Users assume full responsibility for decisions made based on information obtained from this platform. Links to external websites do not imply endorsement or affiliation with aVenture. Any links that provide the ability to invest in a primary or secondary transaction in a company are for convenience only and do not constitute solicitations or offers to buy or sell an investment. Investors should exercise heightened precaution and due diligence when investing in private companies, especially those not independently audited.

Profiles on this platform may include content generated in part by large language models (LLMs, artificial intelligence) that aggregate publicly available sources (e.g., SEC EDGAR, public filings, press releases).

Radical Semiconductor, founded in 2019 by Zachary Belateche and headquartered in Studio City, California, was a seed-stage startup focused on developing analog cryptographic IDs designed to defend against quantum and physically invasive attacks. Its flagship product, LiteCard, served as a customizable crypto wallet that doubled as a membership card, gift card, or event pass.

In September 2024, BTQ Technologies Corp. acquired Radical Semiconductor's entire portfolio of technology assets, including its intellectual property, patent portfolio, hardware design assets, and software associated with the CASH cryptographic accelerator architecture. Radical's co-founders joined BTQ to lead silicon product and hardware security, and its technology was integrated into BTQ's quantum-secure communications infrastructure.
