The QRL Ecosystem

Tools, wallets, explorers, nodes, and projects across the Quantum Resistant Ledger, for both the current QRL 1.x mainnet and QRL 2.0.

Last updated: July 14, 2026

🏛️Official Core (QRL 1.x, current mainnet)

The proof-of-work mainnet, live since June 2018, secured by XMSS hash-based signatures.

⛏️Mining (QRL 1.x)

QRL 1.x uses the RandomX (rx/0) CPU-friendly algorithm (the same family as Monero), so standard miners like XMRig work. There is no official pool; the ones below are independent. Mining ends when QRL 2.0 mainnet (proof-of-stake) replaces the proof-of-work chain, so factor that into any hardware plans.
