology lead to serious challenges for blockchain security protection when used against fundamental system cryptography like public-key algorithms and hash function operations. The speed of blockchain system attacks increases by using algorithms such as Shor’s in combination with Grover’s. Scientific experts have started developing quantum-safe solutions intended to combat the identified threats. Researchers at the current work develop quantum key distribution (QKD) for authentication security while creating post-quantum cryptographic algorithms. The adoption of these security measures requires larger key systems as well as more demanding computational power. The integration of quantum properties with blockchain technology aims to establish such benefits as better blockchain resilience while improving transaction speed as well as enabling quantum synchronization capabilities alongside new consensus methods. The digital encryption provided by blockchain depends heavily on computational complexity yet becomes vulnerable to quantum computer powers. The bonding of quantum key distribution (QKD) with blockchain technology created quantum-secured blockchain which reinforced security measures facing quantum threats. This section introduces multiple potential security threats on quantum networks followed by an explanation of how quantum-secured blockchain assists in mitigating these vulnerabilities. This text provides a summary of blockchain, and its vulnerabilities combined with QKD technology upgrades.
