Freedom Factory Unveils PQ1, the World's First Post-Quantum Hardware Wallet

Freedom Factory has launched the PQ1, a state-of-the-art hardware wallet designed to be resistant to quantum computing threats. Priced at $179 and shipping in Q4 2026, the PQ1 utilizes the SPHINCS+ hashing algorithm and ERC-4337 smart accounts to enable quantum-proof transactions on Ethereum and EVM-compatible chains. This open-source device aims to provide digital sovereignty against the looming threat of quantum attacks on current cryptographic standards.
