Quantum Bridge
A cross-chain bridge design that signs FRAC transfers with CRYSTALS-Dilithium-3 (ML-DSA-65, NIST Level 3) post-quantum signatures. Not yet operational — the figures below are design parameters, not live network metrics.
How PQC Would Secure the Bridge
Classical bridges rely on ECDSA, which quantum computers are expected to break. FractalAI's bridge design signs transfers with lattice-based post-quantum cryptography.
Dilithium-3 Signatures
Bridge validator signatures use CRYSTALS-Dilithium-3 (ML-DSA-65, FIPS-204, NIST Level 3) — the same scheme that signs every block on the FractalAI chain in production. Forging a signature is computationally infeasible even for a quantum adversary.
ML-KEM Key Exchange (in development)
ML-KEM (Kyber, FIPS-203) key encapsulation for encrypted validator transport is in active development in our PQC lab — not yet wired. Today’s protection is ML-DSA-65 (Dilithium) signing.
Hybrid Verification
On EVM chains, classical ECDSA multisig verifies on-chain. Off-chain, Dilithium-3 signatures provide quantum-resistant attestation. (P2P transport still uses classical Noise/X25519.)
