MyQRLWallet: A Year On, and Everything New for QRL 2.0
When we first introduced our QRL web wallet back in December 2024, the goal was simple: give people a clean, secure way to interact with the QRL 2.0 blockchain and its post-quantum cryptography. A lot has happened since then. MyQRLWallet has grown from a single web app into a full toolkit for the QRL 2.0 ecosystem. Here is a tour of what is new.
A quick note on naming first. What some people still call Zond is simply QRL 2.0, the proof-of-stake, EVM-compatible generation of the Quantum Resistant Ledger. We use QRL 2.0 throughout this post.
A mobile app: live on Android, coming soon to iOS
The biggest change is that MyQRLWallet is no longer web only. The mobile app is live on the Google Play Store today, so Android users can manage their QRL 2.0 assets from their phone, scan dApp connection QR codes, and approve transactions with a PIN or biometrics. The iOS version is on the way and will arrive on the Apple App Store soon. The mobile app shares the same wallet core as the web app, so your keys are handled the same secure way on every platform.
dApp Connect: pair your wallet with any QRL 2.0 dApp
We built QRL Connect, a way to link your wallet to a decentralized application by scanning a QR code on desktop or tapping a deep link on mobile. Once paired, a dApp can ask your wallet to sign messages and send transactions, and you approve each action right inside the app. The whole channel is end to end encrypted with post-quantum cryptography, and your private keys never leave the wallet. If you are a developer, we wrote a separate technical deep dive on how QRL Connect works and how to add it to your own dApp.
Native post-quantum signing
QRL 2.0 secures accounts with ML-DSA-87 (Dilithium), a signature scheme standardized by NIST for the post-quantum era. MyQRLWallet now signs messages and structured (typed) data natively with that same scheme, using SHAKE256 hashing. In plain terms: when a dApp asks you to prove ownership of your address or to authorize an action, the proof itself is quantum resistant, rather than a classical Ethereum-style signature bolted on the side.
Hardened wallet encryption
Security under the hood improved too. Your seed and wallet file are now encrypted with AES-256-GCM and a strong PBKDF2 key derivation, all through the browser’s native WebCrypto engine. This is authenticated encryption, which means tampering is detected, and it runs without freezing the interface while it works.
Create your own tokens
MyQRLWallet includes a token factory. With a few clicks you can deploy your own QRC20 token on QRL 2.0, with no Solidity required. It is a simple way for projects and communities to launch a quantum-safe token of their own.
A growing ecosystem
MyQRLWallet is one piece of a wider set of tools we are building for QRL 2.0:
- ZondScan, our block explorer at zondscan.com, for tracking blocks, transactions, tokens, and verified smart contracts.
- QuantaPool, an experimental (alpha) liquid staking protocol that lets you stake QRL and receive a liquid staking token in return.
- QRL Name Service (QNS), an early, alpha effort to bring human-readable names to QRL 2.0, so you can use a name instead of a long address.
Try it
The web wallet is live at qrlwallet.com, and the Android app is on Google Play now with iOS coming soon. Everything is free and open, and as always, you stay in control of your keys.
