Enigma was unbreakable. Until a machine broke it. Bitcoin has a machine coming for it too.

The bunker was built in 2018. Hash-based from genesis, just like the doctor ordered. Meet the quantum-safe vault.

Already running nodes in crypto? QRL 2.0 is moving to Proof-of-Stake, with 40,000 QRL required to run a validator. For those looking to position for a node ahead of mainnet, QRL is also available OTC through DV Chain for larger transactions. Show your interest: dvchain.co/ContactUs Prepare today. Run tomorrow. $QRL @QRLedger @DV_Chain #Crypto #Validator #QuantumSafe

I wonder when we'll begin to see the impact of the ECDSA.fail challenge. I expect we'll see new records soon. $QRL
We’ve received notice that the Department of Commerce has lifted export controls on Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5. We'll begin restoring access tomorrow, and will share an update soon. We’re grateful to our users for their patience, and to everyone who worked with us on redeploying the models.

At least 1,200 people died of heatstroke in France last Wednesday, mostly elderly people indoors. Even crazier, about 70,000 Europeans die from the same every year, akin to a bi-weekly 9/11. Eurobros, please vote for leaders who will let you open your windows and install A/C!

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. Read more: theqrl.org/blog/celebrating-…

🇫🇷 A GOVERNMENT JUST DECLARED BITCOIN'S ENCRYPTION OBSOLETE France's cyber agency won't certify any security product without quantum-safe encryption after 2027. It never mentions crypto. Not once. But Bitcoin and Ethereum run on the exact algorithm France just rejected. Elliptic curve cryptography. The clock on "harvest now, decrypt later" just started ticking louder.

This makes the direction of travel crystal clear. If governments are transitioning to NIST-approved post-quantum cryptography, blockchain networks will eventually need to do the same. Quantum-safe security is becoming a requirement, not a nice-to-have. $QRL (Quantum Resistant Ledger) was built specifically for this future and already uses NIST-approved quantum-resistant cryptography. It's one of the few projects that has been preparing for the post-quantum era from day one. Worth noting: $LMT Lockheed Martin referenced QRL technology in one of its patents, highlighting that post-quantum security is being taken seriously far beyond the crypto industry. @QRLedger

Comically impressive that there's a nationwide outage of @TD_Canada for half a day now and there's zero acknowledgement or reporting from TD. Might be an underhanded acknowledgement that they don't provide a critical enough service to warrant accurate status updates?

Quantum computing is an approaching threat to blockchain security. 🔐 For most networks, the cryptographic foundations were never built to withstand it. @QRLedger has been building to address that problem ever since 2018.
