What is quantum technology? Quantum technology can process an enormous amount of data and solve complex problems in seconds ...

Eight wallets that had been dormant since 2011 each transferred 10,000 BTC to new SegWit addresses on Friday, over 14 years ...

Organizations responsible for data security cannot afford to wait for quantum to arrive before building their defenses.

The problem with the paper published earlier this month was its reliance on Schnorr's algorithm (not to be confused with Shor’s algorithm), which was developed in 1994.

A research team has achieved the holy grail of quantum computing: an exponential speedup that’s unconditional. By using ...

Quantum computing threatens Bitcoin & digital systems like banking & payments. Can Bitcoin’s $2T incentive drive ...

Peter Shor didn’t set out to break the internet. But an algorithm he developed in the mid-1990s threatened to do just that. In a landmark paper, Shor showed how a hypothetical computer that exploited ...

Quantum researchers finally captured the field’s “holy grail,” showing real machines can beat classical computing ...

A factorization method known as Shor’s algorithm makes it theoretically possible to solve these types of problems. That, in turn, means certain death for many of the cryptographic schemes now ...

Shor’s Algorithm is a special trick for quantum computers. It’s like a super-fast calculator that can find the factors of ...
