Quantum walks sound abstract, but they sit at the center of a very concrete race: who will harness quantum mechanics to solve ...

IBM Corp. is taking to the stage at its inaugural IBM Quantum Developer Conference today to showcase new advances in quantum computing hardware and software. At the event, it demonstrated how its most ...

Performing complex algorithms on quantum computers will eventually require access to tens of thousands of hardware qubits. For most of the technologies being developed, this creates a problem: It’s ...

Every online bank transfer, private message and Bitcoin transaction rests on the assumption that some math problems are ...

The rise of quantum computing poses both promise and peril for modern cryptography—and blockchains lie right at the crossroads. As machines become capable of shattering our current cryptographic ...

Post-quantum cryptography specialist BTQ Technologies has introduced ‘Bitcoin Quantum,’ a permissionless fork and testnet of ...

Researchers from Google Quantum AI report that their quantum processor, Willow, ran an algorithm for a quantum computer that solved a complex physics problem thousands of times faster than the world's ...

Quantum computers still look like lab toys: Racks of hardware, error-prone qubits and almost no real-world applications. Yet if you check the roadmaps of major layer-1 blockchains, a new priority now ...

To promote faster development of quantum algorithms and applications, IBM has just launched the Qiskit Functions Catalog. This new platform allows developers from IBM and other organizations to ...
