[Cryptography] Quillon Graph: A private, post-quantum electronic cash system

[Viktor S. Kristensen]

Following our initial announcement, Q-NarwhalKnight has reached v3.5.0 with 680,000+ lines of Rust, 780,000+ blocks mined, and full production deployment of our four-phase Tor integration. The implementation includes Vanguards-lite guard protection (Proposal 292), traffic shaping against fingerprinting, pluggable bridge transports (obfs4/meek/snowflake), quantum-resistant Tor circuits via Kyber1024, and Dandelion++ transaction privacy. Performance through Tor achieves 48K TPS with 145ms consensus latency and zero IP leakage. We've also deployed a decentralized WASM plugin system with DAG-Knight consensus verification, enabling extensible blockchain functionality with sandboxed execution and dual-signature authentication (Ed25519/Dilithium5).

Our security infrastructure now spans six specialized crates: q-consensus-guard for height-gated mainnet-safe upgrades, q-lattice-guard for RLWE-based post-quantum SNARKs, q-temporal-shield for HSM-backed time-lock encryption (17-of-32 threshold), q-zk-stark for transparent zero-knowledge proofs without trusted setup, q-zk-snark for Groth16/PLONK verification, and q-crypto-advanced for Bulletproofs range proofs. All validation rule changes are block-height gated to prevent consensus failures during network upgrades. The network currently operates with 7+ active miners at 1.5 MH/s, with mainnet launch targeted for February 2026.
