NIST wants to ban ECDSA in 2035. It is tight.

HTTPS, messengers, cryptocurrencies and everyone else will need to move to new algorithms. Not all functionality is currently feasible in pq setting.

Here’s an excerpt from noble-post-quantum on speed & key size in JS implementations.

Moving away from ECDSA by 2035 may be challenging for many industries, as they will need to transition to new algorithms for security. Some functionality may not be possible in pq setting. Speed and key size are important considerations for JS implementations
