Eventually XMSS was chosen for it’s cryptographic properties — but this was not an easy choice given it is stateful and requires significant computation prior to first use. A small number of other projects utilise variants of one-time hash-based signatures but QRL is the only crypto asset or blockchain which uses XMSS to protect the entire ledger.
