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

Quantler
Quantler is a blockchain for creating, analysing, sharing and running of decentralized structured investment products. Create structured products (such as an ETF) in equities or cryptocurrencies using themes. As there are a lot of the tokenized products being launched (currently over 1 900 available) the structured products for these assets are lacking behind (such as sector-based ETFs). Using Quantler’s blockchain anyone can create structured products (for regular assets such as Equities and cryptocurrencies) and run them on a decentralized network (much like smart contracts). Quantler also allows for regular assets, for this market Quantler’s solution is more flexible and has a lower costs base (targeted for exchanges, family offices and investment managers). The QUANT token’s intrinsic value is dependent on the AUM (asset under management) by the entire network. Quantler is like a Vanguard or BlackRock, but then in the form of a network.
Upcoming
BlockStorage
BlockStorage is a protocol built to connect and abstract all communications with the blockchain, simplifying the user’s life. The current state of cloud storage, with dozens of reports of security issues, the overall perception of lack of privacy, along with the usual high monthly fees calls for a new kind of storage service, one that guarantees data privacy at lower (or no) costs. From those concerns, we envisioned BlockStorage, a storage protocol based on the principles of ease of use and privacy. Built with the casual user in mind, it allows anyone to store and recover any type of file on any existing blockchain, without cost (besides the transaction fee to store the file). BlockStorage leverages blockchain technology to ensure the safest and most transparent storage experience. Our protocol allows users to seamlessly upload files to the blockchain of their choice while taking care of the data encryption and the respective blockchain protocol. And, because of the inherent nature of blockchains, it assures that the data will never be lost. In short, it will store the files for life without any recurring costs.
Upcoming
Plentix
The advent of cryptocurrencies and the tokenized economy makes it possible to re-imagine the entire value chain of consumer, products, and producers from a referral perspective. We present Plentix, a tokenized platform that enables users to refer other users to a business entity and enables business entities to leverage existing APIs for industry specific referrals and allows for safe, secure, trustless value exchange to take place. Unlike other referral platforms, Plentix unleashes the potential of a new global ecosystem to monetize referrals for every stakeholder, from the producer to the consumer.
