replaced the aes256 dependency with scrypt-derived AES-256-GCM encryption while retaining compatibility with legacy wallet files Other News & Updates QRL Announces Trail of Bits Publication of Security Assessment of its Cryptographic Heart, With All Findings Resolved An independent review examined the cryptographic heart of QRL, including implementations, public API, and wallet state management.
Read the Press Release Reflections on the COLDCARD RNG Exploit The Coldcard RNG exploit shows how silently degraded entropy can put hardware wallet users at risk. QRL v1 wallets remain secure with 384 bits of operating-system entropy, while the incident underscores the need for continuous audits, fail-closed randomness, and quantum-resistant cryptography.
