I remember seeing some talk about a new kind of cryptography that we're more likely to use in the future rather than the KZG commitment ceremony we already performed. I can't find the thread about this, does this sound familiar? Any links to read up more about it?

Vitalik talks about alternative commitment schemes here: https://notes.ethereum.org/@vbuterin/proto_danksharding_faq#Couldn%E2%80%99t-we-use-some-other-commitment-scheme-without-a-trusted-setup

It's still an active area of research, we know quantum computing can break KZG so we'll want to switch eventually

A doodler and computerer. I like permissive/permissionless open source, smart contracts, p2p systems, room-scale VR, and NixOS.

The quantum proof one would likely involve FRI (the polynomial commitment scheme used in STARKs), FRIDA is a potential candidate, though at this point I don't know how suitable it is for Ethereum's purposes:
