Quantum hardware has finally crossed a psychological threshold: it is no longer a science project in search of a purpose, it is a working tool that large companies and governments are starting to use.

Quantum computing is a field of computer science that uses quantum mechanics to solve problems that are too complex for classical computers. Instead of processing information in simple binary form, ...

A gold superconducting quantum computer hangs against a black background. Quantum computers, like the one shown here, could someday allow chemists to solve problems that classical computers can’t.

This week, Google published a paper describing how a quantum computer could theoretically derive a bitcoin private key in 9 minutes, with ramifications that stretch to Ethereum, other tokens, private ...
