The Quantum
Threat

Every major blockchain relies on elliptic curve cryptography. A quantum computer could break it all.

"Harvest Now, Decrypt Later" is not theoretical. It is an active intelligence strategy. Every transaction today is a future liability.

The Solution

5 Layers.
Zero Vulnerability.

No elliptic curve. No integer factorization. Every layer is independently quantum-resistant.

01
Signature Layer
Dilithium3 / ML-DSA — NIST FIPS 204
Module Learning With Errors (M-LWE) based. NIST Level 3 security. 3293-byte signatures, 1952-byte public keys.
02
Proof Layer
Recursive STARKs — Hash-based
1000 Dilithium3 signatures compressed into a single ~150KB proof. 22× compression. No trusted setup. Quantum-safe by construction.
03
Consensus Layer
CometBFT v0.38 — Dilithium-native fork
All validator signatures are Dilithium3. Ed25519 is entirely removed. BFT consensus, 3–5 second block times.
04
Key Management
ANS — Atomic Name Service
On-chain alias service. 1952-byte public keys mapped to short handles. Key rotation with timelock protection.
05
Anti-Spam
Lattice-PoW + Gas hybrid
Memory-hard lattice puzzle. ASIC-resistant. Dynamic equilibrium: PoW difficulty × gas price = constant. ARM NEON optimized for mobile.
Proof Compression

1000 Signatures.
1 Proof.

Recursive STARKs aggregate thousands of 3.3KB Dilithium3 signatures into a single ~150KB hash-based proof. No elliptic curves. No trusted setup.
