Abelian
What is the project about? Abelian is a Layer 1 blockchain system that is quantum-resistant and privacy-preserving. Quantum-resistant means that Abelian’s cryptographic systems can defend against attacks launched by powerful quantum computers in the future. Privacy-preserving means that Abelian has the privacy coin ABEL, which can be used with full privacy, privacy with accountability, or privacy at a pseudonymous level. What makes your project unique? This is the world’s first blockchain system that is both post-quantum and privacy-preserving. In addition, Abelian’s security and privacy assurances are both mathematically proven. This is also the world’s first provably secure blockchain system, with both its security and privacy mathematically reduced to certain well-known quantum-resistant hard problems. Abelian’s lattice-based post-quantum cryptosystems are based on CRYSTALS-Dilithium and Kyber, both of which were selected by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the first batch of post-quantum cryptographic (PQcrypto) national standards. This symbolizes the mass adoption of these PQcrypto primitives by federal agencies and the rest of the world to replace existing elliptic curve cryptosystems. History of your project. The genesis block was created on 17 Apr 2022 12:23:20 GMT. Evidence can be found in the Network Explorer: https://explorer.abelian.info What’s next for your project? Open-source by the end of 2023. Migration from PoW to PoS by the end of 2024. What can your token be used for? Store of Value, Gas
