While at Consensus Miami last week, @craig_clement from the QRL team hit the streets to ask people a simple question...
Have you heard of quantum computing?
Independent review of post-quantum cryptographic library from security partner, @halbornsecurity, finds no vulnerabilities; all 13 findings rated Informational
theqrl.org/press/halborn-…
More than $2 trillion in digital assets currently rely on cryptographic schemes that are considered vulnerable to a sufficiently powerful quantum computer.
Earlier this week, we launched QRL 2.0 Testnet V2, which brings EVM-compatible smart contracts to a quantum-secure network.
This is the bridge to what comes next.

Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), widely used in blockchain, is a public-key encryption technique that is unbreakable for classical computers.
But once a sufficiently powerful QC arrives, anyone with access will have the 'combination to the safe'.
The $QRL was purpose-built to keep your digital assets safe now and once quantum attacks become a reality.
#PQC#PQcrypto#CyberSecurity#QDay#Y2Q
$QRL was built with quantum resistance at it's core, meaning your assets and transactions are protected from quantum threats by design—not as an afterthought.
Projects built on #QRL, and our upcoming EVM-compatible upgrade #Zond, are quantum-safe from day one, resistant to emerging threats, and free from disruptive upgrades or gaps in protection.
Build securely. Build to last. Build with QRL.

Nearly 80 million smart contracts holding billions in assets have been deployed on Ethereum. How many are quantum-resistant? Effectively zero.
For enterprises, DeFi protocols, and anyone building long-term applications, quantum security needs to be part of the plan before deployment, not after.
That’s why QRL Project Zond is bringing NIST-standardized post-quantum signatures to EVM-friendly smart contracts.

Most blockchains use cryptography that a sufficiently powerful quantum computer could break.
The assumption that there’ll be time to upgrade hinges on things going unusually well:
• Replacing legacy cryptography without breaking the network
• Updating nodes, wallets, and contracts without breaking compatibility
• Ensuring users, including inactive ones, can securely migrate their assets
All while facing technical hurdles, performance trade-offs, and the challenge of coordinating a decentralized user base.

With CRQC timelines shrinking, the blockchain ecosystem needs a secure migration path. QRL 2.0 is the destination.
We are targeting Q1 2026 for the Audit-Ready Testnet V2 release.

The #quantum tide is rising, threatening the cryptographic protocols that keep #Bitcoin, #Ethereum, and all legacy blockchains secure.
Classical algorithms like ECDSA and RSA were not designed to withstand quantum computing threats.
$QRL uses XMSS, a @NIST-approved post-quantum signature scheme with built-in crypto-agility, designed to keep your digital assets secure through wave after wave of quantum breakthroughs.

Hi Nic,
BIP-360 is a good proposal, given the technical challenges. I do like it. IMO, adding a post-quantum DSA is the relatively easy part. The real challenge is deciding how and when legacy DSAs/ECDSA are deprecated or disabled, which also has to be completed before CRQCs. I believe that’s where the hard problems live. I did a short video on this. Full disclosure, I work on the $QRL team. Cheers.

In case you missed it earlier this week in our latest episode, @Strike_Attack from the QRL Core Team covers an area that virtually no one is talking about publicly when it comes to Upgrading Bitcoin To Post-Quantum Security.
What is it?
One moment, we'll get there.
To start out, you've likely seen discussion online recently about how various blockchains from Bitcoin to Ethereum will migrate...you'll often hear statements like...
"We have a plan for that"
"Abstraction layers"
"We'll just do a hard fork later"
and so on...
So what's the problem?
None of these actually addresses the root of the vulnerability they are trying to solve for.
Learn exactly why that is in our latest episode (below in the comments) 👇
Quantum safety isn’t one-size-fits-all.
With quantum tech advancing quickly, blockchains must stay cryptoagile—ready to adapt to new cryptographic tools quantum as threats evolve.
#QRL's built-in cryptoagility helps keep your digital assets protected, even as encryption methods and vulnerabilites change.

While the race to build quantum computers heats up, only a few are seriously addressing what comes next: the quantum threat to blockchain.
Among the handful claiming quantum resistance, ask yourself:
• Are they still built on ERC-20?
• Are they truly open-source?
• Have they proven long-term security?
• Do they use verifiably secure signature schemes?
• Is there a real community behind them?
From what we’ve seen, only $QRL checks every box.
Get involved. Ask questions. Join the quantum-ready community:

Is there actually a path for Bitcoin to go post-quantum?
It’s one of the most common questions we get...and in our latest QRL Show episode, we break it down for you.

Quantum computing might be incredibly complex, but securing your project from the Quantum Threat doesn’t need to be.
$QRL offers comprehensive documentation, APIs, and tools to streamline building, deploying, and managing quantum-secure digital assets.
#PQcrypto#QuantumComputing#Y2Q
Post-quantum cryptography isn’t a future concern—it’s an active transition happening today.
With standardized algorithms established, the real challenge begins: adoption.
Organizations must assess their cryptographic infrastructure, plan migrations, and ensure resilience in a quantum-enabled world.
The quantum threat isn’t waiting—are you prepared?
