AYA CORE

Documentation

AYA CORE is a post-quantum blockchain whose cryptographic foundation is the complete text of the Quran. This page explains what it is, why it stands apart, and how to take part as a validator.

What AYA CORE is

Most blockchains begin from an arbitrary genesis block — a number chosen by its founders. AYA CORE begins from something no one can reproduce or replace: the entire text of the Quran, treated as the cryptographic root of the whole system.

The sacred text is decomposed into 635,835 symbols across 114 suras. Each symbol is a single, unique token with a fixed total supply. Nothing can be printed beyond what the text itself contains. The supply is finite by its very foundation — not by a promise, but by structure.

Why it is unique

The post-quantum design

Conventional blockchains rely on elliptic-curve signatures, which a sufficiently large quantum computer would break. AYA CORE avoids them entirely. Its cryptographic stack is chosen from standards designed to resist quantum attack:

In keeping with our principle of transparency of properties and privacy of implementation, the guarantees are public and verifiable, while the internal construction remains protected.

Halala, AYA, and Symbols

Value in AYA CORE is measured in three nested units. One Symbol equals one million AYA; one AYA equals ten thousand halala. The halala is the smallest indivisible unit. Balances are tracked per symbol lineage, so tokens of different origins never blend — identity is preserved down to the smallest unit.

Using the wallet

The AYA wallet runs in your browser. It keeps your keys on your own device — no account, no server holds your funds. This section walks through everything from first launch to sending your first transaction.

1 · Creating your wallet

On first launch, choose Create your wallet. You set up two things:

The picture and PIN are local convenience. The secret phrase is the true key — lose it and no one, including us, can recover your wallet.

Choose a phrase that is easy for you to remember but impossible for anyone to guess — a short vivid sentence works far better than a single word. For example: "the owl has eyes like the headlights of a car". Something familiar and pictorial stays in memory for years, yet no attacker could ever predict it.

This is why the phrase must never be written down. Even if someone obtains your backup blob, it is completely useless without the phrase — the blob is only an encrypted shell, and the phrase is the one thing that opens it. The blob you can store; the phrase you keep in your head alone.

2 · Saving your backup (blob)

Your wallet gives you a backup blob — a block of text that represents your encrypted wallet. Copy it and keep it somewhere safe (a password manager, an encrypted note). The blob alone is useless without your secret phrase, so the two together are what let you restore on a new device.

3 · Unlocking and the PIN

Each time you open the wallet, select your picture and enter your 6-digit PIN, then press Unlock. The PIN never leaves your device; it simply decrypts the wallet stored locally.

4 · Reading your balance

Once unlocked, the home screen shows your address and your balance. Balances are tracked per symbol lineage — you see how much you hold of each distinct symbol, since tokens of different origins are kept separate by design. Use the Copy control to copy your address for receiving funds.

5 · Sending a transaction

Open Send / Pay, then:

A tiny network fee (one halala per line) is applied. Nothing is ever destroyed — fees move to the network Treasury.

6 · Receiving funds

Open the Receive screen to display your address as a QR code. Let the sender scan it, or share your copied address directly. Anyone can send to your address; only your keys can spend from it.

7 · Secure Send

Secure Send creates a transfer that the recipient must actively claim, rather than a direct push to an address. The wallet produces a code (and QR) that you hand to the recipient. When they enter it in their own wallet, they prove ownership cryptographically and the funds move to them. This is useful when you want the recipient to confirm receipt, or when you don't yet have their address.

8 · Cold Wallet and bearer codes

The Cold Wallet screen lets you lock funds to a bearer code — a cryptographic cheque. Whoever enters the code claims the funds into their own wallet, regardless of who paid. This makes codes transferable: you can hand one to another person directly. The funds are genuinely frozen on the chain until claimed, so there is no risk of double-spending.

9 · Escrow

The Escrow screen shows incoming and outgoing held transfers. From here you can accept transfers sent to you, or return ones you sent that were not yet claimed. Escrow is what makes Secure Send and bearer codes safe: value is held on the chain, provably, until the right party acts.

Becoming a validator

Validators run the software that keeps the network honest — verifying blocks, participating in consensus, and safeguarding the integrity of the chain. Running a validator is open to those willing to operate a reliable node.

Minimum server requirements

How a node runs

Each validator holds its own copy of the sacred text and derives every public fact — a symbol's position, its codepoint — from that text directly, never trusting another party's claim. On startup the node loads the full text (roughly 75 seconds) and unlocks its ML-DSA-87 identity key. It then runs continuously under the system service manager, restarting automatically if interrupted.

Each validator carries a license that authorizes it to take part in consensus. The application process is being finalized — if you intend to run a validator, please contact the team and we will guide you through licensing and setup.

No separate gas token

Many networks force you to hold a second, separate token just to pay transaction fees — and that fee token often grows ever more expensive, so you must keep buying and topping it up before you can move your own funds. AYA CORE does not work this way.

The network fee is taken from the token itself. There is no second currency to acquire, hold, or refill. You never find yourself unable to send funds because you forgot to stock up on a separate "gas" coin. One token, one balance, no hidden dependency.

How AYA CORE compares

AYA CORE is its own independent post-quantum network — not a token issued on top of another chain. This has concrete consequences for how you use it:

A note on tone

AYA CORE is not a speculative instrument and makes no promise of profit. Its value is rooted in permanence and verifiability, not in hype. We build with respect for the text at its foundation, and we invite you to verify every claim for yourself.
