Key Utilities of $qONE at Launch

Hedge against quantum attacks With the threat of Q-Day approaching, $qONE is emerging as one of a few truly quantum-resistant tokens to protect the value on-chain.

Transaction fee payments for B2C users $qONE is designed to be a payment method to enable quantum-protection via qVAULT technology (via QFA, Quantum Factor Authentication with an additional pair of keys based on Falcon (FN-DSA), NIST certified cryptography). Every time a user locks or unlocks assets in qVAULT, a fee is charged for this activity. While $qONE tokens can be protected for free forever, protecting other tokens, starting with HYPE on HyperEVM, and later Ethereum and USDT/USDC on Ethereum, costs a small fee.

Bulk transaction fees payments for B2B clients $qONE is required to cover quantum-resistant transaction fees for B2B qVAULT clients' integration purposes

Access to qONE Security Protocol A specific amount of $qONE will be required for staking to enable access to qONE Security Protocol in order to integrate qVAULT. These are the main utilities of $qONE staking:

  • unlock QFA feature

  • possible slashing for misconduct (missing security updates, violating protocol rules, submitting invalid proofs)

  • on-chain economic alignment

Protocol Governance $qONE holders will be able to vote on protocol upgrades, fee structure changes, security upgrades and other related qONE Security Protocol governance questions.

Token Buybacks In cases where direct payments in $qONE are limiting tech accessibility or practical application, the fees will be collected in other crypto currencies or fiat. The proceeds will then be used for token buybacks.
