Post-quantum, by design
Splendor Quantum is a native Layer-1 blockchain. It uses ML-DSA-65 for accounts, transactions, blocks, and validator votes. ML-DSA-65 is a parameter set of the digital signature standard published by NIST in FIPS 204.
SHA3-256 is used for addresses and ledger commitments. These choices are part of the network architecture from its first block, rather than an optional signature mode layered onto an existing EVM chain.
Quantum resistance rests on the current security assumptions of the algorithms and their implementation. It does not mean immunity from every possible attack.
A new network. A new address.
The Quantum mainnet identifier is splendor-quantum-1. It is distinct from the legacy Splendor EVM mainnet, chain 2691. Quantum uses native REST interfaces rather than Ethereum JSON-RPC.
A Quantum address begins with SQ: followed by 64 hexadecimal characters. A legacy 0x address is not a Quantum destination. Use a Quantum-compatible wallet and always check the network and receiving address before transferring assets.

Explore the network
The public Quantum explorer provides a view of network activity. The technical documentation explains the architecture, network interfaces, and developer tooling. These are the primary destinations for understanding the protocol and following the chain.
The next chapter for SPLD
Splendor Wallet is available on Android and iOS, with support for the Quantum network. A browser extension is also being prepared and is not yet publicly available.
SPLD and SPLV on legacy chain 2691 are planned to migrate to native SPLD on Quantum at a 1:1 ratio. Holders will have 90 days from the publication of the bridge to complete the switch. Publishing this announcement does not start that period.
