Our core blockchain testnet will be deployed in September 2018 and following this launch we will be supporting a variety of new DApps in several industries including telecoms, media and real estate
ArQit is setting up a blockchain whereby its Nodes will be able to be equipped with QKD. Initially, these QKD equipped nodes will be able to identify, and securely communicate with, other QKD equipped nodes. Later, it is hoped that QKD keys can be used with new forms of public verification that will replace compromised PKI. These Nodes are therefore highly trusted and Quantum secure. It will take two years to fully build out the satellite network delivering quantum keys
It is not enough that blockchain systems protect their own infrastructure. It is essential for the blockchain industry that the Tier 1&2 telcos who deliver our messages make their own infrastructure secure. Since the ArQit token community has contributed to the establishment of the technology, telcos using the technology for other applications are also invited to do so. It is essential to propagate QKD widely. Therefore telcos are offered exclusive master distribution rights to the QKD technology in return for staking tokens, but must then distribute to all qualifying telcos on a fair and equitable basis.
Advanced Quantum research—ArQit’s quantum keys need to work in tandem with post quantum algorithms for encryption and signature. The ArQit Foundation will immediately begin to source research proposals and collaborate with a wide variety of organizations

Little Phil
Powered by blockchain technology, the little Phil platform is an entirely new way of giving that fixes trust issues with charities using a public ledger, smart contracts and unique digital identities (UDID) to provide givers with the Proof of Need and Proof of Impact required to re-establish trust in giving to charity. Little Phil uses blockchain technology and user experience (UX) designed around a positive psychology framework to allow people to have the oversight, control and emotional connection of a philanthropist, without giving large amounts. People are able to give on their terms through their smartphone and track their giving all the way to the moment it’s received. This will create an engaging experience that makes them genuinely feel the positive impact they have had on their cause. In addition to this, charities will have solutions to their fundraising and exploitation concerns at a much lower cost than they currently incur.

INVERSE
INVERSE is a DeFi based platform that provides an array of smart-contract features with integrated time-based options. Users have the opportunity to speculate on the drop in value of a suite of Defi coins by utilizing the multiple 'tracking vaults' on the platform. XIV, the protocol's native token, is used to unlock these vaults, and then staked within these vaults for no more than 7 days. As their name implies, these vaults track the real-time price movements of select DeFi tokens (i.e. COMP, AAVE, UNI, YFI). After 7 days, if the value of the DeFi asset being tracked has dropped by a certain percentage, the user will gain a significant percentage yield on the amount of XIV held within the tracking vault. If the price of the DeFi asset does not drop in value beyond the predetermined percentage by the end of the 7-day staking period, the user will forfeit a portion of their staked XIV. Rewards will be automatically disbursed to the user’s web3 browser wallet at the end of the 7-day staking period. Ultimately, INVERSE offers users the option to hedge against the volatility of select crypto assets.

Constellation
The Constellation protocol implements a horizontally scalable blockchain architecture known as Extended Trust Chain with a peer to peer layer known as a gossip protocol that can be deployed on a mobile device. Constellation approaches smart contracts with a microservice architecture allowing for highly available services to be chained and composed into distributed applications with just an understanding of each microservice’s SLA (service level agreement) and/or type signature. This architecture ensures high transaction throughput, allowing for consumer grade distributed applications to be built on Constellation.
