Bitcoin-Web (BTC-W) represents an early-stage, experimental digital utility token dedicated to advancing research and development within blockchain technology’s evolving landscape. Through strategic partnerships, notably with ContraQ©, and active participation in the decentralization, DeFi, and Web-3 movements, BTC-W aims to leverage a diverse array of digital and real-world assets. Its ambitious mission extends beyond becoming a highly utilitarian cryptocurrency to pioneering a first-to-market, NIST-acknowledged quantum-safe blockchain and native coin. While this remains a potentially unprecedented goal, BTC-W holders may benefit from some level of convertibility and/or transferability should it be realized. It is important to note that BTC-W operates without a marketing budget or celebrity endorsements, relying instead on its inherent utility and the organic adoption by its ecosystem’s users.
THE QUANTUM THREAT
We are genuinely enthusiastic about the future of cryptography, distributed ledgers, decentralization, Web-3, their inherent immutability, and the empowerment they have already delivered to many. We firmly believe that blockchain technology is in its nascent stages, poised to unlock vast possibilities – from revolutionizing mediums of exchange to establishing irrefutable ownership verification. It holds the potential to uphold liberty by mitigating financial overreach, such as the kind witnessed through irresponsible, unilateral money printing – a de facto taxation without representation, effectively diminishing the wealth of a nation’s people through unauthorized and undemocratic monetary supply dilution. This conviction is a significant driving force behind our endeavors.
However, while we look towards the future with optimism and dedicated effort, we also perceive a critical concern that seems largely unnoticed or undiscussed. This issue, in our view, poses an impending threat to those who choose to ignore it, or conversely, an extraordinary opportunity for those who are strategically positioned. This is yet another reason for our diligent work. We firmly believe that traditional Bitcoin faces a serious threat. The “monster voice” in our homepage video and the imagery of nuclear missiles targeting a “house of cards” bearing Bitcoin’s “B” are indeed intentionally dramatic, and we believe, warranted. Rest assured, we will explain this without resorting to overly technical jargon.
While a select group of Bitcoin’s core developers are exploring potential strategies to safeguard Bitcoin against the quantum era, its foundational architecture, being the first cryptocurrency, presents a unique vulnerability. Specifically, the unfortunate convergence of its programmatic structures, from wallet seed (password) generation to the encryption method of the Bitcoin ledger itself, creates what we believe is a critical and potentially existential risk.
HOW EXACTLY?
The underlying issue is surprisingly straightforward. Let’s begin with Bitcoin wallets.
DID YOU KNOW?
Bitcoin wallet addresses inadvertently reveal information about their private keys! This is not a fictional scenario. Within the cryptocurrency community, this is known as a derivation process. The wallet address is derived from the 12 or 24-word “seed phrase,” which is essentially the private key or, in simpler terms, the password. Aspiring Bitcoin hackers face only one significant hurdle: the computational intensity required to reverse this derivation process – to deduce the private key from the public address.
BITCOIN’S QUANTUM VULNERABILITY
The derivation process, while computationally intensive for current technology, relies on cryptographic algorithms that are theoretically vulnerable to sufficiently powerful quantum computers. The advent of practical quantum computing poses a significant threat to these foundational cryptographic methods.
BTC-W: A QUANTUM-RESILIENT APPROACH
Operating on the Solana blockchain, BTC-W, through its partnership with ContraQ, is specifically engineered to support critical cryptographic resilience, emerging blockchain infrastructure, quantum-migration modeling, and decentralized identity tooling. This includes dedicated research, development, and implementation of these advanced technologies. The holding of BTC-W and its associated ecosystem transactions are exclusively intended to fund the advancement of these, alongside several other high-impact, high-disruption potential applications.
IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER
It is crucial to understand that BTC-W is not designed nor intended for use as a financial product and is not a registered investment vehicle. Consistent with its strictly defined “utility-only” function, holding BTC-W does not imply any promise of profits, equity, rights, or claims.
As a matter of policy, no investment or trading value is promoted or otherwise disseminated. Therefore, BTC-W is not intended for profit-seeking through resale. BTC-W is a very early-stage, experimental ecosystem token and, as such, may lack the typical liquidity dynamics and established protocols inherent in registered investment products and more actively traded exchange-based assets. At the time of this white paper’s creation, BTC-W price movements and liquidity levels primarily reflect the development team’s experimentation with liquidity pool mechanics and market dynamics, including exploratory liquidity concentrations, tick arrays, and buy/sell activities. These include both past and future adjustments to liquidity pool dynamics, which inherently affect the circulating token supply as we investigate the potential for future offerings to include decentralized exchange (DEX) platform services.
The BTC-W token represents the integration of both digital and real-world infrastructure currently under development. Notably, considering the recent $1,500,000 sale of the Web-3 domain “paradigm.eth” on the Ethereum blockchain, the BTC-W/ContraQ founders possess a portfolio of premium Web-3 top-level domains (TLDs) such as “.e-pay,” “.web-3,” and “.omni-chain,” among others. Each TLD offers virtually infinite divisibility and potential for programmatic web traffic flows, token-gated real estate applications, custom web development services, and more. However, it is essential to emphasize that none of the aforementioned are promised as entitlements, inherent shared interests of ownership, or as beneficially dedicated to holders of the token itself in any way whatsoever.
Purpose
BTC-W serves as the fundamental access layer to a growing ecosystem of Web-3-native services. Rather than functioning as a speculative asset, its role is to streamline access, governance participation, and early integration into:

Disclosure
BTC-W is not a financial instrument and should not be interpreted as an investment. No returns, rights, or guarantees are offered or implied. It is a utility token for experimental infrastructure access and interaction. Potential participants should thoroughly understand the project’s scope and inherent risks before acquiring BTC-W.
