This article is dedicated to studying the resilience of cryptocurrency systems (CCS) under new threats associated with the development of quantum computing. A differential game model is introduced, allowing for the formalization of the interaction between CCS and quantum computers (QC), as well as the analysis of their mutual influence. The research methodology is based on the application of differential game theory to model the dynamics of resource allocation between the parties and to evaluate their strategies under conditions of uncertainty and competition. Various scenarios of confrontation between CCS and quantum computing were considered during the modeling process, which made it possible to identify key patterns and factors that significantly affect the effectiveness of cryptographic protection, as well as the computational capabilities of attackers utilizing QCs. Special attention is given to the analysis of different methods for protecting digital assets under potential quantum threats. The results of the study may serve as a foundation for developing new cryptographic security standards and adaptive protection strategies that will remain effective amid the rapid growth of quantum computing capabilities

This article presents a critical–propositional analysis of Leo Carlos Kerber’s Metrological Closure and Particle Spectrum in the Yin–Yang Model in confrontation with the Theory of Objectivity (TO), developed by Vidamor Cabannas and Denivaldo Silva. The study examines the Yin–Yang Model as a proposed physical “hardware theory” based on discrete processing, ticks and slips, metrological closure, memory, record, particle latching, and residual auditing. The analysis explores possible compatibilities and tensions between Kerber’s model and the modal axioms of the Theory of Objectivity, especially regarding the logical necessity of elements, the role of boundaries, the composition of physical entities, the status of informational record, and the substance transcendent to the quantum. Particular attention is given to Yang as a domain of memory and record, in comparison with the TO notion that the transcendent element consists of knowledge or information produced in atomic relations and equivalent to atomic radiations. The article argues that the Yin–Yang Model offers a fertile operational field for dialogue with TO, especially in its treatment of particles as latched modes, radiation as record, time as discrete updating, and physical constants as results of structural closure. At the same time, it identifies relevant tensions, particularly the need to derive the YY structural numbers and domains from modal necessity rather than treating them only as chassis specifications.

A broad class of theories, called "objective local theories," is defined, motivation for considering these theories is given, and experimental consequences of the class are investigated. An extension of previous analyses by Bell and by Clauser et al. shows that predictions of objective local theories and of quantum mechanics differ, and that an experimental test of the entire family of objective local theories can be performed. The experimental requirements are given. Objective local theories satisfying a plausible but experimentally untestable supplementary assumption are shown to be incompatible with existing experimental data.
