Root Vault

every solana wallet runs on a key a quantum computer could one day break. we built a vault that runs on hash-based signatures instead. $ROOT

[Root Vault @rootvaultsol]

a big quantum computer could break the key every solana wallet uses today...

so we built root vault: deposit SOL, tokens or NFTs, and nothing leaves without a one-time hash-based signature that says exactly what happens.

free and open source. https://t.co/Jhd4L93cZS

quantum risk isn't only a solana problem.

every big chain signs with an elliptic curve. a hash-based vault only needs SHA-256 on-chain, and most smart contract chains have it.

root vault runs on @solana today. which chain should be next? (bitcoin not possible)😂

[Root Vault @rootvaultsol]

next root vault update is in testing.

signatures that expire. recovery if you lose your words. vaults for the keys that control whole tokens and programs.

existing vaults keep working. more when it ships.

[Root Vault @rootvaultsol]

We are submitting Root and its protocol to the Solana Foundation for approval and Audit. One step closer to bring Root level security to participating Solana wallets by default.

Where does it put us in the Kardeshev scale if we build post quantum resistent solutions like Root @toly https://t.co/dq6VN437sC

[toly 🇺🇸 @toly]

If quantum computing is generalizable and scalable enough to break Satoshi’s stash then we are entering an Information Age that’s equivalent to a level 2 kardeshev civ.

withdraws made easier with the new update all live now https://t.co/6v6p3bkbW1

@rootvaultsol is fkn banging was able to withdraw tokens and all tek is 100% this is millions.

making it better for you guys to withdraw from your vaults live soon

She brought protection

[toly 🇺🇸 @toly]

She is a 256, but not quantum resistant

@elonmusk Quantum computing will challenge how crypto wallets stay secure. ROOT is building for that future: a Solana vault using hash-based signatures designed to resist quantum attacks and keep withdrawals under your control. Open source. No token required. https://t.co/SCZkZMSoZ3

Quantum computing is best done in the permanently shadowed craters on the Moon

[Root Vault @rootvaultsol]

adding here soon

[Root Vault @rootvaultsol]

@toly Not if people use Root https://t.co/dq6VN437sC

[toly 🇺🇸 @toly]

@mert If someone builds a general purpose quantum computer to crack solana, then solana has created tremendous value for the world.

[Root Vault @rootvaultsol]

rpc issue fixed thx guys for patience

[Root Vault @rootvaultsol]

upgrading helius rpc we got a lot of demand to bring quantum to @solana

[Root Vault @rootvaultsol]

All the more reason for Root https://t.co/dq6VN437sC @toly

[toly 🇺🇸 @toly]

Quantum computing has been achieved internally

[Root Vault @rootvaultsol]

post-quantum signatures aren't one thing.

lattice schemes like ML-DSA and Falcon: compact, fast, newer math.
hash-based schemes like SLH-DSA and LMS: bigger, but they rest only on the hash function.

ed25519 for comparison: 64 bytes, and broken by shor.

[Root Vault @rootvaultsol]

Root is here https://t.co/dq6VN437sC for post quantum protection on Solana

@toly

[toly 🇺🇸 @toly]

If quantum computing starts to accelerate, the universes from which it draws energy will attack us back.

[Root Vault @rootvaultsol]

one-time keys run out. a key tree with 1,024 leaves can sign 1,024 times.

the fix is rotation: one signature points the account at a fresh key tree. the address stays the same, nothing has to move, and the last leaf is kept back so rotation is always possible.
