Migrate Smart Contract Wallets to Post-Quantum Keys

Frequently Asked Questions

01.Can I start with an MVP instead of migrating every wallet at once?

Yes. Most operators pilot post-quantum migration on one treasury wallet or one product line first, validate signature verification gas costs and user flow, then roll out to the rest of the fleet over 8 to 12 weeks. A full-fleet cutover on day one is the highest-risk path and is not recommended.

02.What does a post-quantum wallet audit cost?

A focused audit of a smart contract wallet's signature verification and key rotation logic typically runs 15,000 to 45,000 dollars depending on wallet complexity and whether social recovery or multisig modules are in scope. Full protocol audits with formal verification cost more and take 4 to 8 weeks.

03.Do I need a dedicated cryptography team to run this migration?

No. Smart contract wallets built on account abstraction can add a post-quantum signature module without an in-house cryptography team, provided the implementation partner has completed at least one live NIST FIPS 203 or FIPS 204 integration and the module has passed independent audit.
