Quantum Resistant Cryptocurrency: The Crown Sovereign

Bitcoin.com announced that it will be listing a quantum-resistant cryptocurrency, the Crown Sovereign, on the Bitcoin.com Exchange in late September. Protected with a next-generation approach to One-Time Pad encryption, the Crown Sovereign ensures the timeless protection and value of users’ sensitive data, even alongside the emergence of quantum technology. The launch is a significant achievement for Crown Sterling as it seeks to empower data sovereignty in the dawn of quantum computing with next-generation AI encryption products.

Post-Quantum Cryptography

Low Power-High Performance

WHITEPAPERS

The background, impact, and urgency of the threat of quantum computing to the contemporary cryptographic infrastructure, and what can be done about it.

August 11th, 2021 –

By: Arm

Quantum computing is increasingly seen as a threat to communications security: rapid progress towards realizing practical quantum computers has drawn attention to the long understood potential of such machines to break fundamentals of contemporary cryptographic infrastructure. While this potential is so far firmly theoretical, the cryptography community is preparing for this possibility by developing Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC), that is, cryptography resisting the increased capabilities of quantum computers. In this white paper, we explore the background, impact, and urgency of this threat, and summarize the cryptographic schemes being evaluated. We also provide recommendations on what steps should be taken today to be prepared for the changes to come, and discuss how Arm is approaching PQC.

Quantum Threat to Blockchain Addressed by Cambridge Quantum, Tec de Monterrey and IDB Lab

The Inter-American Development Bank and its innovation laboratory, IDB Lab, together with Cambridge Quantum (CQ) and Tecnológico de Monterrey have identified and resolved potential threats to blockchain networks posed by the advent of quantum computer development. In response to these threats, the project team developed a cryptographic layer that allows blockchain networks to protect themselves from this new generation of computing technologies.
