PORTO, Portugal & WILMINGTON, DE — Naoris Protocol announced that blockchain pioneer Michael Terpin has joined the company as a Strategic Advisor, marking a major addition to its leadership team as it expands its Decentralized Post-Quantum Infrastructure.
Terpin, often referred to as the “Godfather of Crypto” by CNBC, is the founder and CEO of Transform Ventures and Transform Group, one of the largest advisory and marketing firms in the cryptocurrency industry. His career spans more than a decade of shaping blockchain innovation and investment strategy.
“I’m delighted to join Naoris as an advisor amid growing recognition around the need for quantum-resistant security for both Web2 and Web3,” said Terpin. “A recent research paper from the SEC presents Naoris as the go-to standard for the financial sector’s shift to quantum-safe systems. When regulators look for examples of quantum-resistant blockchain and zero-knowledge privacy solutions, Naoris will set the benchmark.”
Naoris CEO and Founder David Carvalho said Terpin’s appointment reflects the company’s expanding role in building post-quantum infrastructure for both traditional and decentralized systems. “Bringing in Michael Terpin as a strategic advisor demonstrates the scale of our ambition to pioneer the first decentralized post-quantum infrastructure for Web2 and Web3,” he said. “His unrivalled expertise in crypto public relations and regulation will be especially valuable as the industry shifts toward post-quantum infrastructure.”
Naoris Protocol recently drew attention after being cited in a research submission to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s Post-Quantum Financial Infrastructure Framework as a model for quantum-resistant blockchain systems.
Earlier this year, the company raised $3 million in a strategic funding round led by Mason Labs with participation from investors including Tim Draper and Tradecraft Capital. Naoris also launched its $NAORIS utility token, which enables quantum-resistant security validations across Web3 and traditional infrastructures.
Operating at the “Sub-Zero Layer” of the blockchain stack, Naoris Protocol integrates Post-Quantum Cryptography and Decentralized Proof-of-Security consensus to secure networks against emerging quantum computing threats. Since launching its testnet in January, the platform has processed over 104 million post-quantum transactions and onboarded more than 3.3 million wallets across industries including finance, telecom, and defense.
