A strategic partnership has been established between 01 Communique and the newly formed crypto foundation, qLABS, to create quantum-resistant infrastructure for leading blockchain networks. This initiative seeks to safeguard Web3 from potential future threats posed by advancements in quantum computing.
Under the leadership of blockchain advocate Antanas Guoga, more commonly known as Tony G, and Executive Director Ada Jonuse, qLABS is set to integrate 01’s patent-pending post-quantum cryptographic technology into existing blockchain frameworks. The foundation has declared its intention to launch its inaugural product, a quantum-safe wallet, in the first quarter of 2026.
Differentiating itself from competitors that focus on developing entirely new Layer 1 blockchains, qLABS aims to enhance established networks such as Hyperliquid, Solana, Ethereum, and Bitcoin with quantum-resistant solutions. The project intends to develop a series of tools, including quantum-resistant wallets, wrapped tokens, and infrastructure designed for stablecoins.
This collaboration comes at a critical juncture in the crypto landscape, where the looming threat of quantum computing necessitates urgent action. As traditional cryptographic systems become increasingly vulnerable to future quantum attacks, the integration of robust protective measures is vital.
Tony G expressed the urgency of addressing the potential risks. “We’re building real tools, with real IP, for a very real threat. And we’re doing it now, before Q-Day hits,” he stated, highlighting the proactive stance of qLABS. Andrew Cheung, CEO of 01, echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the importance of establishing enterprise-grade quantum security within the cryptocurrency realm.
In pursuit of a broader initiative, qLABS plans to raise industry awareness about quantum preparedness alongside its product launches. The roadmap includes the development of secure integration frameworks while engaging with communities to promote a collective preparedness for quantum threats.
As the deadline for the wallet launch in 2026 approaches, the success of this partnership hinges on its adoption by major blockchain networks and their communities. If successful, this venture has the potential to significantly bolster the security of digital assets and decentralized applications against the impending challenges of quantum computing.
