William Herkelrath, former Chainlink and Curv executive, is appointed CEO of Algorand to lead its push into institutional finance and post-quantum security, with the blockchain already running post-quantum secure accounts in production.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Crypto & Web3.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Your blockchain project now needs to prepare for quantum security sooner as Algorand sets a new standard with live post-quantum accounts. If you serve institutional clients, quantum readiness is no longer optional but a market access requirement.
