# Project Eleven post-quantum security development > Live situation record from CLSTR: https://clstr.news/situations/project-eleven-post-quantum-security-development > Updated: 2026-10-21T23:15:58.000Z. Sources: 13. Developments: 5. Project Eleven, a New York-based firm focused on quantum-resistant blockchain infrastructure, has expanded its technical capabilities through the acquisition of Riva Labs. This acquisition integrated Riva Labs’ expertise in post-quantum signatures, multi-party computation, and wallet infrastructure to address security risks posed by future quantum computing. Following this expansion, Project Eleven launched Strongpoint, a custody platform intended to assist institutions in transitioning to post-quantum cryptography. The Zcash Foundation has partnered as an initial development collaborator to ensure the architecture remains adaptable to changing requirements. Project Eleven also announced a partnership with Quantus to integrate the Quantus Network into Strongpoint, targeting network support for the first quarter of 2027 to provide “crypto-agility” for institutional security. In October 2026, Project Eleven entered a development partnership with Relm Insurance to explore how post-quantum security controls can be evaluated within digital asset insurance underwriting. CEO Alex Pruden noted the partnership aims to understand how quantum readiness might influence market risk evaluations. On October 21, 2026, Pruden claimed that quantum computing laboratories are withholding certain research results to prevent public alarm. He suggested that labs have either been directed not to publish specific findings or have chosen to keep them private to avoid causing panic. While Pruden did not name specific laboratories, his remarks align with broader industry concerns regarding the potential for quantum computers to compromise digital signature systems used by blockchain networks. ## Claims - Project Eleven introduced Strongpoint, a flagship custody platform designed for the transition to post-quantum cryptography.
