Most blockchains were built assuming the math would never break. Naoris Protocol was built assuming it would.
The company just launched its mainnet - a Layer 1 blockchain running on post-quantum cryptography approved by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The encryption works today and will work after quantum computing changes the math.
Quantum computers don't exist at scale yet. But when they do, they'll shred the encryption protecting every major cryptocurrency.
Bitcoin's addresses become readable. Ethereum's wallets become hackable. Naoris uses CRYSTALS-Dilithium, an algorithm approved by NIST at the highest security tier, instead of waiting for that to happen.
Naoris created an "irreversible security transition." Once a user activates quantum-resistant keys, the network automatically blocks anyone using old-style crypto signatures. No backward compatibility.
You can't accidentally use broken security and you can't be tricked into vulnerable transactions - the network simply stops accepting them.
Naoris is in invite-only validator testing with 106 million transactions processed and 603 million threats blocked so far. The real test comes when it opens to retail users. Watch how many existing crypto holders migrate.
