ONE · Price

Executive Summary

  • 01 Communique Laboratory Inc. formally launched qLABS, a new crypto foundation focused on quantum resilience, activating a strategic alliance announced on July 30, 2025.
  • The partnership integrates 01's patent-pending post-quantum cryptographic technology into existing blockchain infrastructure to protect digital assets from quantum computing threats.
  • qLABS plans to release a quantum-safe wallet in Q1 2026 and aims to deploy wrapped quantum-resistant tokens on major ecosystems including Solana, Ethereum, and Bitcoin.

Key Details

  • Partnership Activation: The launch marks the formal activation of the strategic alliance between 01 Communique Laboratory Inc. and qLABS, established on July 30, 2025.
  • Technology Integration: qLABS will integrate 01's patent-pending post-quantum cryptographic technology (U.S. Patent No. 63/832787) directly into blockchain infrastructure, focusing on protecting digital assets and decentralized applications.
  • Strategic Approach: Unlike projects building new Layer 1 blockchains, qLABS focuses on enabling quantum-resistant infrastructure for existing, widely adopted blockchains to ensure immediate relevance and scalability.
  • Leadership Appointments:
    • Antanas Guoga (Tony G) serves as President of qLABS; he is a former European Parliament member and former chairman of Sol Strategies Inc.
    • Ada Jonuse has been appointed Executive Director of qLABS.
  • Product Roadmap:
    • Development of quantum-resistant wallets for individuals and institutions.
    • Deployment of wrapped quantum-resistant tokens on Hyperliquid, Solana, Ethereum, and Bitcoin.
    • Design and implementation of quantum-resistant stablecoin infrastructure.
  • Timeline: Marketing campaigns are ramping up through the end of the year, with the first available offering (a quantum-safe wallet) planned for release in the first quarter of 2026.
  • Company Context: 01 is currently in the process of rebranding to 01 Quantum Inc.

Notable Quotes

  • "qLABS exists to solve the problem crypto doesn't want to talk about: quantum attacks are coming, and most of Web3 isn't ready," said Tony G., president of qLABS. "We're building real tools, with real IP, for a very real threat. And we're doing it now, before Q-Day hits."
  • "With this collaboration we are bringing enterprise-grade quantum security into the crypto space," said Andrew Cheung, chief executive officer of 01. "Together with qLABS, we're safeguarding crypto to not only survive the quantum era but also thrive in it."
