What is qONE (QONE)?
qONE is a quantum-resistant token deployed on Hyperliquid’s HyperEVM that powers the qONE Security Protocol, a quantum-resistant security layer built by qLABS. The protocol’s first product, qVAULT.xyz, is a quantum-safe vault. Funds kept in this vault are safe even after Q-Day arrives, the day when quantum computers will be able to decrypt private keys and gain access to standard crypto wallets.
How does qONE work?
qVAULT.xyz is a non-custodial, smart-contract-based vault that adds a second, quantum-safe signature requirement on top of a user’s existing wallet key, based on the NIST-approved Falcon (FN-DSA) algorithm. This way a quantum attacker who compromises the classical key alone cannot move the funds. qVAULT.xyz currently supports qONE and HYPE on HyperEVM, with Ethereum, USDC and USDT support planned. qONE is used to pay quantum-resistant transaction fees, to stake for protocol access, and for governance voting on protocol upgrades.
