Have you ever seen a line of barium atoms queueing to be pushed to be in superposition? IonQ shows us the way. We won’t talk about “post-quantum” anymore but about Quantum Resistant according to POTUS and the new directive. JPMorgan uses Toshiba decides to build a quantum-resistant blockchain (basically, Shor-protected). Rigetti makes two announcements, makes their 80 qubit system live in the usual platforms, and achieves 99,5 fidelity on CNOT gates, key for entangling qubits and fundamental to realise algorithms that matter. (If you don’t entangle qubits… what do you want a quantum computer for?). Classic raises $33M for their developer platform (they are from Israel and the same week the country announced their plans to build their quantum sovereign plan), on the wake of Cuantinuum forecasting $2B in sales in 2026. According to Zapata on companies spending > $1M per year, that is a market share of…. I’ll let you do the math!
