Welcome to Quip Network

Welcome to the Quip Network docs! Here you'll get an overview of all the amazing features Quip offers to help you build cryptocurrency applications secure against quantum computer threats.

The goal of the Quip Network is to offer a seamless, turn-key solution to secure client digital assets against threats from the advent of quantum computers. Users of the Quip Network - wallets, protocols, retail, and institutions - will be able to easily integrate the Quip Protocol into their existing chains and wallets to achieve post-quantum security as an extra layer of defense for their digital assets.

The Quip Network emphasizes both post-quantum and classical security, fully portable and native network deployments, procedural transparency with composability, and complete token fungibility across networks. The network relies on Quantum Unit Interlock Pathways (“QUIPs”), which can link together to create arbitrary contracts and value cascades simultaneously and atomically on multiple networks. A quorum of validators provides additional assurances in case of block reorganizations on interlocked chains, batches together complex transactions, and creates incentives for quantum whitehats to alert the public to vulnerabilities in commonly used cryptographic primitives.
