The Crypto Company (OTCID: CRCW) announced that its Frame testnet is now live in private beta, marking a significant step toward a quantum-resistant, interoperable Layer 1 blockchain. According to the announcement, the testnet has already processed over 7 million quantum-resistant test transactions, demonstrating early technical traction. The news matters because today's blockchain landscape is fragmented, with separate economies and reliance on bridges for cross-chain transfers. Frame aims to connect these ecosystems into a single network, potentially reducing friction for businesses, traders, and AI agents that operate across chains.
Frame is designed to be quantum-resistant from its genesis block, with transactions signed using ML-DSA-87, the highest-security level of NIST's post-quantum digital signature standard (FIPS 204), which is based on CRYSTALS-Dilithium. This means Frame wallets are intended to avoid migration even as quantum computing advances, unlike older chains that may need to move users to new wallets if quantum threats materialize. "Frame's testnet going live is a real milestone, and I am excited about how far the team has come and what Frame is going to be," said Ron Levy, Chief Executive Officer of TCC. "It is amazing to watch transactions flowing on-chain and see people lighting up when they experience for themselves what this platform really unlocks."
The network is also built for speed, with settlement designed to occur in under two seconds. One signature is intended to move value from one chain to another, settled by Frame's own validators, eliminating third-party bridges that hold assets. Transactions are designed not to wait in a public queue, which closes the opening for front-running. "We set out to build a Layer 1 that is quantum-resistant from genesis, and now we have one, designed for settlement in under two seconds," said Sean Docherty, Chief Blockchain Officer of TCC. "That combination lets people and agents move across chains without waiting, and without worrying about tomorrow's threats."
The private testnet phase includes post-quantum transactions, Frame Wallet, Frame Names, and a decentralized exchange (DEX). Later phases on Frame's roadmap include a mainnet launch, cross-chain unified liquidity, and the ability for individuals and businesses to build their own applications on top of Frame, reaching users and transaction volume from every connected chain. For the Long Beach and surrounding California area, this development signals ongoing innovation in blockchain infrastructure, with potential implications for local businesses exploring cross-chain solutions and quantum-safe digital assets.
Builders, traders, and anyone interested in Frame can join the waitlist at the recently updated https://frame.community to be notified when a testnet invitation is ready. Invitations will be sent to waitlist members as they become available. More information about The Crypto Company is available at www.thecryptocompany.com.
