Quantum Coin Whitepapers

The underlying technology behind Quantum Coin is spread across various areas, including Distributed Computing, Blockchains, Cryptography and more. Every major building-block of the Quantum Coin platform has one or more associated whitepapers, that detail the technology used.

Quantum Coin Vision

This paper lays out the vision of the Quantum Coin platform & ecosystem. The vision itself will evolve over time and expand to solve various real-world problems.

Quantum Resistance

This whitepaper goes over quantum resistance in the Quantum Coin blockchain. This important paper explains the reasons why quantum computers are a threat to blockchains. Quantum Computers can break the cryptographic security of blockchains by using Shor's and Grover's algorithm. This whitepaper details how the Quantum Coin blockchain will provide security from such quantum computer threats.

Consensus

An effective consensus scheme is required for a blockchain to function properly, guarding against various problems such as double-spending, malicious validators and 51% attacks. This whitepaper explains the proof-of-stake consensus model of Quantum Coin, while going over the various trade-offs involved. It also briefly talks about a hybrid consensus model that the system may evolve to.

Data Availability

Data Availability is equally important for blockchains in addition to security and consensus. While many blockchain whitepapers discuss security and consensus, many leave out data availability. This whitepaper explains why data availability is critical for blockchains and also goes over both the short term & long term data availability solutions. There is also a first-of-it's-kind time-capsule solution proposed in this whitepaper.

Blockchain Allocation

An important goal of Quantum Coin is to secure the three largest blockchains from quantum computer threats. Bitcoin, Ethereum and Dogecoin use cryptography schemes that can be broken using quantum computers. In addition to this, blockchain platforms have to be well decentralized. Quantum Coin will solve these two problems by forking all these three blockchains along with DogeP tokens. This whitepaper explains the rationale behind this multi-fork effort, the problems it will solve and the allocation model of the Quantum Coin blockchain.

Heisen GameChain

Heisen GameChain is a platform for game publishers and gamers. This initiative covers game contests, game store, global leaderboard, game world and in-game purchases. Heisen is a token that will be created in the QuantumCoin blockchain and is the fundamental part of the Heisen GameChain.
