Eight Years of Building the Quantum-Safe Future

Eight years ago, QRL mainnet launched with a conviction that felt early at the time: quantum resistance belongs at the foundation, not on the roadmap someday.

Since then, QRL has kept doing what secure infrastructure should do: operate, endure, and prove itself over time. Now, as post-quantum standards mature and quantum timelines compress, the industry is catching up to a risk QRL was built around from genesis.

QRL’s anniversary is both a milestone and a signal of where quantum-safe infrastructure is headed next.

The Core Problem With Migrating Classical Blockchains To Post-Quantum Cryptography

In our latest episode, post-quantum cryptography expert, Dr. Joseph Kearney, joins a conversation that goes deep into the Core Problems faced when Migrating Classical Blockchains To Post-Quantum Cryptography.

If you want to stay ahead of the curve regarding the quantum threat to blockchains and what the pros/cons of various approaches (to staying quantum secure) are, you’ll want to watch this one from start to finish.
