QTC is now live on near.com, powered by @near_intents.
Swap into QTC from 180+ assets across 30+ chains, including BTC, ETH, SOL, and ZEC.
Every swap is confidential by default.
Quantum secure encrypted money, now one swap away.
EVM chains can offer post-quantum accounts without starting over.
@YuviLightman’s new paper lays out a practical approach built on two changes:
- Let accounts switch signature schemes while keeping their addresses
- Make post-quantum signatures cheap to verify
The approach covers user accounts and operator keys.
Consensus keys and pairing-based proofs need separate upgrades. The paper covers those too.
Mumbai, tonight.
The room is full, and the fireside is on.
@YuviLightman and @n13 are on stage with @chronear from @near_intents, talking quantum readiness, where cryptography goes next, and how intents have grown.
Live at the @QuantusNetwork and @NEARProtocol event!
@chronear 🤝 @n13 🤝 @YuviLightman are all discussing Quantus, NEAR intents, and the amazing growth of the last year

“NEAR Intents has been an awesome integration for Quantus.” - @YuviLightman, CEO, @QuantusNetwork
$50M+ in Quantus volume has run through NEAR Intents since its launch in Oct 2026. The Quantus network is integrated, and its native token, QTC, launched on near.com through NEAR Intents.
Honestly @near_intents has been an awesome integration for Quantus. They already support dozens of chains so it's not difficult for us to go cross-chain, and the UX is excellent.
If Bitcoin were built today, with quantum computers in mind, it would have:
- Post-quantum signatures from day one
- Nothing to migrate
- Built to scale with bigger signatures
- Privacy in the protocol
That’s Quantus.
Here’s how it compares 👇
Privacy is built in.
Bitcoin’s blockchain is public.
Anyone can follow coins from one address to the next.
On QTC, you can send privately.
A zero-knowledge proof is designed to break the link between where the coins came from and where they went.

Last week in quantum:
@NIST finalized its post-quantum migration roadmap.
NIST IR 8547 sets out how organizations should move from quantum-vulnerable algorithms to the new standards. Under its timeline, ECDSA is deprecated after 2030 and disallowed after 2035.
@coinbase confirmed its post-quantum custody upgrade is underway
During its October 29 earnings call, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong confirmed that the exchange has begun work to make its custody systems post-quantum-ready.
He also pointed to Bitcoin proposals such as BIP-360, saying the wider network will need to agree on a migration path. Coinbase's own preparations are underway, but Bitcoin has not adopted a post-quantum upgrade.
@Alice__Bob cut the estimate for breaking a Bitcoin key.
Its researchers modeled a future machine with 29,588 physical qubits recovering a private key from an exposed public key in about 62 minutes. That's roughly 17 times fewer qubits than Google's March estimate, though the two studies assume different hardware. At 62 minutes it's too slow to beat a transaction to confirmation, so the risk sits with keys that are already exposed.
South Korea is testing post-quantum SIMs for defense.
IDEMIA is putting both NIST and Korean post-quantum algorithms on SIM chips for KT, as part of a government pilot. KT's wider pilot covers defense systems, including drones, ground control systems, and 5G networks.
@intel agreed to buy @ClassiqTech.
The deal pairs Classiq's quantum circuit-design software with Intel's spin-qubit hardware. It's expected to close in the first half of 2027, pending approvals.
The attack estimates keep shrinking. The encouraging part is that the migration work is getting more specific too.

NEAR is taking over Mumbai this week.
Join the NEAR × Quantus Mixer during Devcon for drinks, networking, and a fireside with Chris Smith (@QuantusNetwork) and Harshit Tiwari (@near_intents) on post-quantum security and private money.
Also catch Harshit Tiwari (@chronear) at @UnchainedSummit (Nov 5–6) talking ecosystem growth + real onchain adoption.
