• Abstract: Advances in quantum computing introduce long-term security challenges for widely deployed public-key cryptographic systems used across blockchain platforms and decentralized applications. Although post-quantum cryptography (PQC) standards are emerging, understanding quantum risk remains fragmented across research, engineering, governance, and investment communities. This demo presents Quantum Futures Interactive, a live interdisciplinary demonstration platform combining educational visualization, participatory interaction, and cryptographic artifact generation to illustrate the transition from classical to quantum-resilient blockchain systems. Participants engage in a structured interaction flow including quantum threat education, sentiment capture, technology prioritization, infrastructure tradeoff exploration, and generation of post-quantum cryptographic outputs. The system integrates distributed trust concepts, sustainability-aware infrastructure considerations, and responsible innovation within an interactive decision framework. The demonstration supports interdisciplinary dialogue on blockchain resilience while aligning with United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

  Generation and control of quantum correlations in high-dimensional systems is a major challenge in the present landscape of quantum technologies. We propose a protocol that is able to attain entangled states of $d$-dimensional systems through a quantum-walk-based it transfer & accumulate mechanism. In particular, we illustrate a possible photonic implementation where the information is encoded in the orbital angular momentum and polarization degrees of freedom of single photons.
