Introducing ourselves to the community. We're running ML-DSA-65 (FIPS 204) natively in a production blockchain environment — not as a hybrid or migration layer, but as the primary signature scheme.
Our main takeaway after months in production: the algorithm itself is not the bottleneck. The real challenges are infrastructure-level — key management at scale, signature verification throughput, and peer-to-peer propagation with larger message sizes.
Curious to hear from others who are deploying FIPS 204 in production. Most of the conversation around PQC is still theoretical or focused on migration planning.
We'd like to connect with teams who are past the planning phase and into real-world deployment.
What PQC deployment challenges are you encountering?
