01 QUANTUM AND QLABS ANNOUNCE LIVE TRADING OF $QONE, LAYING THE FOUNDATION FOR POST-QUANTUM WEB3 SECURITY

01 Quantum Inc. has held the $qONE Token Generation Event (TGE) on HyperEVM by qLABS. Following the event, $qONE is now trading live on the Hyperliquid decentralized exchange platform.

The $qONE token launch marks a foundational step in the rollout of the qONE security protocol. The token establishes the on-chain and economic framework required for the next phase: activating a quantum lock-unlock mechanism using 01 Quantum's QCW (quantum crypto wrapper) and QDW (quantum DeFi (decentralized finance) wrapper) technologies.

"In traditional security, defenses are deployed before the breach. $qONE applies that same, crucial discipline to Web3 in anticipation of quantum threats," said Antanas Guoga (Tony G), president of qLabs.

qLABS is pursuing a staged deployment strategy aligned with enterprise and government security practices:

• Phase 1: $qONE token launch and protocol foundation;
• Phase 2: integration of quantum circuit breaker using IronCAP, 01 Quantum's NIST-aligned cryptographic engine, combined with zero-knowledge proofs;
• Phase 3: expansion to quantum-resistant authorization for wallets, assets and protocol-level transactions.

Backed by years of extensive research with multiple United States' patents and patent-pending technologies, 01 Quantum provides the cryptographic foundation to the qONE security protocol through IronCAP. This architecture enables incremental adoption of postquantum security without changes to base-layer consensus or disruptive migrations.

"The $qONE TGE is not the end state, it is the starting point," said Andrew Cheung, chief executive officer at 01 Quantum. "It creates the conditions necessary to deploy Q-Day threat protection safely and at scale for existing digital assets without the need of any hard forking or modification of an existing L1 chain."

With the token infrastructure live, the focus now shifts to integrating IronCAP based QCW and QDW technologies into the qONE security protocol, advancing Web3 toward quantum-resilient authorization.
