Single-signature, Logic Signature, Application and multisignature accounts need different migrations, with Falcon, salting, typing and gradual opt-in adoption central before native post-quantum accounts eventually become first-class protocol primitives across the network. Algorand outlined a next-generation ledger security strategy to prepare its account model for the quantum computing era. The work focuses on protecting the live ledger, not just historical blocks, by…
