As developers, we often equate "heavy" security like Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) with high latency and power.
​The Benchmark Data:
​Node Load: 5 Lattice nodes (with PQ-Keys) maintain < 20% CPU utilization on an Intel i5 Mini PC.
​Network Energy: Our current 16-node testnet (8 L1 + 8 L2) pulls < 250W.
​Comparison: One hour of running the entire Lattice network uses less energy than 0.0002% of a single legacy PoW transaction.
​We are proving that a Hybrid DAG + EVM architecture on an L2 level can scale sustainably on consumer-grade hardware.
