[{"type":"text","content":"Geneva, Switzerland, Dec. 17, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SEALSQ Owns 28.3% Stake in WECAN Via Strategic Investments Focused on Quantum Technology Integration SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES) (\"SEALSQ\" or \"Company\"), a company that focuses on developing and selling Semiconductors, PKI, and Post-Quantum technology hardware and software products, today announced that WeCanGroup SA (“WECAN”), a blockchain-based solutions entity in which SEALSQ owns a 28.3% minority stake, was awarded a grant from Hedera. The receipt of the grant represents a new milestone for WECAN following the completion of a strategic investment made by SEALSQ earlier this year focused on the integration of its semiconductor, PKI, and post-quantum technologies into WECAN’s compliance and secure data-exchange platforms. The grant awarded by Hedera represented by The Hashgraph Association, which stands at the forefront of the digital enablement and empowerment of organizations through the broad adoption of Hedera-powered, enterprise-grade solutions and applications in the decentralized economy. These funds will support the scaling of quantum-resilient compliance systems, the expansion of secure data infrastructures, the enhancement of decentralized identity technologies, and the integration of SEALSQ’s post-quantum semiconductor capabilities across WECAN’s offerings. As part of this collaboration, SEALSQ, Hedera, and WECAN are jointly developing integrated post-quantum KYC solutions designed to accelerate the adoption of quantum-safe security across the global financial sector. This alliance combines SEALSQ’s hardware-based cybersecurity innovations with WECAN’s established financial compliance ecosystem, enabling secure, scalable, and future-proof infrastructure. Immediate outcomes include the integration of SEALSQ’s quantum-resistant encryption into WECAN’s platforms used by leading private banks and asset managers; the co-development of quantum-safe identity verification tools for financial institutions, asset managers, and DeFi operators; the embedding of post-quantum algorithms into SEALSQ semiconductors to protect billions of IoT devices; and the expansion of decentralized identity solutions for Web 3.0 applications.
