In a significant advancement for blockchain security, 01 Communique Laboratory Inc., a cybersecurity company specializing in preparing for the quantum computing era, has officially partnered with qLABS to launch a quantum-native crypto foundation. The foundation, known as qLABS, has been designed with the specific purpose of defending decentralized systems from the looming risks associated with quantum computing.
The initiative builds on a strategic alliance first announced in late July 2025 between the two organizations to develop quantum-safe cryptocurrencies. The launch formalizes this collaboration and signals the beginning of a new phase in efforts to strengthen Web3 infrastructure against the potential vulnerabilities posed by quantum technology. Marketing efforts are already underway, with plans to intensify outreach through the end of 2025 in preparation for the release of qLABS’ first product—a quantum-secure wallet—scheduled for the first quarter of 2026.
Leadership and vision for the foundation
qLABS is being led by entrepreneur and long-time blockchain advocate Antanas Guoga, widely known as Tony G. His early involvement in crypto investment and policy development has been credited with shaping Europe’s approach to digital assets. He previously served as a Member of the European Parliament and has held leadership positions in blockchain-focused companies, including Sol Strategies Inc., a Canadian public firm engaged in Solana blockchain infrastructure. Supporting the leadership team is Ada Jonuse, a serial Web3 entrepreneur, who has been appointed as Executive Director to steer the foundation’s mission of driving quantum-secure solutions across decentralized systems.
Integrating post-quantum security into existing blockchains
The foundation’s work is centered on incorporating 01’s patent-pending post-quantum cryptographic technology directly into blockchain infrastructure. Rather than focusing on building a new Layer 1 blockchain, qLABS has adopted an integration-based strategy aimed at upgrading the security of existing and widely used blockchain networks. This approach is intended to provide immediate applicability, scalability, and adoption without requiring users to migrate to unfamiliar systems.
The organizations emphasized that as quantum computing capabilities expand, digital wallets, smart contracts, and crypto transactions face increased vulnerability. qLABS has been established to proactively address these threats and will act as a development hub for solutions that can withstand quantum attacks.
qLABS, in alliance with @01quantuminc and led by @tonyguoga and @adajonuse , is bringing quantum-resistant infrastructure to leading blockchains.

Roadmap and key initiatives
qLABS outlined a roadmap that seeks to combine infrastructure upgrades with educational efforts to increase awareness around quantum preparedness in the blockchain space. The foundation intends to position itself as a market leader by rolling out practical tools while also encouraging the broader Web3 ecosystem to adopt post-quantum solutions.
Among the core initiatives under development are:
-
Creation of quantum-resistant wallets tailored for both individuals and institutions
-
Deployment of wrapped, quantum-resistant tokens across leading ecosystems including Solana, Ethereum, Bitcoin, and Hyperliquid
-
Development of infrastructure to support stablecoins that can operate securely in a post-quantum environment
The partnership with 01 Communique reflects a shared commitment to embedding enterprise-level quantum security within the crypto space. The effort aims not only to protect Web3 systems from future threats but also to establish the groundwork for their continued growth in the quantum computing era.
By taking a proactive approach, qLABS and 01 intend to ensure that decentralized technologies can remain secure and resilient as the industry approaches the onset of quantum capabilities, often referred to as Q-Day. Their strategy of combining patented cryptographic advancements with practical blockchain integration seeks to safeguard crypto from risks that have long been discussed but are now increasingly pressing.
