Quantum startup are claiming to be testing 1180 qubit quantum computer / Quantum-resistant cryptography to consider
Quantum computing startup Atom Computing recently claimed that it is testing a 1,180 qubit quantum computer, which could be available next year, surpassing its counterparts from giants such as IBM and Google, according to Decrypt. But the analysis article also points out that atomic computing may have created quantum computing with a bunch of qubits, but sometimes the quantum world is more focused on quality than quantity.

Quantum computing will also threaten the existing traditional cryptography, so there is also the emergence of quantum-resistant cryptography. Nowadays, qubits are constantly increasing, and more than 1,000 qubits will exceed the performance of ordinary conventional computers (but for different purposes). But to maintain a quantum stable state close to absolute zero, the volume and energy consumption cannot be suppressed, which is a real dilemma. This is also a capital-based industry, a large amount of R&D investment, the competition between large countries and large enterprises is inevitable, there are IBM, Google and China and the US in front of us, although it is still at the laboratory level, Comxper also feels that the light quantum of Jiuzhang company is very good, and also hopes that the information security level can keep up with the progress of quantum development.
