I thought it was new when you posted it 6 hours ago 😇
Why is a vote, to research a simple idea, making headlines.
I'd look at @QANplatform who has been building to meet actual participant needs for years, with game changing innovations no one else has .
qanplatform:native shows progress:
->XLINK signature management moves on-chain
->QVM execution caching with Valkey
->Cross-hardware validation in preparation
->Go-Ethereum execution layer ready for audit
->modified execution clients move final audit
No change to the mainnet timeline
September Milestones: XLINK Goes On-Chain and Deterministic QVM Metering Takes Shape
September was a month of deep engineering for QANplatform. Our team turned their attention to the work that will define the production network: moving XLINK signature management on-chain, building a caching layer to speed up QVM executions, advancing our deterministic gas-metering research toward a real pricing model, and hardening the network against the subtle edge cases that only appear under sustained load.
This month also brought a major strategic milestone: with the execution-layer rebase complete, our audited quantum-safe stack is ready for the final security-audit phase.

Solid: Lighthouse has been selected for the mainnet consensus layer qanplatform:native
A clear, technically grounded step toward launch and the audit process is moving forward in parallel
No change to the launch, as the altcoin market shifts toward real utility, quantum-resistant matters
[Audit status update]
Based on all received feedback, we have finalized the decision on the consensus layer integration for the mainnet stack.
After careful consideration, we selected Lighthouse by Sigma Prime.
As discussed previously, Lighthouse is the most widely used consensus client and is considered semi-official due to its broad adoption among node operators. This choice best meets the technical and policy requirements of our strategic partners.
What happens next:
Step 1:
We are currently preparing the official Go-Ethereum based execution client to be compatible with the modified Lighthouse consensus client.
Step 2:
Once these modifications are ready, we will submit the execution client to the auditors, expected by end of next week.
Step 3:
Once the required Lighthouse modifications are completed, we will also submit the consensus client to the auditor.
Just to clarify, the above steps do not alter the mainnet launch timeline, as these processes are fully parallel.

Sadly, even without AI, it was clear math and quantum computing were both advancing. I give eth credit for finally realizing QR must be a top priority. But I'm still seeing ideas without a concrete plan for transition.
@qanplatform has built for this inevitable market opportunity.

Give a look at Europols post about QanPlatform
xitter.cf/nsagov/status/21056951…
@NSAGov you could give a look at @Europol s citation about QanPlatform.com
Hey @NSAGov, as institutions explore post-quantum-resistant blockchains and ways to protect historical records, you should take a close look at
@QANplatform / qanplatform:native.
Its quantum-resistant hybrid, developer-focused blockchain approach could become one of the strongest practical solutions for long-term digital infrastructure for enterprises. @Europol has already shown interest
Worth a serious evaluation ✊

Europol mentions QANplatform in its recently published report, “Quantum Computing and Cryptocurrencies,” as a proven example of quantum-safe blockchain technology.
QAN XLINK, a cross-signer protocol that utilizes NIST’s primary-recommended post-quantum cryptography (PQC) algorithm and enables the integration of Ethereum-compatible wallets with quantum-safe, signature-capable key pairs, successfully completed a comprehensive cybersecurity audit by blockchain security firm Hacken (@hackenclub) in November 2025.
The solution is already deployed on the QAN TestNet.
Find the links to the report and audit in the replies. 👇
Europol mentioning @QANplatform, is remarkable!
To be named in an official @Europol report on quantum computing and cryptocurrencies shows that its approach is gaining serious recognition
S&P 500 companies, #Ethereum devs and ETH board members are involved 😉

Europol's 2026 report on quantum computing and crypto names @QANplatform as a project that already has post-quantum signatures working.
On the radar of EU law enforcement. Just an example... or is there more going on? Mmmm 🤔

~70%.
According to experts, that's how much cheaper it will be to crack the math behind elliptic curve cryptography that secures a huge share of our digital lives. In 2017, the estimate was about 2,330 logical qubits. Jo and Lee's (Georgia Tech) preprint published this month puts the estimate in the 640-800 range.
The required qubit count has steadily dropped throughout the decade, with progress accelerating dramatically this year as researchers quietly made massive leaps in academic papers.
Although cryptographically relevant quantum computers aren't here yet, a two-thirds drop in required qubits means the timeline is moving faster than expected.

People always want to find the next Amazon early.
I see some parallels with @QANplatform.
People label $QANX as a Quantum resistance play thinking that narrative is their only path forward.
In reality, they knew being QR prepared is a requirement to overcome enterprise adoption objections.
But then the innovation to solve crypto's blindspots also opened up market opportunities like we see with Signquantum.
And now they have rebased to align with an even wider set of requirements to meet partner demands.
Without a doubt they are aiming big. It's clear they believe the pieces fall into place when they launch. Retail hype is an effect, not a cause.
Will it fall into place? We're about to find out. But we do know they've built with the input of future consumers. IBM, Ueno, Itti, Crowe Signquantum, and we can only guess at who demanded rebase requirements. That certainly increases the chances of a success story.
Post-quantum isn’t a patch you add later!
@intel Steve Orrin: 2030/31 is the migration deadline, but the risk is today.
If your blockchain still relies only on ECDSA, your data and keys are already on the “harvest” list.
Quantum-resistant from genesis isn’t optional, it’s risk management. Block 0 must be protected!
bitcoin:native ethereum:native $SOL
Speaking on a recent podcast, Steve Orrin, Intel’s Federal Chief Technologist, warns that the quantum threat is "not a future problem, it's a today problem."
"In my personal opinion, I think that from a risk perspective, 2030, 2031 is the right target. If we could do it earlier, we should, because the harvest now, decrypt later threat is already a risk.
It’s already happening, and it has been happening. Every encrypted piece of data that’s been pulled off the net and waiting in some large database for when the quantum computer comes online — if you want that data to be protected after that, you need to have started post-quantum encrypting back when you created that data." - Steve Orrin, Intel’s Federal Chief Technologist
The takeaway: start securing your data today to keep it safe in the quantum era.
For decentralized systems, this means building on a blockchain that is quantum-safe from block 0.
Phishing warnings are important, but so is recognizing the people who help uncover and escalate the underlying security issue.
@luis_blnk warned the $QANX community about suspicious SafePal-related phishing activity days before SafePal publicly disclosed the breach.
He contacted SafePal support, followed up repeatedly and appears to have played a significant role in bringing attention to the issue.
Yet @SafePal says there is no bug bounty available and offered merchandise instead.
Responsible security awareness deserves meaningful recognition. Not a merchandise hoodie
Full timeline and screenshots in the thread below 👇
Compare this with how @QANplatform handled the October 2022 QANX Bridge hack.
Despite having significantly fewer resources at the time, $QANX created a new contract and established a compensation process for ALL affected holders.
@safepal_support should reconsider, because I lost my trust!
As a SafePal user, I have decided to delete my SafePal account.
Not because SafePal says that seed phrases or private keys were affected, but because this response has seriously damaged my trust.
Trust is earned through actions, especially when things go wrong.
@SafePal @binance @cz_binance
People like @luis_blnk show why strong and security-conscious communities matter.
You could have turned that chaos into an opportunity.
