  • Quantum Computing Impact on Post-Quantum Cryptocurrencies

    Posted in Crypto on Jun 05, 2024

    Quantum computing is a transformative technology that leverages the principles of quantum mechanics to process information in fundamentally different ways compared to classical computing. Unlike classical bits, which represent data as 0s or 1s, quantum bits or qubits can represent and process multiple states simultaneously due to superposition. This capability allows quantum computers to solve complex problems much faster than classical computers. Entanglement, another key principle of quantum mechanics, enables qubits that are entangled to be correlated with each other, even across large dist...
