The first post-quantum launchpad that is long today and short on Q-Day.
Q-Day is the morning a quantum computer works out a private key from a public one.
physical qubits to break the key behind a Hyperliquid account
2022, University of Sussex. An attack that runs for a full day.
The estimate keeps falling. The machine does not exist yet.
The largest key ever broken on quantum hardware has 15 bits, and that result is disputed. A Hyperliquid key has 256. Google and Cloudflare have still set 2029 as their own deadline to finish moving off these keys, because the sum changed.
Hyperliquid already has your public key on record.
Accounts sign with secp256k1, the curve under Bitcoin and Ethereum. Every order, approval and withdrawal you sign reveals the public key that belongs to it. That key is the only input Shor's algorithm needs.
held by the 500 largest accounts on Hyperliquid's own leaderboard. Accounts on Hyperliquid sign with this curve.
A Q-Hype account has no elliptic-curve key to find.

A real Falcon-512 key made in your browser. Nothing leaves this page. The drawing is the signature: one dot per byte, larger for a higher value.
elliptic-curve keys
The account is a contract on HyperEVM with a Hyperliquid balance and no private key, so Shor's algorithm has nothing to work on.
byte lattice signature
You control it with Falcon, the lattice scheme NIST selected for post-quantum signatures. The contract checks every signature on-chain before it moves anything.
trading key, then it is gone
Orders go out under a key that cannot withdraw and that Hyperliquid stops honouring after five minutes. The fastest published attack takes nine.
Current key -
Hyperliquid's validators still sign with elliptic curves. That part is Hyperliquid's to migrate, and your account does not have to wait for it.
Launch a universe.
Your coin launches on pump.fun. Its creator fees fund a sealed Hyperliquid account, and that account holds two positions, one for today and one for Q-Day. Slide between the two worlds to split the capital until a canary falls.
Eight wallets are watched for the morning it happens.
They hold Bitcoin behind public keys anyone can read. The 135-bit wallet was emptied in July 2026, which is within reach of classical machines. Each five extra bits is about six times harder. A coin flips the moment a wallet of 150 bits or more moves, or two of the Satoshi-era coins do.
The Q-Day position, priced live.
Short Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana against long Quantinuum, IBM and Google, equal weight, on Hyperliquid's own markets. A hedge costs money while nothing happens, which is why your split decides how much of it a coin carries before the flip.
