The chain built to
outlast quantum.
Lattica keeps Bitcoin Core's battle-tested design and replaces the cryptography a quantum computer would break — ML-DSA-44 signatures, an ML-KEM-768 encrypted network, and SHA3-256d GPU mining.
Quantum-safe end to end
Ed25519 and ECDSA fall to Shor's algorithm on a large enough quantum computer. Lattica removes them entirely — coins and the wire are protected by NIST-standardized post-quantum cryptography.
ML-DSA-44
Every coin is locked with CRYSTALS-Dilithium (FIPS 204). No ECDSA, no secp256k1 anywhere in the tree.
ML-KEM-768
The encrypted v2 P2P transport uses CRYSTALS-Kyber (FIPS 203) key agreement — on by default. The wire is quantum-safe too.
SHA-3 everywhere
Consensus hashing is SHA3-256 (Keccak, FIPS 202) — block & tx IDs, Merkle trees and the proof-of-work, one primitive.
SHA3-256d, GPU
A double SHA3-256 over a standard 80-byte header. A portable OpenCL miner ships in-tree — NVIDIA, AMD, Intel.
Fair launch
No premine, no ICO, no dev tax, no masternodes. The genesis output is provably unspendable. Every coin is mined.
Bitcoin Core
UTXO ledger, Script, full-node validation, HD wallet — the parts that already work, kept intact.
Specifications
Download & run a node
Every archive ships the GUI wallet, node daemon, CLI, offline tools and the GPU miner.
Verify your download against SHA256SUMS · build from source.
Mine in three commands
Start a node, make an address, point the OpenCL miner at it — it authenticates to your node automatically.
# 1 · start a full node ./latticad -daemon # 2 · create a wallet and an address for the reward ./lattica-cli createwallet miner ./lattica-cli getnewaddress # -> lta1... # 3 · GPU-mine to it ./lattica-miner -address=lta1...your...address
Bootstrapped by DNS seeds in the US, UK and Asia. Full build & mining docs live in the repository.
