Oct 17, 2026Twila Rosenbaum A hypothetical AI-driven break of elliptic curve cryptography has sparked calls for crypto users to enter ‘bunker mode’ and move assets to fresh addresses. Critics argue the plan is impractical, incomplete, and likely to create more risk than protection. Experts point to exposed extended public keys, wallet infrastructure, and blockchain consensus systems that a simple transfer would not fix. The debate highlights how unprepared much of the industry remains for a cryptographic emergency, even as some networks test post-quantum alternatives. View more
