Perpetuals launches quantum-resistant encryption service for financial firms

April 8, 2026 1:20 PM

Perpetuals.com Ltd (NASDAQ: PDC) announced the launch of Quantum-Resilience-as-a-Service, a security offering designed to strengthen encryption systems against potential quantum computing threats.

The service targets financial institutions, trading platforms, payment networks, and enterprise security providers. QRaaS integrates with existing cryptographic systems including RSA, AES, and TLS without requiring system-wide modifications.

The offering strengthens key generation processes by supplying quantum-resilient entropy through dedicated PCIe-based quantum random number generator hardware and software. Deployment options include colocation, managed server environments, and an Entropy-as-a-Service API.

"As quantum computing advances, existing encryption standards are increasingly vulnerable," said Patrick Gruhn, CEO of Perpetuals. "QRaaS enables organizations to strengthen their security immediately, without the need for disruptive changes to existing systems."

The service operates from data centers in Germany and the United States, with built-in controls and monitoring capabilities designed to support regulatory compliance across markets.

Perpetuals cited research from Google Quantum AI indicating that quantum computers could potentially break elliptic curve cryptography used in Bitcoin and Ethereum transactions. The company noted that 6.9 million Bitcoin at current valuations face potential quantum vulnerabilities.

The Tokyo-based fintech company operates an AI-powered trading platform called Kronos X and holds a European Multilateral Trading Facility license with MiFID II, MiCA, DORA, and EMIR compliance.
