Units of the cyclotomic completion of the integer polynomial ring

Let Z[q]N\mathbb Z[q]^{\mathbb N} denote the cyclotomic completion of Z[q]\mathbb Z[q], and let U(R)U(R) be the multiplicative group of units of a ring RR. Unit-group conjecture.

U(Z[q]N)={±qiiZ}.U\bigl(\mathbb Z[q]^{\mathbb N}\bigr)=\{\pm q^i\mid i\in\mathbb Z\}.

The claim says that completion introduces no units beyond the signed integral powers of qq. The supplied text does not state whether this claim is known or open.
