01 Communique signs alliance with crypto foundation

ONE · Price

Executive Summary

  • 01 Communique Laboratory Inc. (rebranding to 01 Quantum Inc.) signed a strategic alliance agreement on July 29, 2025, with a quantum-native crypto foundation led by Antanas Guoga (Tony G) to develop quantum-safe cryptocurrencies and blockchain infrastructure.
  • The partnership aims to create quantum-resistant tokens and secure wallet solutions for major blockchains including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Solana (SOL) to protect against future "Q-Day" quantum computing threats.
  • 01 Communique will be compensated via development fees, a percentage of token sale proceeds, and a share of the quantum-safe tokens issued by the foundation.

Key Details

  • Agreement Date: July 29, 2025.
  • Counterparty: A pioneering quantum-native crypto foundation, recently founded under the presidency of Antanas Guoga (Tony G).
  • Objective: Develop a series of quantum-safe cryptocurrencies and a secure post-quantum crypto ecosystem.
  • Scope of Development:
    • Development of quantum-safe tokens running natively on existing blockchains (BTC, ETH, SOL).
    • Creation of secure wallets, quantum-safe wrapped versions of major digital assets, quantum-resistant stablecoin infrastructure, and developer tools for decentralized applications.
    • Integration of 01 Communique’s patent-pending technology (US No. 63/832787) leveraging zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) mechanisms to bypass data-size limitations.
    • Integration of IronCAP, the company's postquantum cryptography technology, into the quantum-safe token.
  • Compensation Structure:
    • Development fees.
    • A percentage of proceeds from the token sale.
    • A percentage share in the quantum-safe tokens issued by the foundation.
  • Timeline:
    • Project commences immediately.
    • Official launch of the foundation to be announced in the fall.
    • Further updates on token and wallet availability to be provided as development milestones are achieved.
  • Technological Context:
    • Focus on mitigating "harvest now, decrypt later" risks where cryptographic data is harvested today for future decryption by quantum computers.
    • First quantum-resistant token to include commercial-grade components: software wallet, desktop API, and API compatibility for third-party wallets.

Notable Quotes

  • Andrew Cheung, CEO of 01 Communique: "With the recent announcement of our rebranding to 01 Quantum Inc., this partnership not only affirms our focus on the quantum sector but also represents a major milestone for the company... This agreement sets a new benchmark for security in cryptocurrencies by addressing this emerging threat directly."
  • Antanas Guoga (Tony G), President of the Foundation: "This partnership with 01 Quantum is both essential and strategic by integrating quantum-safe encryption directly into an existing blockchain which sets a powerful precedent for resilience. Through innovation and collaboration, we are helping to futureproof the crypto ecosystem and ensure it remains secure and viable in the postquantum era."
