Spark admin keys & Quantum Risk
Verdict
Spark admin keys are not quantum-proof. Sky-aligned modules and pause powers remain classical high-value surfaces.
Overview
Spark connects lending/savings products to Sky ecosystem controls. Privileged roles deserve the same inventory as Aave-class guardians.
Cryptographic profile
- Signatures: Host-chain account signatures for role holders (typically classical ECDSA/Ed25519), Multisig/module keys as deployed
- Hash: Host-chain dependent
- Public-key exposure: Spark module admins, Sky executives, pause roles
- Hosts/context: Sky/Maker-aligned Spark deployments
What breaks
- Compromise of admin keys related keys for Spark
- Equating role separation or multisig with post-quantum algorithms
- Untracked multi-chain deployments of the same protocol
Mitigations
- Document privileged addresses from official docs per chain
- Hardware/MPC for guardians, admins, and large governors
- Return to /is-quantum-proof/spark for protocol context
- Use category hubs: lending, dex, perps, stablecoins
