Secures Major Commercial Agreement With AI Financial AIFC

Business May 8, 2026

Calgary, Alberta, May 07, 2026 -- SuperQ Quantum Computing Inc. ("SuperQ Quantum", "SuperQ", or the "Company"),  a global leader in hybrid quantum computing and post-quantum  cybersecurity, is pleased to announce securing a commercial agreement of  significant size with AI Financial Corporation ("AiFi", formerly ALT5 Sigma Corporation) AIFC a world leader in B2B and AI agent-to-agent digital finance.

Securing the $8 Billion Institutional Transactions and $WLFI Treasury

AiFi processed USD $3.5B in transactions in 2025, growing at a four-year CAGR of 66.5%.  It provides enterprise-grade, blockchain-powered infrastructure for  digital assets. AiFi specializes in Crypto-as-a-Service, offering tools  for trading (ALT5 Prime), payments (ALT5 Pay), and custody. The company  is known for operating in both fintech and biotech sectors. Furthermore,  its USD $1.5 billion strategic acquisition of World Liberty Financial  ($WLFI) tokens places AiFi at the vanguard of the emerging USD1  stablecoin settlement layer. With its launch of AiFi AI initiatives in  February 2026, AiFi is extending its payment and settlement  infrastructure into the emergent AI-driven commerce. This massive  aggregation of institutional capital - USD $8B transaction volume over  five years - creates a high-value target for "harvest now, decrypt  later" (HNDL) hackers and quantum adversaries. AiFi is partnering with  SuperQ on cryptographic financial security and real-world asset (RWA)  tokenization.

Engagement Overview: From Defence to Decentralization

AiFi  has engaged the Company to deploy its SuperPQC (Post-quantum  Cryptography) solutions for protecting its systems and making them the  global benchmark for quantum-resilient institutional finance. The  engagement will also integrate Super hybrid quantum compute into AiFi  digital assets infrastructure to enable the issuance of compute-backed  tokens. The engagement focuses on two core pillars:

  • Security Immunization: Full-lifecycle vulnerability diagnosis and deployment of NIST-approved  security across AiFi's technology stack to secure transaction tunnels  and institutional provenance.
  • Compute Tokenization: Leveraging SuperQ's high-performance compute cycles to create tradeable  and usable "Compute-as-an-Asset" tokens. This is aimed at  decentralizing the production and consumption of AI and quantum  computation.

Post project completion,  AiFi will continue to use Super and SuperPQC post-project for  continuous compute access and cybersecurity monitoring.

"By  partnering with SuperQ, AiFi is among the first to embark on the  journey toward a quantum utility and security economy," added Tony Isaac, CEO of AI FInancial Corporation.  "Future-proofing our multibillion annual monetary flows and our  strategic $WLFI treasury is a priority. Enabling decentralized  computation and secure AI e-commerce is our competitive edge. This  partnership sets a new benchmark for institutional digital assets,  ensuring our infrastructure remains the safest harbor for capital and  compute as we scale across borders."

Setting the Standard for Quantum Commercialization on the World Quantum Day

SuperQ  is marking the World Quantum Day 2026 with this major commercial  validation of its technology. While the industry follows speculative  multi-year roadmaps, SuperQ provides immediate quantum utility and  security. The Company continues to deliver on its technical, commercial  and strategic roadmap.

"Every move we make,  every technological development, every partnership - is strategic. I am  thankful for our engineering and business development teams for continuing to execute on the vision," stated Dr. Muhammad Khan, CEO and Board Chair of SuperQ.  "We are proud to be working with forward-looking leaders like AiFi to  usher the world into the era of commercial quantum utility and safety."
