Pera Wallet 7.0

Quantum Accounts

Quantum computers can’t break crypto today, but they will. Pera Wallet lets you protect your assets now, before it becomes a problem.

Quantum Accounts use FALCON-1024, a post-quantum signature standard that uses a different type of math than traditional crypto wallets. You can create a new Quantum Account from scratch, or upgrade an existing one and keep the same address and history.

Algorand supports post-quantum accounts at the protocol level, and Pera makes it as simple as tapping Add Quantum Account.
