QuantaPool Is Preparing for QRL 2.0 Mainnet: DigitalGuards Seeks a US Operating Partner
QuantaPool is heading for QRL 2.0 mainnet under a dedicated US operating entity. DigitalGuards is in advanced discussions with a prospective US partner and remains open to further qualified candidates. Here is the role.
QuantaPool currently runs exclusively on the QRL 2.0 testnet; all assets involved are test assets without monetary value and no services are provided (see quantapool.com/legal). This post describes an active business operating role. It is not an offer of securities, an investment opportunity, or a solicitation of investment.
DigitalGuards has spent the past two years building the product stack for QRL 2.0: wallets for web, mobile, desktop, and browser, the ZondScan explorer, a post-quantum dApp connect SDK, the QuantaSwap atomic-swap protocol, and QuantaPool, our liquid staking protocol. Today we are announcing the next step for QuantaPool, and putting our search for its operating partner on the public record.
What QuantaPool is
Running a validator on QRL 2.0 requires 40,000 QRL and the operational skill to keep a node healthy. QuantaPool lowers that barrier: users deposit any amount of QRL, the pool funds validators, and depositors receive stQRL, a token whose QRL value grows with validator rewards. The protocol is live on the QRL 2.0 testnet at quantapool.com, fully open source under GPL-3.0, with a 200-test contract suite. Everything runs with valueless test assets today.
Why a US operating structure
Operating a staking protocol with real value is a serious undertaking: real deposits, validator uptime, user trust, and clear accountability. After reviewing the options, we consider a dedicated US operating entity under genuine, active US management the right home for QuantaPool’s mainnet operations. DigitalGuards remains the owner and builder: the copyright, the brand, and all development stay in-house, and the operating entity runs the service under license from us.
The partner we are looking for
We are in advanced discussions with a prospective US partner, and we remain open to hearing from further qualified candidates. The role, in brief:
- Genuine, active management of the operating entity from the United States: the decisions, the operations, and the accountability
- Validator infrastructure operations with continuous monitoring and incident response
- Custody of operational keys and participation in the protocol’s multisig
- Ownership of the entity’s compliance obligations, together with US counsel
- Solid business standing: entity formation, banking, clean records
This is a working operator role, suited to someone with infrastructure experience and compliance seriousness, ideally from the staking or hosting world. Capital participation is open for discussion, and commercial terms are discussed directly with qualified candidates.
Why we are publishing this
Partly for candidates, and partly for the record. QuantaPool’s development has been public from the first commit, and the search for its operating home belongs to that same public history. When the partnership is signed, this post will get its sequel.
