The uncrackable testnet converging Quantum, Blockchain and AI
UAE & Switzerland, 20 May, 2025: Quranium, the world’s first infrastructure purpose-built for the convergence of quantum security, AI-native intelligence, and blockchain trust, has today launched its testnet, delivering the long-awaited missing link in Web3: an uncrackable, intelligent, and scalable foundation for the digital era.
Supercomputing, Quantum technology, AI, and blockchain are no longer evolving in silos; they are converging. This shift demands a unified, secure infrastructure. Until now, no foundational layer has existed to integrate these technologies seamlessly.
Quranium introduces The Convergence Layer, the first infrastructure purpose-built to unite:
- Quantum Security: Uncrackable by quantum computers, using NIST-approved SLHDSA signatures and ML-KEM encryption.
- AI-Native Design: On-chain autonomous agents that audit, deploy, govern, and evolve smart contracts.
- EVM Compatibility: Fully compatible with Ethereum tools, upgraded for the quantum era.
- High-Performance Architecture: Supercomputing-grade nodes for speed, scale, and reliability.
- Decentralized P2P Stack: Inspired by devp2p/libp2p, enhanced with post-quantum protections, optimized gossip, and advanced relay logic.
“We’re not here to patch broken systems. We’re here to rebuild them, stronger and future-proof. The Quranium testnet, built by our world-class tech team, isn’t just a developer sandbox; it’s a live demonstration of the infrastructure needed for a secure, thriving digital future,” said Kapil Dhiman, CEO & Co-founder of Quranium.
From today, Quranium provides a live environment to:
- Deploy smart contracts using Q-REMIX, Quranium’s AI-powered contract generation and management tool.
- Switch to the Quranium network via QSafe: Quantum-Secure Crypto Wallet (‘QSafe’), a multi-chain, quantum-secure wallet that supports almost all the blockchains live today including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana etc.
- Explore the ecosystem with QRN Scan, a transparent, intuitive block explorer purpose-built for the Quranium chain, offering real-time insights into blocks, transactions, wallets, and smart contracts.
Quranium is also a call to the broader blockchain ecosystem. It is a catalyst, not a competitor. Through technologies like Q-REMIX, developers can bring post-quantum security and convergence-era capabilities to any chain, making Quranium a partner to existing blockchains, not a rival.
Quranium’s testnet enables builders and developers to actively explore, test, and contribute to the world’s first infrastructure purpose-built for the convergence of quantum, AI, and decentralized technologies. Visit www.quranium.org to enter the world of Convergence.
The Quantum Cliff & the future of cryptography: A critical moment for Web3
The world is approaching what experts call the Quantum Cliff, or Q-Day, when quantum computers will be able to break the cryptographic systems securing today’s internet, banking, and decentralized technologies. As early as 2022, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy warned that “quantum computers could eventually break the cryptography that secures the internet, banking systems, and even cryptocurrencies.” That warning is no longer hypothetical.
With quantum breakthroughs accelerating, urgency is rising. In May 2025, BlackRock stated: “The accelerating pace of quantum advancements necessitates immediate action. Financial institutions must prioritize quantum-resilient infrastructure.”
Yet despite mounting alarms, over 99% of Web3 projects still rely on cryptographic algorithms like ECDSA and BLS, standard across Bitcoin, Ethereum, and most L1s, L2s, wallets, and dApps – despite being known quantum vulnerabilities.
The U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has confirmed that much of today’s encryption could be obsolete within the next decade, calling in its 2024 report for urgent migration to post-quantum cryptographic standards.
Kapil Dhiman continues: “Quranium takes this threat seriously. Rather than patching outdated systems, we’re building from first principles, with post-quantum security at the core – designed not just for today’s risks, but for a quantum-powered future.”
The future needs a foundation
The next chapter of the digital world will be written by the platforms bold enough to face reality. AI is growing autonomous, quantum is breaking encryption, and Web3 is still scaling its training wheels.
In the World Economic Forum’s (WEF) October 2024 report entitled “Navigating Cyber Resilience in the Age of Emerging Technologies,” the authors emphasize the importance of transitioning from “security by design” to “resilience by design” in response to the complexities introduced by technologies like AI and quantum computing:
“The increasing interconnectivity of these technologies results in a more complex and dynamic threat landscape… This interconnectedness, while beneficial for operational efficiency, necessitates a comprehensive and adaptive approach to cybersecurity – one that not only protects against potential breaches but also ensures robust recovery mechanisms to maintain continuity and trust in digital systems.” – World Economic Forum, 2024
And Klaus Schwab, Founder and Executive Chairman of the WEF, highlighted the transformative impact of intelligent technologies in his article “Klaus Schwab’s Call for Cooperation and Collaboration in the Intelligent Age” in Time Magazine, early 2025:
“Intelligent technologies – quantum computing, biotechnology, spatial computing and blockchain – are intelligent because they are being enhanced and enabled by AI. This is extremely promising, but we have significant responsibilities to one another to make sure these developments do not do more … .”
This is what Quranium was built for. More than a protocol, Quranium is a global movement to future-proof digital freedom. Its message to builders, researchers, enterprises, and sovereign nations is clear: come build on the only foundation engineered for the convergence era.
