Quantus Weekly: Mapping the Quantum-Secure Future
Fra Mauro spent years inside a monastery near Venice drawing a map of the entire known world.
He never sailed anywhere.
Merchants and sailors visited the monastery and described what they’d seen. Fra Mauro cross-referenced every account against every other. He rejected claims that didn’t hold up, and revised constantly.
The result showed places most Europeans had never heard of. East Africa. The Indian Ocean. Southeast Asia. Territory that existed but wasn’t real to anyone who hadn’t been there.
Quantus sets the standard for quantum-secure money.
But we’ve got to be on the map.
This week, Quantus got listed on @coingecko.
There is a category called “quantum resistant”, and it’s less than $5B in market cap.
Soon the entire crypto market cap will be “quantum resistant”, because every chain will either upgrade or go to zero.
But for now the category is small, and even amongst the chains on the list, there is plenty of work to be done.
So here’s what else we shipped this week.
