FAQ — Frequently Asked Questions
🔒 What makes QBridge quantum-secure?
QBridge uses CRYSTALS-Dilithium and Kyber, two NIST-standard post-quantum algorithms. These replace vulnerable ECDSA and RSA signatures used in traditional bridges. Even if a quantum computer existed today, QBridge’s cryptographic core is resistant by design.
🌍 How does QBridge handle jurisdiction-based compliance?
Each transfer checks:
The user's jurisdiction (via zkKYC or attestation)
The asset’s whitelist/blacklist rules
Regional transfer restrictions (e.g. U.S. investor bans)
This is enforced on-chain through smart policies — not just in the frontend.
📡 What metadata travels with each RWA token?
Every bridged asset can carry:
Jurisdiction + license IDs
Ownership rights and tenancy tags
Oracle-bound valuation snapshots
Compliance flags (e.g. “retired carbon credit”)
This metadata is preserved and verifiable across chains.
🧠 Is the AI engine deterministic?
QBridge’s AI models produce probabilistic risk scores based on:
Identity validation
Past transaction behavior
Jurisdictional legality
You can tune enforcement thresholds, but models evolve — making compliance adaptive to real-world law changes.
📜 What audit features are built in?
QBridge includes a zkLedger — a zero-knowledge ledger that logs every mint, burn, lock, and unlock event. Auditors can request access (with user consent) to verify trails without exposing sensitive data.
🪙 Why does $QB have real utility?
$QB is used to:
Pay for bridge transfers and metadata relay
Stake in validator pools
Unlock compliance modules and audit dashboards
Vote on governance decisions and protocol upgrades
Without $QB, you cannot use QBridge as a full feature set.
🔧 How long does integration take?
Typical setup time:
RWA Issuer: ~15 minutes using the wrap SDK
DeFi Protocol: ~10 minutes using API and oracle hooks
Custodian: ~10 minutes to access zkLedger
All integrations are modular and require no smart contract rewrites.
⚖️ Is QBridge compliant with MiCA, GDPR, and HKPDPO?
Yes. QBridge was built to be:
GDPR & HKPDPO privacy-compliant
MiCA-ready via enforceable asset policies and proof-based disclosures
Compatible with regulated tokenization frameworks (e.g. ERC-3643, SPL-RWA)
