Traditional encryption methods have long been vulnerable to quantum computers, but two new analyses suggest a capable enough ...

Google warns that quantum computers could break crypto sooner than expected, heightening the urgency for post-quantum security across blockchain networks.

Quantum computers of the future may be closer to reality thanks to new research from Caltech and Oratomic, a Caltech-linked start-up company. Theorists and experimentalists teamed up to develop a new ...

Two analyses suggest that quantum computers could crack ubiquitous security keys and cryptocurrencies before the decade is ...

Dr. Dominic Williamson, a University of Sydney quantum physicist, has developed a new approach to quantum error correction that could significantly reduce the number of physical qubits required to ...

The new approach to reduce quantum errors applies gauge theory to track global quantum activity, such as across a "quantum hard drive," without collapsing local qubit states, according to the study ...

Quantum computing's rapid progress threatens blockchain security, demanding urgent new cryptographic solutions.

Quantum circuits are supposed to gain power as they grow longer, but noise changes the picture. A new study finds that earlier steps in these circuits gradually lose their impact, with only the final ...

Google research reveals quantum computers could crack Bitcoin encryption in 9 minutes by 2029. Elon Musk sees a silver lining ...

There is a number buried in a Google research paper from late 2024 that raised the ceiling on what computers can do. A ...
