QuDAG: The Future of Autonomous, Quantum-Resistant, Zero-Person Businesses

QuDAG is a revolutionary quantum-resistant distributed communication platform built for the quantum age, designed to support the next generation of autonomous AI agents, swarm intelligence, and zero-person businesses. This is the core library that provides the foundation for building Agentic Organizations—where AI-driven systems run businesses entirely on their own.

🚀 The Platform for Autonomous Businesses

QuDAG enables businesses to operate autonomously and decentrally, without human intervention. The platform provides:

• Quantum-Resistant Security: ML-KEM-768 & ML-DSA cryptography protects against future quantum threats
• Agent Swarm Coordination: Built-in support for autonomous AI agent communication and coordination
• Resource Exchange Economy: rUv tokens enable agents to trade computational resources
• Zero-Person Operations: Immutable deployments for stable, long-term autonomous operations
• Decentralized Infrastructure: P2P network ensures resilience without central points of failure

📦 Installation

Add QuDAG to your Rust project:

[dependencies]
qudag = "1.3"

Or install specific components:

[dependencies]
qudag-crypto = "0.4"      # Quantum-resistant cryptography
qudag-network = "0.4"     # P2P networking
qudag-dag = "0.4"         # DAG consensus
qudag-exchange-core = "0.3"  # Resource exchange

🚀 Quick Start

Basic Usage

use qudag::prelude::*;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    // Create quantum-resistant keys
    let keypair = MlDsaKeyPair::generate()?;
    
    // Initialize DAG
    let dag = Dag::new();
    
    // Create network manager
    let network = NetworkManager::new()?;
    
    // Initialize exchange for resource trading
    let exchange = Exchange::new()?;
    
    println!("QuDAG node ready for autonomous operations!");
    Ok(())
}

Autonomous Agent Example

use qudag::{Exchange, NetworkManager, MlDsaKeyPair};

// Create an autonomous agent
pub struct AutonomousAgent {
    keypair: MlDsaKeyPair,
    exchange: Exchange,
    network: NetworkManager,
}

impl AutonomousAgent {
    pub async fn run(&mut self) -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
        // Register on the network
        self.network.register_domain("agent.dark").await?;
        
        // Create exchange account
        let account = self.exchange.create_account("autonomous-agent")?;
        
        // Start trading resources
        loop {
            // Buy computational resources when needed
            if self.needs_resources() {
                self.exchange.transfer(
                    &account,
                    &resource_provider,
                    rUv::new(100),
                    Some("Buying CPU time")
                )?;
            }
            
            // Sell excess resources
            if self.has_excess_resources() {
                self.exchange.transfer(
                    &other_agent,
                    &account,
                    rUv::new(50),
                    Some("Selling bandwidth")
                )?;
            }
            
            tokio::time::sleep(Duration::from_secs(60)).await;
        }
    }
}

Zero-Person Business Example

use qudag::{BusinessConfig, Exchange, ImmutableDeployment};

// Configure a zero-person business
let config = BusinessConfig::builder()
    .enable_auto_distribution(true)
    .enable_vault_management(true)
    .enable_role_earnings(true)
    .set_payout_threshold(rUv::new(100))
    .build()?;

// Deploy immutably for autonomous operation
let deployment = ImmutableDeployment::new(config)
    .with_grace_period(Duration::from_hours(24))
    .lock(keypair)?;

// Business now runs autonomously without human intervention

💡 Use Cases

Autonomous AI Services

Build AI agents that provide services and generate revenue independently:

• Customer service bots that earn tokens per interaction
• Content generation agents that sell their output
• Analysis agents that trade insights for resources

Decentralized Compute Markets

Create marketplaces where agents trade computational resources:

• CPU/GPU time for AI training
• Storage space for distributed data
• Bandwidth for content delivery
