Microsoft breakthrough signals quantum-exclusive future for blockchain mining

November 28, 2024 Coin Telegraph

Atom Computing

The new hardware could ultimately host a theoretical algorithm with the potential to transform proof-of-work.

Microsoft and Atom Computing, a technology firm based in California, recently announced a breakthrough in quantum computing that could pave the way for a proof-of-work transformation in the world of blockchain mining.

Scientists and engineers from the two companies developed a quantum computing system made up of 24 entangled logical qubits produced by just 80 physical qubits — a feat that sets a new record for the highest number of entangled logical qubits achieved using error correction techniques.

The significance of this scientific breakthrough is in the teams’ achieved efficiency. Previous estimates have indicated that it could take thousands of physical qubits working in tandem to produce a single logical qubit.
