Quantum Resistant Ledger (QRL) was established to address the potential threats quantum computing (QC) will pose to blockchain technology, which is presently widely reliant on quantum-vulnerable cryptography.

Amid widespread uncertainty in the expert community regarding the timeline and specific quantum capabilities required to challenge existing cryptographic defenses, QRL aims to provide a preemptive solution. The project, initiated with Dr. Peter Waterland's whitepaper in 2016, strives to be a safeguard for the blockchain industry against the evolving quantum threat, positioning itself as a foundational technology for future innovations in the Quantum Age.

To uncover more about QRL's trajectory and its role in the evolving landscape of quantum computing, delve into the [full report](QRL_Primary_Report_2024.pdf).

date: 2024-03-04
blurb: |
Google and the XPRIZE Foundation are launching a three-year competition to encourage researchers to develop new quantum algorithms that could have practical real-world applications. While current quantum computers excel at certain abstract mathematical problems, this challenge aims to bridge the gap between these theoretical advancements and their practical utility, focusing on potential applications like improving battery storage capacity without necessarily requiring a working solution.
