6. Test Post-Quantum feature

Hcash mainnet supports Post-Quantum feature which is more secure. Hcash mainnet is flexible that it supports both Post-Quantum and unPost-Quantum features. There are two accounts in HcashWallet: one is general account which doesn't support Post-Quantum feature, the other is Post-Quantum account which supports Post-Quantum feature. HcashWallet address of general account has prefix "Hs". And HcashWallet address of Post-Quantum has prefix "Hb".

The size of Post-Quantum signature is larger than ECDSA signature, thus the transaction fees is also more expensive than general ones. Users can click in or out to transfer Hcash between general account and Post-Quantum account.
