Who We Are

Qol Labs is committed to developing, testing, and deploying the Pim Protocol, a scalable Layer-1 blockchain engineered to empower 2 billion unbanked individuals, unlocking a $249 billion market opportunity in emerging markets. Implemented in Rust for performance and leveraging RISC-V for efficiency, the Pim Protocol delivers high throughput (15,100–16,100 TPS), low latency (0.3–0.5 s confirmation, 8 s finality), and energy efficiency (0.00034 kWh/tx). It builds on innovative consensus mechanisms, including Proof-of-Entropy-Minima (PoEM) for 0.01 ms block selection with ~0% fork probability, MergedShard-Proof-of-Work (MergedShard-PoW) for 30–40% reduced overhead, Deterministic Finality Protocol (DFP), and Greedy Heaviest Observed Sub-Tree (GHOST), ensuring quantum-resistant security and near-instant finality. The protocol features a dual-token system:

PYM: A fixed-supply governance token (100M) for smart contracts, staking, and decentralized governance, with a Governance Lockup Mechanism (GLM) requiring ≥1,000 PYM stake for proposals.

QOL: An inflationary flatcoin for payments, minted via QOL Energy Minting (QEM) (~60 QOL/block, 1 QOL ≈ 1 MJ), maintaining 1–2% volatility through 15 stability mechanisms, including Predictive Volatility Trigger (PVT), Dynamic Reserve Diversification (DRD), Adaptive Fee Model (AFM), Economic Circuit Breaker (ECB), Energy Smoothing Algorithm (ESA), Rebate/Reward Pool (RRP), and Satoshi’s Wormhole for permanent QOL burns (up to 4.5B QOL/year).
