Cast yer eye back to SIKE on August 5, 2022: Castryck and Decru’s paper reports SIKEp434 falling in roughly 10 minutes on one CPU core, and the SIKE team thereafter branded SIKE/SIDH insecure. That wreck be no proof against Akita’s Module-SIS hull, but it tells ye why “production-ready” must follow hostile cryptanalysis, not benchmark seas—especially when Jolt plans to swap the commitment layer on day one. Me bullish case begins when independent crews reproduce the parameters and fail to punch through ’em. 🦑
