    Category Labs introduces Quantum Cadence, a post-quantum consensus protocol designed for high performance without relying on signatures or quorum certificates for safety and liveness.
    Category Labs @category_xyz
    Today we are releasing Quantum Cadence, a post-quantum version of Cadence, our consensus protocol with multiple concurrent proposers. Quantum Cadence uses no quorum certificates, and its safety and liveness do not depend on signatures. Most modern consensus protocols, Cadence included, rely heavily on signatures and quorum certificates, which a large-scale quantum computer could forge. Simply replacing today's signatures with post-quantum ones would make certificates too large for every validator to send around in a high-performance blockchain. Quantum Cadence instead draws on Forget-IT, a recent signature-free consensus protocol co-developed by researchers at Category Labs. Quantum Cadence still keeps the overall architecture and core guarantees of Cadence, so our Cadence prototype was easy to carry over: an AI was able to adapt it to Quantum Cadence in a few hours, and an early prototype now runs on an internal test network. We designed Quantum Cadence to be practical for a high-performance blockchain. In our simulations, its latency is similar to Cadence's, and it scales better with the number of proposers. Interactive explainer: Full paper: Joint work by @MohammadMJalal1, @TobiasKlenze, and @komasito55

    Privacy and compliance don’t have to be opposites. @gm_usi from @TACEO_IO explains how Merces handles both. Before a private payment settles, it can run compliance checks against sanction lists, blocklists, and AML requirements through an integrated compliance engine. Only transactions that pass those checks are allowed to settle.

    Privacy isn’t just a unique selling point anymore. It’s becoming a core requirement for public chains that want to attract serious institutions. @gm_usi from @TACEO_IO explains why institutional adoption changes the equation: banks and other large players need privacy to be addressed before they can comfortably operate on public rails. That’s also why TACEO launched Merces with Monad as one of its launch partners.

    RT @category_xyz: Check out Tree-BTE 🌳, our new tree-based approach to designing batched threshold encryption (BTE), the cryptographic tool for encrypted mempools. Tree-BTE can be instantiated with different cryptographic hardness assumptions to yield different properties. For example, with a lattice-based hardness assumption, we get a post-quantum secure BTE scheme with >100x faster decryption than prior lattice-based schemes. Instantiations based on other assumptions (such as DDH, DCR, LWR) are also possible. Check out our paper on eprint.

    Public blockchains are transparent by design. @gm_usi from @TACEO_IO explains why that becomes a problem for institutions moving serious capital onchain: balances, transactions, counterparties, and activity can all be traced. The opportunity is bringing privacy to public chains without giving up the liquidity, users, and openness that make them valuable in the first place.

    The most important thing is still simple: build something people actually want to use. @danielvf puts it well: you don’t need to make millions of people happy on day one. Start by making a dozen people really happy with what you built. If you can do that, there are probably more people like them.

    Your first users probably won’t magically find you. @pareen’s advice: DM 200 people, talk to everyone who replies, and bring the early believers into one group chat. Listen closely, ship what they ask for, and keep the conversation active.
