The SORA-QAI Blockchain Core inherits from the wallets of typical blockchain projects, so you can use it in the same way.

After downloading, extract the executable file (SorachanCoin-Core.exe) from the archive. Note that there is no installer provided. In cryptocurrency (crypto-assets/virtual currency), upgrading the wallet is usually done by simply overwriting the executable file. Therefore, an installer would be inconvenient if you only need the executable file.

Next, place the executable file (SorachanCoin-Core.exe) in a location of your choice and launch it. Please allow it through SmartScreen.

A dialog will prompt you to set the data folder, where you can specify the location for the blockchain and the wallet. Then, wait for the blockchain to synchronize.

SORA-QAI offers a rich array of features, such as “Quantum AI-resistant Schnorr aggregated signatures (5000 keys)” and “Blockchain anonymous encrypted communication,” due to our enthusiasm for key development. We hope you will find these features useful.

The overview highlights that the staking balance and balance categories are divided into “ECDSA only” and “Quantum AI-resistant Schnorr aggregated signatures (5000 keys).” It allows you to see at a glance the categories managed by SORA.

This operates in a “decentralized” manner, leveraging the nature of the blockchain.

When obtaining a new address, you will choose from 4 types:

  • An address for ECDSA: e.g (S …)
  • An address for Quantum AI-resistant: e.g. (sora1 …)
  • An address for Quantum AI-resistant Schnorr aggregated signatures (5000 keys): e.g. (sora1 …)
  • Ethereum-style address: e.g. (sora1 …)

If you generate without checking any options, it will be for ECDSA. The rest are determined by the presence or absence of checks. Note that the Ethereum-style address is still under development. It will sync with Ethereum’s private key to obtain the same public key, which will be used to operate SORA.

Open the debug menu to “Obtain your cryptographic address,” where you can get the address of the public key to receive encrypted messages. This special address starts with cipher1 and is for encrypted messages only. By separating it from the SORA receiving address, you can avoid accidental usage.

The button on the left is for sending, and the button on the right is for receiving. Messages are sent to the address at the top. If you set the recipient address to a third party, it becomes a dialogue via encrypted messages. If you set it to yourself, it becomes an encrypted memo that only you can read.

There is also a “Stealth Mode” checkbox. When sending in this mode, your public key address is not displayed to the recipient, making you anonymous. Since the blockchain does not recognize the concept of IP addresses, it is impossible to trace the anonymous recipient. In the image, received messages with a from field of “—” were sent in this “Stealth Mode.” Normally, the from field contains the sender’s address.

When you receive a message, it is displayed at the top as shown in the image. You can change the search time with the spin box next to it. The default is 168 hours, covering 7 days.

Write your encrypted message in the large text box below. It supports Japanese and line breaks, with a maximum of about 2,000 characters. After sending, wait for it to be recorded on the blockchain. There is a feature that automatically checks until it is recorded, and you will be notified once it is complete.

This feature leverages the decentralized nature of the blockchain, ensuring that no one, not even us, can intercept the messages. Rest assured.

The adjacent feature allows you to view encrypted messages you have sent in the past. Enter the recipient’s address and press the button on the right in the same way.
