Quantum-resistant should come with a clear answer to one question: Which parts of the system? The wallet signature? Recovery process? Validator keys? The proof system behind a privacy network? That is why @quipnetwork latest reminder about the Quantum Alliance is worth revisiting. Postquant Labs and 8 other organizations launched the Alliance on October 15 to develop shared, public criteria for post-quantum readiness. The problem it addresses remains unresolved: without a common standard, two projects can use the same security label while protecting very different things. The Alliance’s initial work covers four areas: - Migrating live blockchains, including exposed keys and dormant accounts - Evaluating post-quantum zero-knowledge systems - Securing wallets, hardware signers and recovery flows - Making post-quantum keys work consistently across chains This is an independent, open initiative - not a Quip certification programme. Individual contributors can participate and its outputs are intended to be published openly. The next milestone to watch is the actual output: test criteria, benchmarks and migration reference designs. A useful standard should let developers, custodians and users ask the same questions and compare the evidence behind the answers.
