Watch Out Bitcoin: Cryptography-Breaking Quantum Computers May Be Closer Than Expected, Says Caltech
In brief
Caltech researchers say quantum computers may require just 10,000–20,000 qubits to crack modern cryptography.
The work outlines a new error-correction approach for neutral-atom quantum computers.
The advance could accelerate timelines for machines capable of running Shor’s
