The question lingers in the tech sphere: Could a quantum computer eventually break Bitcoin? Recent calculations have put a surprisingly concrete number on the problem—around 20,000 physical qubits and 25.7 days using a specific fault-tolerant trapped-ion architecture. While such a machine doesn’t exist today, this projection transforms a theoretical cybersecurity concern into a clear engineering […]

In the realm of technology, few areas are as enigmatic yet brimming with potential as quantum computing. In a recent episode of ImpactQuantum, I had the pleasure of speaking with Sam Kearney, Head of Growth at Haiqu. His journey into quantum technology is uniquely unconventional, proving that one doesn’t need a PhD to make significant […]

If you’ve been even remotely paying attention, you’ll know that quantum computing is heating up. And if you haven’t? Well, let’s fix that. This past week in quantum was a wild ride—Microsoft made some big claims (again), international collaborations are gaining momentum, and the tech itself is evolving faster than most of us can keep […]
