The bottleneck holding quantum computing back isn't hardware. It's that nobody's teaching physicists how to use it. @QuantumRingsInc fixed that. Here's how 👇 youtu.be/wWZ-k4Fp_P4

...For reference, according to @IonQ_Inc's roadmap 1,450 logical qubits will be in the rearview mirror in 2028. ionq.com/roadmap

"Not Posting the circuit" stops nothing. Simply saying it can be done is enough.

I can hardly wait...

It's coming... securityweek.com/quantum-dec… The million dollar question: When will it be broken?

It was great to spend the weekend with the Hackers, the industry sponsors, and the facilitators. Always inspired by what small teams of passionate people can do in a short period of time.

Could this be true? @IcebergQuantum just claimed that instead of ~1M physical qubits, RSA 2048 can now be broken with ~100k physical qubits using their LDPC codes. "As a concrete demonstration, Pinnacle shows how breaking RSA-2048 — long considered to require millions of physical qubits — could be achieved with fewer than one hundred thousand" finance.yahoo.com/news/icebe… While we still have a long way to go to 100k qubits, we seems to be getting about a 10x reduction each year, while quantum computers rapidly grow. Don't Panic, Do Prepare.

Anyone from the Bittensor ecosystem making the trip out to Colorado for @EthereumDenver? My team is bouncing around the idea of setting up a casual open coffee hour near the venue during the conference, and I wanted to see if anyone would be interested.

JB is probably right here. Two questions where I’d love community input: 1 - Timing — With the broader crypto market on fire (and the ripple effects on Bittensor, etc), is now the right moment to do a tour? Or will it land on deaf ears given everything else going on? 2 - Selection — We want long-term investors who truly see the value in quantum—not speculators. (Speculators burned us in TAO flow: short-term hype, long-term pain.) With that in mind, which shows/podcasts/conferences should we prioritize? Appreciate any thoughts!

Breaking Bitcoin...

Global minimum found: Boca Raton. Welcome to HQ life @dwavequantum

New data from The Quantum Insider shows a clear shift. Quantum is moving out of labs and into the real world. Countries and companies are now installing hardware, building networks and scaling facilities. thequantuminsider.com/2025/1…

Well done team! Next stop-- 1M qubits! 🚀🚀🚀

We are getting ready to open up beta access to free quantum compute to the next major wave of users on @OpenQuantum_ If you haven't pre-registered yet, get registered at openquantum.com in the next few hours, and you might still make the next wave of users ;-)
