<![CDATA[Why Post-Quantum? The Threat is Real]]>Current blockchains rely on ECDSA and SHA-256 — both vulnerable to Shor's algorithm on a sufficiently powerful quantum computer. AntiQua was designed from day one assuming that threat is not hypothetical, it's a matter of when.

Our cryptographic stack:

  • ML-DSA-87 — signatures
  • ML-KEM-1024 — key encapsulation
  • SHAKE-256 — hashing
  • RandomX — Proof of Work

All NIST Level 5 — the highest standardized security level available.

Happy to go deep on any of these. Ask away.
