They also break catastrophically if a one-time key is used twice. Here&#x27;s how ordinary operations cause that, and how to prevent it.</description><author>hello@winternitz.tech (Kyeson Blake Utley)</author><pubDate>Sat, 17 Oct 2026 11:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item><item><title>What Q-Day means for crypto custody</title><link>https://winternitz.tech/notes/q-day-and-crypto-custody/</link><guid>https://winternitz.tech/notes/q-day-and-crypto-custody/</guid><description>Bitcoin and Ethereum rely on elliptic-curve signatures that a large quantum computer could break. Which coins are exposed first, why address reuse matters, and what custodians can do now.</description><author>hello@winternitz.tech (Kyeson Blake Utley)</author><pubDate>Sat, 17 Oct 2026 10:00:00 +0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
