BTQ Technologies Corp. (NASDAQ: BTQ) (CBOE CA: BTQ), a quantum technology company, has been named the security partner for MoonPay Korea’s Korean won-backed stablecoin infrastructure, according to an announcement by NEWMEDIAWIRE. The partnership aims to protect the emerging stablecoin ecosystem from future quantum computing threats by implementing post-quantum cryptography (PQC) solutions.
Under the agreement, BTQ will develop a quantum-transition roadmap and conduct a proof of concept of its BTQ Quantum Secure Stablecoin Network (QSSN) with Korean banking institutions. The collaboration will also support quantum-safe security across stablecoin issuance, distribution, wallets, and settlement processes. MoonPay Korea is building infrastructure to connect Korea’s developing stablecoin market to MoonPay’s global network, which serves more than 35 million customers in approximately 180 countries and over 1,500 enterprise clients.
This partnership matters because stablecoins are increasingly integrated into mainstream finance, and the security of their underlying infrastructure is critical. Quantum computers, once sufficiently powerful, could break the classical cryptographic algorithms that currently secure digital assets. By deploying PQC, BTQ and MoonPay Korea are proactively addressing a vulnerability that could otherwise undermine trust in stablecoins and broader digital payment systems. The move positions both companies at the forefront of quantum-safe financial technology, potentially setting a standard for the industry.
The agreement builds on BTQ’s existing collaborations with Korean financial institutions and its commercial agreement with LINE NEXT and Kaia DLT Foundation to deploy QSSN across the Kaia ecosystem. For BTQ, this partnership represents a significant commercial validation of its post-quantum security solutions in the financial sector. For MoonPay Korea, it ensures that its stablecoin infrastructure is resilient against future quantum attacks, which is essential for maintaining user confidence and regulatory compliance.
