MATE · Price

Executive Summary

  • Blockmate Ventures Inc.'s investee, Hivello Holdings, has partnered with Naoris Protocol to integrate quantum-resistant cybersecurity into its platform.
  • This integration positions Hivello as the world's first quantum-resistant DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) earning platform.
  • The partnership aims to future-proof user earnings and node security against emerging quantum computing threats while facilitating mass adoption of Web3 infrastructure.

Key Details

  • Partnership Structure: Hivello Holdings (DePIN aggregator) partnered with Naoris Protocol (decentralized quantum-resistant security leader).
  • Technology Integration: Naoris's mesh-based validator technology is integrated into Hivello’s on-boarding engine, transforming user devices into active, quantum-resistant security nodes.
  • Strategic Positioning: Hivello claims to be the "world's first quantum-resistant DePIN earning platform," setting a new benchmark for security in the DePIN ecosystem.
  • Security Benefits: The upgrade protects node operators, secures the value layer of DePIN rewards, and mitigates risks associated with large-scale quantum computing breaking traditional encryption.
  • Use Cases: The security mesh supports scalable Internet of Things (IoT), smart city, fintech, and artificial intelligence use cases.
  • User Impact: Users can earn passive income from idle computer resources while benefiting from enterprise-grade, "unhackable" security against advanced cyber and quantum threats.

Notable Quotes

  • Justin Rosenberg, CEO of Blockmate Ventures: "In becoming quantum resistant ahead of the industry, Hivello signals its commitment to long-term resilience, scalability and leadership in the DePIN economy... Without QR architecture, global systems risk becoming obsolete the moment large-scale quantum computing arrives, so we are delighted to see the Hivello team future-proof the platform by mitigating future risks that will arrive as quantum computing develops."
  • David Carvalho, Founder of Naoris Protocol: "Integrating Naoris's security mesh into Hivello's ecosystem is a transformative step for decentralized infrastructure earning. It makes trust and reliability the default for everyone in the decentralized economy."
  • Domenic Carosa, Co-founder and Chairman of Hivello: "This partnership with Naoris marks a defining moment for Hivello and the entire DePIN sector. By embedding postquantum security directly into our mass-market on-boarding engine, we're not just protecting users. We're removing the single biggest barrier to mainstream adoption... This is enterprise-grade security delivered at consumer scale -- exactly what the market has been waiting for."
