**March 25 (Tuesday) — The Ethereum Foundation released a new roadmap Tuesday outlining how its development team is prepping for quantum computing threats.** The Foundation’s quantum team projects a series of initial network upgrades will wrap by 2029, centered on four key hard forks. While quantum computing will eventually break the public-key cryptography securing ownership, authentication, and consensus across all digital systems, it’s not imminent. Foundation quantum researchers estimate cryptographically capable quantum computers are still 8 to 12 years out. Of the four hard forks: - The “I” fork will add quantum-secure public keys for network validators; - The “J” fork will cut gas costs for validating quantum-secure signatures; Both upgrades are under consideration for this year’s planned Hegota fork. - The “L” fork will compress network state into zero-knowledge proofs; - The “M” fork will shield Layer 2 networks from quantum threats. Researchers note Laye

On March 25, YZI Labs announced the launch of the Atlas Scout Program to empower university students to back Web3, AI, and biotech startups. Ella Zhang, leader of YZI Labs, noted: “Recent meetings with 16- to 18-year-old young entrepreneurs left a strong impression on me. In this AI-powered new era, the pace of learning and entrepreneurship is accelerating exponentially. We launched the Atlas Scout Program to empower the next generation of investors—enabling them not just to witness the future, but to identify, fund, and help shape it alongside us.” According to reports, the Atlas Scout Program is a student-run $1 million venture capital initiative. It will select 5 to 10 top university students to act as investors, backing founders in the Web3, AI, and biotech sectors. Atlas Scouts will receive a global travel budget, incentive-aligned rewards, and direct access to YZI Labs’ ecosystem of over 300 portfolio companies.
