Briefings
Zumo and Quantum Chain signed a Memorandum of Understanding to explore quantum-resilient infrastructure for UK digital assets. The collaboration focuses on safeguarding financial services against future quantum threats, including potential attacks on current encryption standards. The partnership aims to support cryptographic agility and post-quantum security for institutions, with a potential quantum-resistant GBP stablecoin under consideration. Both companies emphasize the need for rapid migration to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) to prevent future decryption capabilities from compromising financial systems.
