Mainnet live · Chain ID 481

The first L1 secured by post-quantum signatures

SciChain pairs classical ECDSA with NIST-standard ML-DSA on every transaction — a fully EVM-compatible blockchain that is already safe for the quantum era.

Why SciChain

Security for the next fifty years

Quantum computers will break ECDSA. SciChain is the working answer — shipped, audited by usage, and running real products.

PQC

Quantum-safe today

Every transaction is co-signed with NIST FIPS 204 ML-DSA — protection against quantum attacks is live on mainnet, not a roadmap item.

Fully EVM-compatible

Deploy any Solidity contract with the tools you already use. MetaMask, Hardhat, ethers — everything just works.

Instant QBFT finality

Blocks are final in ~2 seconds. No reorgs, no probabilistic waiting — ideal for payments and certificates.

Built by scientists

Born from an academic publishing platform, SciChain runs real products: journals, certificates, events, and payments.

Build with us at SciMatic Labs

SCI grants for experiments, research, and apps. We help teams take ideas from prototype to released product on SciChain.
