Post-quantum posture, Consensus blocks are sealed by QBFT proof-of-authority (classical secp256k1 ECDSA, the Classical Address above), with deterministic finality. In addition, every finalised block is independently attested with each validator's ML-DSA-87 (NIST FIPS-204) key, and on-chain ML-DSA-87 and ML-DSA-65 verification is available to applications via precompiles 0x4b58434f00000000000000000000000000000087 and 0x0b. Post-quantum consensus signing, validators sealing blocks with ML-DSA, is on the roadmap. The PQC Address column shows each validator's current attestation key and its parameter set. All four validators attest with ML-DSA-87: node4 from block 4,993,304, node3 from 5,068,112, node2 from 5,068,327 and node1 from 5,068,630. The published key history lists every key, old and new.
