Introducing Quantum: Connecting Worlds, Securing Futures

TL;DR: Quantum, built by Astro Labs, is a secure and transparent portal connecting Arweave and AO. It introduces wrapped Arweave (wAR) on AO, allowing users to enjoy AO rewards and apps while maintaining their position as an AR holder.

Join the invite-only closed beta to help shape the future of cross-chain liquidity and decentralized finance on AO. 

In the rapidly evolving AO ecosystem, a critical challenge has emerged: how can users safely and securely leverage their Arweave (AR) token liquidity within the growing array of decentralized applications (dApps) on AO? As the AO ecosystem expands to include decentralized exchanges (DEXs), lending markets, and NFT platforms, the need for seamless liquidity transfer between Arweave and AO has become paramount. Meet Quantum, the cutting-edge portal connecting Arweave and AO.

Announcing Wrapped Arweave by Astro

We're excited to introduce wrapped Arweave (wAR) on AO. Built on institutional-grade infrastructure, this innovation allows you to bring your liquidity to AO by moving Arweave (AR) through Quantum. wAR offers the best of both worlds: you'll continue accruing AO rewards while enjoying AO apps, all while maintaining your rights as an AR holder. This approach strengthens our ecosystem and contributes to the growth of the entire network. By adopting wAR, you're not just using AO - you're part of a movement that's redefining how we interact with decentralized platforms. Join us in this powerful new AO experience that doesn't compromise on AR's inherent benefits, as we work together to build a more robust and versatile blockchain ecosystem.

At the core of Quantum and wAR are our three pillars:

1. Transparency: We believe in full visibility. Every transaction, every operation is open for our community to see and understand on our proof of reserves page. 
2. Security: Utilizing advanced MPC custodial infrastructure, we protect assets with the same rigor demanded by top financial institutions.
3. Trust: From testnet to AO mainnet, we're inviting the community to join our journey, ensuring that trust is not just promised, but earned every step of the way.

Currently, we're launching a closed beta with select ecosystem partners. After this testing period, we'll open a public beta on AO Testnet.
