npub14vgamf2zucjlrxrp9tuudutklyt9ny8at3g5t6d4z7zs22g7gjqsujasrr (npub14vg…asrr) Only 50 bits though, whereas RSA keys used for SSH are often 4096 bits - I don't know about other protocols where RSA is used, but I'd guess they're roughly comparable? So it's a significant step forward, for sure, but going by the article, it sounds like we've got some time before they scale up to breaking "real-world" encryption.
