Quickstart
The Quip protocol is published as open source software on GitHub and GitLab. If you wish to run a node, you can download the desktop node runner on Windows, Linux, or Mac OSX which will guide you through setting up your environment: https://gitlab.com/quip.network/quip-node-manager/-/releases
For more node running options see the Nodes section.
Right now there's not much to do other than mine blocks, generate some quantum-resistant keys through our wallets on Ethereum, Solana, their L2s, and the Bitcoin L2s Arch and Midl, but we are building out the smart contract layer so you can take advantage of the quantum computers too!
You can generate post-quantum keys to prepare for the smart contract layer by using our wallets at account.quip.network or you can use the libraries below.
If you want to understand the structure of what we're building, here's some key diagrams below:
Quip's implementation of various hash algorithms, especially the preferred Winternitz One-Time Signature (WOTS+), is available as a library for rust, c++, typescript, and solidity. If you do not want to use these libraries directly, you can use the interface at account.quip.network.
All Quip Network libraries and contracts are available for review at our Github.
More coming soon
