AI 数学突破引发 Ethereum 研究者争论钱包安全多久可能崩塌

AI math breakthroughs have Ethereum researchers debating how fast wallet security could collapse

AI 导读

两位 Ethereum 研究者警告,AI 辅助的数学进展最坏情况下可能在数月内打破加密钱包使用的签名体系。Justin Drake 在 X 上呼吁行业准备"bunker mode",将资金转入从未签署过交易的地址,因为签名会暴露公钥;Vitalik Buterin 认同但提醒迁移失误风险,长期主张尽量只依赖哈希函数。目前 ECDSA 签名方案尚未被实际攻破。

Two leading Ethereum researchers warn that AI-assisted math could, in the worst case, break the signature system used by crypto wallets within months. Justin Drake called on the blockchain industry in a post on X to prepare a "bunker mode."

He recommends moving funds to addresses that have never signed a transaction. Signing reveals the public key, which an attacker could theoretically use to derive the private key and steal the funds. As long as only the public key's hash is visible, the funds remain protected because the key cannot be recovered from that hash.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin agreed in a reply on X but warned against acting too fast. He said he's lost more money to botched migrations than to hacks. Long-term, Buterin argues for an architecture that relies as much as possible on hash functions alone, since even lattice-based schemes, often considered quantum-safe, could be weakened by advances in AI.

So far, no one has actually broken the current ECDSA signature scheme in practice.
