Bangladeshi researchers have developed a quantum-proof blockchain framework designed to keep online transactions safe as much faster computers arrive, and their work could make digital services more trustworthy for banks, shops and public systems. The new framework was created by a team led by Shormila Rani Das with support from Assistant Professor Ahsan Ullah at World University of Bangladesh, and it blends two post-quantum cryptography methods, SPHINCS+ and NTRU, to protect data in different ways. SPHINCS+ uses hash-based signatures while NTRU uses lattice-based encryption, and together they form layers that make it much harder for a quantum machine to break the rules that now keep blockchains safe. Scientists tested the system with simulated quantum attacks and report it resisted more than ninety-five percent of those tests while keeping transaction speed at a useful level, so networks do not slow down when security is raised. The team says their approach can be used by banks, fintech startups, government services and any group that needs to record transactions and protect user data from future threats. By planning ahead, organisations can avoid sudden risks and keep customer trust as new computing tools emerge. The researchers also note that local engineers can run and maintain this system, opening work for technicians and helping build a homegrown technology base that supports digital growth. Beyond safety, the project can boost wider digital adoption by giving buyers and sellers confidence that payments, supply records and identity checks stay private and correct. That confidence may help shops sell more online, let new digital services grow, and encourage investment in local tech firms. The framework also fits with development goals by linking secure digital tools with better jobs and stronger industry, which helps communities that need steady work and reliable services. To make the idea practical, the team suggests further trials with banks and public agencies, clear rules for testing and simple guides for small firms so they can plug into secure networks without long delays. They hope training, local repair plans and clear standards will let the method scale beyond early tests and become a real option for many organisations. Experts who follow this work say early moves to build quantum-proof systems are wise because they avoid rushed big changes later when threats arrive. Simple steps now can reduce future cost and protect people’s data, while helping local tech teams gain skills that pay off in new jobs and services. The researchers invite collaboration to test the framework more widely and to adapt it to real markets, with the aim of turning a strong lab result into a tool that keeps daily digital life safer and more reliable. They welcome partners to join trials and share feedback soon.
