Qredo is an open-source, public, and permissionless platform that provides decentralized custody for decentralized assets. The technology merges multi-party computation (MPC) cryptographic security with a Layer-2 blockchain network to offer decentralized MPC (dMPC).
Qredo’s infrastructure can power true decentralization for crypto assets without worrying about the risks or challenges that traditional crypto custody solutions face. The Qredo network offers digital asset security via decentralized self-custody, allowing users to exercise complete control over ownership of their assets. They no longer depend on conventional centralized storage providers or vendors that pose significant security risks.
The Qredo Network also offers superior security without the hassles of private keys, key shards, or cold storage wallets. In addition, the cross-chain interoperability feature of the Layer-2 Qredo protocol allows users to use its infrastructure to trade and manage several stablecoins and Layer-1 cryptocurrencies.
One of the most significant advantages Qredo offers is its integration with MetaMask Institutional, allowing large investors to use their Qredo Wallet to trade, securely store, and leverage DeFi services on their crypto assets across the entire EVM ecosystem. This feature lets institutional investors access not only DeFi but also NFTs and Web3, all with the ease and convenience of MetaMask but with the superior security of Qredo Wallet.
QRDO is the native digital asset of Qredo Network and serves as the utility and governance token for the protocol. It is used to offer incentives to users, such as validators, liquidity providers, traders, and custody users on the platform.
