“Re-Used Address” and “Double-Spend” Attacks are Just Two Types of Hacking Attacks Quantum Computing Could Exploit to Break Your Bitcoin
Threat of Quantum Computing to Bitcoin Should be Taken Seriously, But there’s Enough Time to Upgrade Current Security Systems, Experts Claim Read More… + LocalBitcoins, a leading peer to peer (P2P) Bitcoin exchange, notes that with the advent of quantum computing, there have been concerns that this new technology could be a threat to existing […]
Speedier and More Efficient at Energy Consumption, 2D Material Found to Enable Valleytronics
Odds are good for unique 2D compound Engineers at Rice University and Texas A&M University have found a 2D material that could make computers faster and more energy-efficient. Their material is a derivative of perovskite — a crystal with a distinctive structure — that has the surprising ability to enable the valleytronics phenomenon touted as […]
Quantum Computing Industry Disruptions That Matter – Are We There Yet?
Will quantum computing disrupt any industries that matter, and how soon? Read More… + “The way I would see it,” said Sutor, “by the end of the decade, we’ll start to see little, scattered examples. And then there’ll be this reassessment: Scientists, software engineers, and [other] people will say, ‘What do I have, and how […]
QuTech Researcher Funded to Study Electron Manipulation to Further Topological Quantum Materials
NWO Veni Grant for Filip Malinowski: bringing new tools for topological quantum computing The Dutch Research Council (NWO) has awarded an NWO Veni Grant to Filip Malinowski. The grant (250 thousand euros for a three-year program) will allow him to use a new kind of sensor to further uncover the properties of so-called topological materials, […]
