Insider Brief Efforts to make blockchains quantum-resistant could significantly slow transaction speeds, forcing networks like Solana to balance security with performance. Testing of quantum-safe cryptographic signatures showed up to 40× larger data sizes and roughly […]
As Beijing’s 15th Five-Year Plan designates quantum as the country’s top “future industry,” two startups close ~$145 million rounds within days of each other, marking the return of large-scale capital to a sector that went quiet […]
Insider Brief QBoson raised CNY1 billion ($145 million) in a Series B round to scale quantum chip production and expand its computing systems. The company will use the funds to build a pilot chip production […]
Insider Brief Q-Factor raised $24 million in seed funding to develop a neutral atom quantum computing architecture designed to scale from thousands to potentially millions of qubits. The company aims to address a central industry […]
Insider Brief Quantum computing poses a fundamental threat to widely used encryption systems including RSA, elliptic curve cryptography, and Diffie-Hellman key exchange, which secure everything from online banking to government communications, with algorithms like Shor’s […]
Insider Brief A new theoretical study finds that noise in quantum circuits effectively limits their usable depth, causing deep circuits to behave like much shallower ones and reducing their computational advantage. The researchers show that […]
Insider Brief Google’s analysis of quantum algorithms capable of breaking current cryptography also implies that the same class of machines could enable meaningful near-term quantum applications. The logical qubit requirements for cryptographic attacks and for […]
