POST-QUANTUM CRYPTOGRAPHY

QubitCoin

Bitcoin, secured for the quantum era.

A post-quantum fork of Bitcoin using ML-DSA-65 (Dilithium) lattice-based signatures. Migrate your BTC to quantum-safe UTXOs — no trust required.

ABOUT

Why QubitCoin?

Quantum computers threaten the elliptic curve cryptography securing every Bitcoin transaction. QubitCoin is a Bitcoin fork that replaces ECDSA with NIST-standardized post-quantum signatures — today.

Quantum Resistant

ML-DSA-65 (FIPS 204) lattice-based signatures resist both classical and quantum attacks. Your coins stay safe even when large-scale quantum computers arrive.

Seamless Migration

BTC holders prove ownership with a one-time ECDSA signature to claim their full aggregated address balance as quantum-safe QBTC. No trust, no intermediaries.

Bitcoin DNA

Same UTXO model. Same SHA-256 proof-of-work. Same decentralized ethos. QubitCoin preserves what makes Bitcoin great — and future-proofs it.

TECHNOLOGY

Under the Hood

Built on NIST-standardized post-quantum cryptography with Bitcoin's proven architecture.

FIPS 204

ML-DSA-65 (Dilithium)

Module-Lattice Digital Signature Algorithm at security level 3. Based on the hardness of the Module Learning With Errors problem — no known quantum algorithm can efficiently solve it.

Public key 1,952 bytes
Signature 3,293 bytes
Security level NIST Level 3
Quantum safe Yes
SNAPSHOT

Real Bitcoin UTXO Set

QubitCoin forks from a real Bitcoin Core dumptxoutset — the complete ledger state at a specific block height. Every supported address balance is aggregated per address and committed in the genesis block.

Source Bitcoin Core v28+
Raw UTXOs ~160M entries
Aggregated addresses ~58M balances
Claimable types All standard types
Tx

UTXO Model

Bitcoin-style unspent outputs with ML-DSA-65 signatures.

PoW

SHA-256 Mining

Quantum computers offer at most 2x speedup via Grover's.

Cl

ECDSA Claims

One-time secp256k1 proofs to claim your address balance.

Sn

BTC Snapshot

Real Bitcoin UTXO dump, aggregated per address with merkle commitment.

PROCESS

How It Works

Migrate from Bitcoin to QubitCoin in three steps.

1

Snapshot Bitcoin

A Bitcoin full node dumps the complete UTXO set via dumptxoutset. ~164M UTXOs are parsed, filtered to all standard types, and aggregated into ~58M address balances.

2

Claim Your Balance

Sign a claim message with your Bitcoin private key. The network verifies your key matches a snapshot address and binds your full aggregated balance to a new ML-DSA-65 public key. One claim per address.

3

Transact Quantum-Safe

Once claimed, your QBTC coins live in quantum-resistant UTXOs. All future transactions use ML-DSA-65 signatures — safe from both classical and quantum adversaries.
