Founder, BOLTS Technologies
Weekly insights on quantum-resistant cryptography, post-quantum security, and the future of digital asset protection. Future-proofing Web3 infrastructure — one memo at a time.
Yoon Auh's analysis on the intersection of quantum computing, cryptography, and digital assets.
Watch and listen to Yoon Auh discuss quantum security and the future of digital assets.
Yoon Auh, CEO of BOLTS Technologies, Afsheen Afshar, Founder & CEO of Pilot Wave Holdings, and Jeremy Samuelson, EVP, Artificial Intelligence & Innovation at Integrated Quantum, join Jill Malandrino on TradeTalks to discuss building for quantum readiness and protecting present-day data-exposure risk.
Schwab Network:
Quantum Computing's Risk to Crypto & Finding Flexible Solutions
BOLTS Technologies CEO Yoon Auh explains that the world sees quantum computing as an "undeniable advantage" for tech that carries the risk of breaking the blockchain. He makes the case that the technology is bearish for crypto and that regulation needs to be put in place to prevent irreversible damage. One solution Yoon explains: "post-quantum cryptography." He talks about what it means for the blockchain and the ties it has for the overall digital landscape.
The David Daily Show:
Quantum Security and the Future of Blockchain
On this episode of The David Daily Show, David J. Goecke is joined by Yoon Auh, CEO and Founder of BOLTS Technologies and Founder of NUTS Technologies. Yoon has spent decades working across global trading, capital markets, cybersecurity, and frontier technology, including leadership roles at Magnetar Capital, Geode Capital Management, and Credit Suisse First Boston.
Paul Barron Network:
Quantum Threat vs Crypto
Quantum computing threatens cryptocurrency by potentially breaking the elliptic curve cryptography (ECDSA) used for signatures, allowing hackers to derive private keys from public keys and steal funds. While powerful enough machines may not arrive for 10–15 years, they pose risks to long-term Bitcoin storage, particularly old or reused addresses.

Quantum Threats to Blockchain with Yoon Auh Part 2 | DWeb Decoded
In Part 2 of our conversation with Yoon Auh, founder of Bolts Technologies, we dig into the practical, technical, and economic implications of post-quantum cryptography on blockchain systems.
From block size constraints to validator incentives, to per-transaction flexibility with QFlex, Yoon lays out how blockchain systems can (and must) evolve to prepare for a post-quantum future.

Quantum Threats to Blockchain with Yoon Auh | DWeb Decoded
How vulnerable is blockchain to quantum computing? In this episode of DWeb Decoded, Yoon Auh, CEO and founder of BOLTS Technologies, breaks down the cryptographic foundations of modern blockchains—and why they may not stand up to the coming wave of quantum computing.
We cover the history of encryption, the current post-quantum standards from NIST, and the inherent challenges of migrating decentralized systems to new cryptographic primitives. With a background in high-frequency trading and cybersecurity innovation, Auh brings a unique perspective to the quantum resilience conversation.
