Post-Quantum Blockchain Dialogue 2026
PQBD turns three this year, and we're proud to be bringing it to Bitcoin Asia Week! 🎉
We started PQBD when quantum risk was still a fringe topic. Abelian was built for this from day one, which is why we kept the conversation going while most of the industry looked away.
This year the room is BITCOIN-FIRST, and it includes cryptographers, regulators and wealth managers who are doing the actual work.

About Abelian
Abelian is a post-quantum Layer 1 blockchain, built to protect transactions, assets and data against adversarial quantum attacks — with privacy designed in rather than bolted on. Rather than retrofitting quantum resistance onto classical cryptography, Abelian is lattice-based from the ground up, with mainnet live since April 2022.
