The Graph Cryptography & Quantum Risk Profile

Risk: high · Confidence: high · Reviewed: 2026-07-19

Verdict

Profile view: The Graph is not quantum-proof. GRT and indexer operations rely on classical host-chain signatures and operational keys.

This is the Wave 7e network/profile page for The Graph (app).

The Graph indexes blockchain data via indexers and delegators. Quantum risk includes GRT wallets and indexer staking keys.

Protocol utility does not change signature hardness.

Verdict hub: /is-quantum-proof/the-graph. Asset framing: /crypto/grt.

Signatures: ECDSA-secp256k1 for GRT on Ethereum-class deployments, Indexer / delegator operational keys
Hash: Keccak-256 on EVM hosts
Public-key exposure: Token EOAs public; indexers stake and operate with distinct keys.

Classical signatures authorizing GRT value under Shor-class adversaries once public keys are known
Custodial hot wallets and exchange operational keys
Bridges, issuers, or operator sets outside ordinary user wallets
Protocol admin, oracle, or guardian keys

Inventory every key that can move GRT (self-custody, exchange, multisig, protocol roles)
Name the host chain and bridge path for every balance
Document operator/admin sets for L2s and apps
Track ecosystem PQC research; branding is not deployment
Use /assessment and claims methodology pages for program framing

Subgraphs quantum-safe?

Indexing software ≠ PQC token authorization.
