XRPL flips to quantum-safe signatures; 2,420-byte proofs replace elliptic curves

The XRP Ledger (XRPL) is ending the year with major technological developments after a year that saw it gain significant adoption and milestones. On Dec. 24, Denis Angell, a lead software engineer at XRPL Labs, announced the integration of “post-quantum” cryptography and native smart contracts into AlphaNet, the project’s public developer network.
