Project Eleven was established on October 31, 2024, chosen to coincide with Bitcoin White Paper Day, as an applied lab working at the intersection of quantum computing and cryptography. The company raised a $6 million seed round co-led by Variant and Quantonation, followed by a $20 million Series A led by Castle Island Ventures. Additional backers include Coinbase Ventures, Lattice Fund, Balaji Srinivasan, Fin Capital, Nebular, Formation, Satstreet Ventures, and Nascent Ventures.
Project Eleven operates the Bitcoin Risq List, a public tracker of quantum-vulnerable Bitcoin addresses, and shipped yellowpages, an open-source post-quantum proof-of-Bitcoin-ownership tool. The company has also open-sourced libqc and quantum-vault as MIT-licensed reference implementations, both audited by Cure53, with repositories maintained on GitHub under the p-11 organization.
Project Eleven has pursued active industry collaborations, working with the Solana Foundation in December 2025 to deploy a post-quantum signature system on a testnet, and partnering with Ripple on post-quantum readiness for the XRP Ledger, including validator testing and a wallet prototype. In April 2026, Project Eleven awarded a 1 BTC Q-Day Prize for successfully breaking a 15-bit elliptic curve key on quantum hardware, and published "The Quantum Threat to Blockchains, 2026," a report modeling Q-Day scenarios. Advisors to the company include Michael Gronager, co-founder of Chainalysis and Kraken, alongside Dolev Bluvstein and Marin Ivezic.
Project Eleven has published 2,021 posts on the platform and has been mentioned by 71 accounts a total of 99 times, reflecting sustained attention from the crypto and quantum computing communities.
