How does it compare?
When quantum computers break today's encryption, most wallets will be exposed.

Frequently asked questions
Payments
-
Can I pay in crypto?
Yes, when you click pay with crypto, you will be redirected to the daimo.com website for payment.
-
Which Card checkout do you use?
Stripe.
-
Do you have a referral program?
Yes - Give $10, Get $10. Once you purchase, you can get your personal discount link. Every friend who orders a PQ1™ through it saves $10 per device, and you earn $10 per device in return. Claim your rewards in the PQ1™ Vault app once you receive the device.
-
Does Freedom Factory pay the import costs?
For most destinations import duties and customs are not included in your order and are the buyer’s responsibility - with a small device without a battery, shipping from Hong Kong, we estimate those costs to be low. For a few destinations we collect customs & duties at checkout instead: if a "Customs & duties" line appears in your order summary, that amount is included in your total and nothing more is due on delivery.
Shipping
-
When will my device ship?
Pre-sale orders ship in Q4 2026.
-
Where do you ship?
We ship worldwide, excluding US sanctioned countries.
-
Do you ship to U.S. PO boxes?
No, please input an address for delivery.
-
How much is shipping?
Standard shipping is included for every country we ship to. For a small number of destinations where carrier costs are exceptionally high, checkout shows a base shipping cost before you pay. Where available, you can also choose an optional premium shipping upgrade at checkout. Import duties and customs are not included unless checkout shows a "Customs & duties" line for your country - then they are collected with your order and nothing more is due on delivery.
-
How can I edit my billing or shipping address?
Please email us at hi@freedomfactory.io for address changes.
-
How do you store my shipping data?
Fully encrypted. Deleted once we ship the device to you.
-
What is your return policy?
Pre-Sale orders are final.
Device
-
Does the device have any connectivity?
No, fully offline hardware signer. Once you connect your device with the USB-C cable, you are responsible for anything that you sign.
-
Is the PQ1™ waterproof?
It is water resistant. Do not fully submerge.
-
What are the dimensions of the PQ1™?
0.802 cm x 2.352 cm x 7.6 cm
-
What is the anticipated lifespan of the device?
We designed it with long-lasting components in mind. It should last many years with good care.
-
What is the rating and details of the Secure Enclaves?
EAL6+, the highest level of security for both enclaves.
-
Does the PQ1™ come with a USB-C cable?
Yes, included to use the device with the Vault app.
Software
-
What is your stance on open source?
We've fully open sourced everything from the hardware to the software, and the Vault App. View on Github
-
Did you get an Audit?
The Smart contract audit is in progress with Trail of Bits.
-
Is SPHINCS+C10 secure? Why a compressed variant instead of standard SLH-DSA?
SPHINCS+C10 is a compressed variant of SPHINCS+, the hash-based scheme NIST standardized as SLH-DSA in FIPS-205. Its two compression techniques - WOTS+C and FORS+C - come from peer-reviewed research co-authored by a SPHINCS+ designer, and they do not change the security assumption: forging a signature still requires breaking SHA-256. What C10 trades away is the 2^64-signature budget defined in the standard, replaced by a firmware-enforced 65,536-signature cap per key slot - decades of use for a hardware wallet. It is not FIPS-certified; it is the same mathematics, resized for on-chain verification. Full walkthrough: freedomfactory.io/learn/is-sphincs-c10-secure
-
What is open hardware?
We believe every hardware wallet that secures significant funds should be fully inspectable so you don't have to blindly trust us.
-
Why not Bitcoin?
Bitcoin currently does not support post-quantum accounts. There is an effort by StarkWare, but that current takes a GPU cluster per transactions and is not feasable for everyday consumers.
