- [Proof of Stake](/features/proof-of-stake.md)

  Proof-of-Stake is a blockchain consensus mechanism that will be replacing Proof-of-Work in QRL. Instead of computers competing for who would win the block by computing a piece of work, a validator is selected at random by the weight of their holdings. QRL currently has a post-quantum secure Proof-of-Stake devnet and code, codenamed project Zond which lays out some of the framework that may be used for our upcoming proof-of-stake system. With the aim to provide the most reliable, efficient, and flexible, post-quantum secure proof-of-stake protocol, additional competing areas of research and development are being pursued between STARKs (with hash-based cryptography), and lattice-based cryptographic solutions.

- [EnQlave — the quantum safe for your crypto assets](/features/enqlave.md)

   Please note: While this page describes EnQlave, work on this project has been retired. QRL Project Zond is now the way forward, and provides many of the same benefits without a lot of the shortcomings. Overview EnQlave is an education initiative and ecosystem which brings trustless on-chain post-quantum security (the EnQlave wallet) and cross-chain interoperability with QRL (wQRL + DEX) to sufficiently scriptable and supported blockchains, starting with Ethereum. Quantum computers are heralded as the next big thing in computing, capable of solving complex problems that would take traditional computers too long to crack. This has led to growing concern about how future quantum attacks could steal cryptocurrency by breaking the cryptography. EnQlave is a way for people to secure their assets on second most popular blockchain and learn about this growing threat of quantum computing to the blockchain space in the process.

- [Weighted Multi-signature Transactions](/features/multisig.md)

  Overview Transactions are actions (typically spending funds) which requires one signature which are signed from a private key. These public signatures can be verified by all participants without needing to see each other’s private keys through the use of public key cryptography. Multi-signature transactions are transactions sent from a defined multi-signature address that require a one or more signatures from a group a signatories before being accepted by the network. This is best represented as m-of-n, where an m amount of signatures (the Threshold) are required from a pool of n signatories. A transaction that requires ’two’ signatures from a total pool of ’three’ signatories would be a 2-of-3 multi-signature transaction. When a transaction is sent to the network from a multi-signature address, the assigned signatories have a set amount of time to sign the transaction to reach its threshold. Once that threshold is reached, the transaction is successfully sent. QRL doesn’t stop there, and features weighted Multi-signature transactions which allows weights to be assigned on a per signatory basis.
