Install QAN XLINK Docker

Learn how to install QAN XLINK post-quantum cross-signer.

Prerequisites

Note:

  • Ensure you succeeded with Step 1. Add testnet to Wallet
  • Ensure you installed Docker on your desktop.

QAN XLINK a custom cross-signature protocol. This protocol enables seamless integration of every Ethereum-compatible wallet (such as MetaMask and Trust Wallet) with quantum-resistant signature-capable keypairs.

  1. Make sure Docker is running on your device.

    It is enough if Docker runs in the background.

  2. Open Terminal / Command Prompt on your device.
  3. Copy-paste the following command in Terminal/Command Prompt and press Return/Enter key.

    docker pull qanplatform/xlink
    docker run -d --name=xlink --restart=always --volume=xlink:/xlink qanplatform/xlink
    
  4. Copy-paste the following command in Terminal/Command Prompt and press Return/Enter key.

    docker logs xlink
    
  5. Your new address is ready!

    You just generated your new wallet address which has associated QAN XLINK post-quantum keys.

    Done! You should see something similar in the output (you can safely ignore the low balance alert):

    Producing QAN XLINK signatures for 0x8552610914C09B85c03Bd67E3c8bF982C104D850
    BALANCE OF 0x8552610914C09B85c03Bd67E3c8bF982C104D850 BELOW 1 QANX
    

Warning:

QAN XLINK will only automatically cross-sign your future transactions in the background using post-quantum cryptography while Docker is running on your device.
