Quantus is preparing for the launch of its first mainnet, codenamed Bell — a milestone that brings post-quantum cryptographic signatures to a live Proof-of-Work network. For miners and node operators, the runway to genesis is the moment to get hardware, wallets, and expectations in order.

Why post-quantum matters now

Most chains today secure funds with elliptic-curve signatures that a sufficiently large quantum computer could one day break. Quantus is built from the ground up around quantum-resistant primitives, so the network does not have to be retrofitted under pressure on “Q-Day.”

What to prepare before genesis

• Review the official node documentation and sync a testnet node.
• Confirm your mining hardware meets the recommended specifications.
• Back up your post-quantum keys using the official tooling.

We will keep tracking the road to Bell here in the newsroom as the genesis date firms up.
