How to connect Web3 to quantum computers. Last week Google released Cirq 1.0 and this one we see the great Abe Asfaw showing how to use it in a set of very good videos. Google also goes down under with an alliance with some of the key universities. Alibaba shows promising results with fluxonium qubits. Amazing results on the BMW challenge with some interesting takeaways. In China Origin Quantum closes $148M in a series B (I thought that was now called series A+ ;) ). Making this quarter the highest in funding this year so far (citation needed). In the meantime, the US keeps pushing for the post-quantum future, while the world has an army of researchers trying to beat the post-quantum NIST finalist algorithms. Earlier this week a group published a way to beat AES using a variation of Grover’s algorithm (now withdrawn). But quickly, flaws are found in the method. This is why, sometimes, it is important to know the basics
