The total number of post-quantum transactions is steadily climbing, having already reached the 250,000 mark! ⚛️ In a short span of only 4 days since @PeraAlgoWallet launched native PQ accounts, users have utilized Falcon-1024 to sign more than 250K transactions across the Algorand network.
Please keep in mind that this figure exclusively reflects native PQ accounts and does not factor in State Proofs. We consider this early milestone to be merely the beginning of our journey.
The milestone of 250,000 post-quantum transactions has been reached, and the total continues to climb! ⚛️
In the brief span of 3 days since native PQ accounts were introduced on @PeraAlgoWallet, there have been 250K+ transactions successfully signed with Falcon-1024 across Algorand.
It is worth noting that this impressive statistic reflects native PQ accounts exclusively, as State Proofs are not factored into this current count.
Many of you have been requesting updates, so we are pleased to share the newest information regarding Rocca directly from @LoafPickle. This technology has officially launched and is currently driving active applications. As the inaugural releases, AC2 Wallet and Pera Wallet 7.0 represent the initial pair of products developed upon Algorand's white-label wallet framework. Furthermore, you can anticipate the arrival of additional products utilizing this foundation in the future.
Even before the release of GTA 6, native post-quantum accounts were successfully launched on the Algorand network. When it comes to delivering impressive updates, it is safe to say that Algorand has proven itself to be the genuine rockstar.
Currently, we grant agents the authority to distribute funds and deploy code, only to authorize these major actions with a casual thumbs up inside a messaging interface. This informal approval process introduces a critical vulnerability because it simply cannot be authenticated. AC2 eliminates this weak point by transforming every single approval into a verifiable signature generated right from your own device. Give AC2 a try today.
Data provided by @tokenterminal indicates that Algorand currently ranks as the #2 blockchain for agentic transfer volume over the past 30 days. Through the use of x402, AI agents have already relocated $244K in stablecoins. The exciting news is that we are still in the very early phases of this development, as x402 is merely beginning its journey on the Algorand network.
Get ready for an interactive Algorand community AMA taking place on Reddit on the 26th of August. During the event, your questions will receive live answers from our dedicated team members @marcvl, @jannotti, @LoafPickle, @wj_beaumont, and @fredestante.
We are thrilled to congratulate @1to3carbon on the successful launch of their blockchain-based registry, an initiative powered by Algorand and created in collaboration with the Sustainable Business Council NZ. This important project aims to speed up the transition to low-emission freight across New Zealand.
Gathering many of the most ambitious, sustainability-minded companies in New Zealand, SBC represents 125+ businesses that collectively account for $175B in combined turnover and provide around 275,000 jobs.
By allowing verified emissions reductions to be formally recognized and traded, the new registry establishes fresh incentives for organizations to adopt cleaner transport solutions. This collaboration stands as yet another fantastic example of @Algorand enabling meaningful, real-world impact.
The recently launched Agentic Payments dashboard from @tokenterminal currently monitors four specific blockchain networks. Those platforms are Base, Algorand, Polygon, and Solana. Continue reading to discover how these chains stack up against one another when it comes to the essential infrastructure metrics that drive agentic payments.
The community has just officially voted in the Algorand v5.0.0 update, which integrates post-quantum accounts directly at the protocol level. What makes this development especially exciting is that Google and Coinbase had already recognized Algorand as a leading blockchain in the post-quantum race, and they made those statements before either organization had even seen this specific upgrade.
The highly anticipated release of Algorand v5.0.0 has officially arrived. This launch represents one of the most extensive protocol upgrades to date for Algorand, and the community response has been outstanding. In a span of less than 4 days, over 1.5K node runners successfully updated their systems to back this monumental transition.
Network participants can now take advantage of several major enhancements introduced in this version. The update fully integrates native post-quantum accounts alongside a new structure for resource-based fees. Furthermore, the system now enables developers to deploy bigger, more powerful smart contracts.

Achieving true post-quantum security requires much more than simply swapping out an existing signature scheme for a new alternative. The real objective is to develop a flexible protocol capable of adapting seamlessly as the field of cryptography continues to advance. Algorand has made this forward-thinking concept the foundation of its post-quantum roadmap, ensuring that crypto agility remains an essential part of their strategy. Read the thread below to explore this further.
Anyone eager to learn more about quantum cryptography should keep an eye out for Algorand Chief Scientific Officer @ChrisPeikert, who has three speaking engagements lined up this month. His schedule begins on Aug 16 with a presentation at CLAW during @IACR_News Crypto 2026. He will subsequently deliver another talk on Aug 20 at Crypto 2026. To wrap up the month, he is slated to speak at SAC on Aug 26.
The first day of @WeAreDevs is off to a fantastic start, with developers completely filling the Algorand booth. In addition to the great turnout, @SilentRhetoric, our Sr. Director of Integrations and Dev Tooling, delivered an insightful presentation. During his session, he detailed exactly how x402 and Algorand are actively making the future of agentic commerce a reality.
A native financial layer for the web is truly essential today. Software applications must have the capacity to process automated billing, while artificial intelligence agents require seamless methods to compensate one another. To help meet this demand, complete integration for Algorand is now actively available. You will find this comprehensive support implemented throughout every x402 facilitator, as well as across all official packages and demo pages. Feel free to start creating your next project using the resources provided below.
The total volume of USDC seamlessly transferred into and out of the Algorand ecosystem through @Allbridge_io has officially surpassed the $1M threshold. During the month of March, the specific pathway originating from Base and ending on Algorand proved to be the preferred choice among users. It is truly exciting to observe genuine liquidity actively flowing between various blockchain networks.
In the newest edition of Solutions That Scale, we had a wonderful conversation with @SEWAFed, which proudly stands as the largest women's union in India with a membership of 3.7M+ workers.
By integrating Algorand, SEWA has introduced a digital health passport designed to secure and verify essential documents for women workers. This technology empowers these individuals by granting them full autonomy over their personal records, encompassing vital areas such as housing, pension, insurance, childcare, and healthcare.
An impressive 5,500+ women have already accessed this innovative tool.
Please mark your calendars for April 21st and participate in the upcoming Algorand Community Call. Broadcasted live on both X and YouTube, this gathering will provide everyone with the most recent news and developments from across the @Algorand ecosystem. In addition, we are very excited to welcome @TxnLab, who will be joining the conversation as our special guests.
In India, 87% of micro-enterprises owned by women remain excluded from accessing formal credit. The newest episode of Solutions That Scale highlights how @MannDeshiOrg is stepping in to solve this exact problem.
By utilizing @Algorand, the organization is building an accessible on-chain credit score to empower these business owners. The initiative is already making a clear impact, with 600 successfully onboarded and the issuance of 500+ loans.
