Hunter Beast is the author of BIP 360: a proposal that seeks to provide quantum resistance to Bitcoin, to prevent powerful computer builders from brute forcing arbitrary addresses to steal the funds. But is the quantum threat real? Does the number of qubits really make a difference when the quantum computer is general purpose? Shouldn't other industries outside of Bitcoin, especially governments and banks, be worried about the fragility of elliptic curve cryptography? In this episode, we'll try to answer some of these questions and also refer to Hunter Beast's previous experience with building RGB for Bitcoin tokens. ––––––––––––––––––––––––––– Time stamps: 01:08 - Introducing Hunter Beast 01:27 - BIP 360 and Quantum Resistance Hunter Beast introduces BIP 360, aimed at making Bitcoin resistant to quantum computing threats, a hot topic due to predictions of advanced quantum computers potentially breaking ECDSA signatures. 02:19 - Defining Bitcoin's Quantum Threat Quantum computing is institutional, not accessible to average Bitcoiners, making verification difficult. The threat is existential but not immediate, though warnings suggest proximity. 03:58 - U.S. Government Warnings U.S. government and institutions are preparing for quantum resistance by 2030, urging upgrades to protect against potential cryptographic breaks. 05:53 - Consensus Challenges Hard forks ensure UTXO migration but face consensus issues; soft forks are preferred, but coins must move to quantum-resistant addresses to avoid vulnerabilities. 06:38 - Bitcoin's Quantum Vulnerabilities Taproot, reused addresses, mempool-published data, and exposed public keys are vulnerable. ~90% of reused address coins are active, reducing concern, but Taproot needs upgrades. 09:41 - BIP 360 Solution for Taproot BIP 360 focuses narrowly on fixing Taproot's vulnerability to long-exposure attacks, enabling wallets to commit to multiple scripts, including quantum-resistant ones like SLHDSA. 13:07 - Signature Schemes ECDSA is Bitcoin's weak point. Lamport and Winternitz signatures are flawed (one-time use), but SLHDSA (using a hypertree of Winternitz signatures) allows secure address reuse. 17:10 - User Experience Impact BIP 360 minimizes changes to user experience, offering opt-in quantum-resistant scripts. Wallets could include security dials, but defaults remain familiar. 20:14 - Transaction Size and Costs Post-quantum signatures are larger (4-8k bytes), but address commitments are minimal (~34 bytes). Block size increases aren't necessary; solutions like Bitzip could scale transactions. 22:27 – Sideshift.ai 23:17 - Drivechains and Layer Two Labs Drivechains offer secure sidechain solutions, decentralizing custody and scaling Bitcoin. Testing is available on Signet, with Litecoin considering implementation. 29:48 - Bitcoin Ossification Debate Ossification (resistance to change) vs. necessary upgrades debated. Quantum threats may force changes as Bitcoin secures more value, despite opposition. 36:36 - Conspiracy Theory Counter Concerns about government-driven fear dismissed; BIP 360 is opt-in, only used if quantum threats emerge, preserving user choice. 54:26 - Quantum Computing Progress IBM's Condor has 1,121 qubits; breaking ECDSA needs ~20M qubits. With quantum advancements outpacing Moore's Law, upgrades are prudent within a decade. 59:58 - Sponsor Plugs Citrea (ZK rollup for Bitcoin financial apps) and Edge Wallet (duress mode, multi-coin support) highlighted. 01:02:30 - BIP 360 Number Selection BIP 360 assigned by reviewers, not chosen by Hunterbeast, reserved for quantum-related proposals. 01:06:04 - BIP 360 Reception from Core Devs Mixed feedback from reviewers like Ava Chow (called it “stupid” but provided useful critique). Still in draft at bip360.org, open for review. 01:11:29 - Unintended Consequences BIP 360 is minimal, unlikely to cause surprises like Taproot's ordinal inscriptions, as it enhances existing functionality. 01:12:42 - Is Quantum Resistance Perishable and Needs Updates? BIP 360 isn't definitive; periodic updates may be needed as quantum computers advance, requiring a proactive Bitcoin culture. 01:19:12 - NoOnes, Bitcoin.com, 01:21:46 - Best Practices for Quantum Safety Avoid address reuse, use native SegWit (BC1Q) addresses, don't expose Xpubs, and consider private mempools like MARA Slipstream for large transactions. 01:24:27 - Closing Remarks Gratitude to Hunter Beast for discussing BIP 360 and quantum threats, wishing success for the proposal.

On May 7, 1981, influential physicist Richard Feynman gave a keynote speech at Caltech. Feynman opened his talk by politely rejecting the very notion of a keynote speech, instead saying that he had his own ideas on what to discuss and that everyone should speak on what they please. And for Feynman, this meant proposing a new technology that could simulate physics with computers. That lecture 44 years ago is widely considered to have kicked off the field of quantum computing. In today's episode we dive into the world of quantum computing — its big challenges and exciting potential applications such as decoding tough-to-crack encrypted messages or discovering new drugs.

Quantum computing stands at the precipice of transforming our world—and the legal frameworks protecting this revolutionary technology are racing to keep pace. Dive deep into the realm where quantum physics meets intellectual property as we explore how these powerful machines are already solving problems classical computers can barely touch. From accelerating drug discovery and designing next-generation batteries to optimizing traffic systems and revolutionizing artificial intelligence, quantum computing isn't just theoretical anymore. It's real, it's practical, and it's raising profound questions about who can own these breakthroughs.We unpack the landmark Ex Parte Gao case, where the US Patent Trial and Appeal Board recognized a quantum algorithm as patentable technology rather than dismissing it as an abstract mathematical concept. This decision signals a pivotal shift in how patent offices might evaluate quantum innovations, creating a pathway for protecting quantum algorithms when they're tied to hardware implementation and technical outcomes.Through a global tour of quantum IP approaches, we reveal how different countries are positioning themselves in the quantum race. China leads in quantum communication patents, Europe welcomes technically-implemented quantum inventions, while nations from Brazil to Kenya are building capacity to support future quantum ecosystems. For inventors and entrepreneurs, we share practical strategies for securing protection. Frame your quantum innovation as a technical solution, tie algorithms to hardware steps, and demonstrate concrete improvements over classical methods.Beyond patents, we explore emerging collaborative models, such as cross-licensing agreements and potential quantum patent pools, that could accelerate innovation while reducing legal friction. Universities, startups, and global tech leaders are all navigating this rapidly evolving landscape, making strategic decisions about what to protect, what to share, and how to build sustained competitive advantage.Join us as we decode the invisible laws shaping the quantum revolution, one qubit at a time. The future of computing and perhaps our world, depends on getting this intersection of breakthrough science and intellectual property right.Send us a text

Send me a messageIn this episode of the Sustainable Supply Chain podcast, I sat down with Dr Erik Garcell, Director of Quantum Enterprise Development at Classiq, to explore how quantum computing is moving from theoretical buzz to practical tool, and what that means for supply chains.We talked about why quantum's real strength lies in optimisation: solving incredibly complex problems like route planning, inventory management, or energy grid design far faster than classical systems ever could. Erik explained how quantum is already being used via cloud platforms (yes, even on AWS), and why enterprises, from BMW to Mitsubishi Chemicals, are experimenting with it now, not later.We got into real-world use cases too: dynamic logistics recalculations in response to disruptions, quantum-enhanced digital twins for EV battery design, and how this tech might support real-time, low-carbon decision-making across vast supplier networks.This isn't about replacing classical computing, it's about adding a powerful new tool to the box. Erik also gave practical advice for supply chain leaders: how to start engaging with quantum now, when upskilling your existing team makes more sense than hiring PhDs, and what pitfalls to avoid.If you're wondering when, or even if, quantum computing will matter to your business, this is the episode for you.

Recorded at the American Physical Society's Global Summit, the conversation explores the intersection of curiosity-driven research and technological advancement in quantum physics.Key Topics Discussed1. Research Focus: Quantum Cavities and SuperpositionDr. Gao shares her team's work on using cavities (harmonic oscillators) coupled with a single qubit to probe fundamental quantum effects.The experiments focus on quantum superposition and entanglement using minimal hardware—just one qubit and one cavity—eschewing the race for more qubits in favor of deeper scientific insights.Discussion of "cat states" as iconic demonstrations of quantum superposition, and how their properties can be engineered for robustness and sensitivity without specialized hardware.2. Experimental InnovationThe team investigates loss mechanisms in cavity-based quantum states and explores ways to make these states more resilient through state engineering rather than hardware changes.Dr. Gao describes using standard, "vanilla" qubits and cavities, making their techniques accessible to other labs.3. Fundamental Questions and Quantum PlaygroundDr. Gao emphasizes the value of the circuit QED platform as a "playground" for exploring quantum phenomena, particularly entanglement and its quantification in real hardware.The challenge of visualizing and intuitively understanding quantum phenomena is highlighted, with experiments designed to make abstract concepts more tangible.4. Device Fabrication and AdvancementsDr. Gao's lab at NUS has developed in-house fabrication capabilities, gradually building up expertise and infrastructure.The field is witnessing rapid improvements in device performance, driven by advances in materials science and process integration.5. Multipartite Entanglement and Future DirectionsPlans for multi-cavity devices: Moving from single and two-cavity systems to three, enabling the study of tripartite entanglement and richer quantum dynamics.The potential for these systems to serve as both research tools and pedagogical aids, demonstrating quantum strangeness in a hands-on way.6. Synergy Between Science and TechnologyThe conversation explores the unique moment in quantum research where fundamental science and technological objectives are closely aligned.Knowledge flows both ways: curiosity-driven experiments inform processor design, while industrial advances in fabrication and control benefit academic labs.7. The "Perfect Quantum Lab" Thought ExperimentDr. Gao shares her wish list for a hypothetical, fault-tolerant quantum computer: to directly observe textbook quantum phenomena and simulate complex quantum behaviors in a tangible way.Memorable Quotes"We're very proud that we only use one qubit and one cavity... We tried to build in creative features and techniques from control and measurement perspectives to tease out interesting dynamics and features on the harmonic oscillator.""A lot of what we do is trying to find the most intuitive picture to capture what these abstract physical phenomena actually look like in the lab.""There's this nice synergy between the drive to make practical quantum processors and the more academic, curiosity-driven research focusing on the fundamental."Find this and other episodes at New Quantum Era's website or wherever you get your podcasts.

Volgende week komt het cijferseizoen serieus op gang (ASML!) en een indicatie wat wat komen gaat zijn de omzetcijfers van TSMC. De grootste chipfabrikant ter wereld, en klant van ASML, liet ijzersterke omzetcijfers over het tweede kwartaal zien. "Ik denk dat het voor de hele sector een positief teken is", zegt Thomas Pellegrom van ABN Amro. "Ze gaven aan dat de vraag naar AI-chips nog steeds hoger is dan het aanbod. "Ze bevestigden dat ze 100 miljard dollar extra gaan investeren in productiecapaciteit." Ook Corné van Zeijl ziet het positief in. "In het begin van dit jaar was er de angst omtrent DeepSeek, de Chinese AI-concurrentie, die angst is nu helemaal weg. De Magnificent Seven hebben het dit kwartaal weer heel goed gedaan, het geloof in deze sector is weer helemaal terug." Over de plannen om nieuwe eurobonds uit te geven, door de EU, verschillen de experts wel van mening. Thomas ziet een verdieping van de Europese obligatiemarkt wel zitten. Maar gezamenlijk eurobonds uitgeven is wat Corné betreft nog lang niet aan de orde. Laten de Zuidelijke landen eerst maar eens bewijzen dat ze hun financiën voor lange tijd op orde kunnen houden. Ver in de podcast onder andere aandacht voor de winstwaarschuwing van Shell, en de strijd die UniCredit voert om de Duitse Commerzbank in te lijven. Ze geven niet op, maar de experts verwachten dat de Duitsers zich tot het laatste moment zullen verzetten tegen inlijving door UniCredit. Uiteraard bespreken we ook de luisteraarsvragen en geven de experts hun tips. Corné geeft algemene (valuta)tip, Thomas tipt een ETF met de ISIN-code IE0006FM6MI8. Geniet van de podcast! VanEck ETF’s (advertorial) Deze week is ook weer het tweewekelijks gesprek te beluisteren met Martijn Rozemuller, ceo van VanEckETF’s, de partner van BeursTalk. Met Martijn bespreek ik deze week de plannen voor een nieuw handelsplatform van Euronext, speciaal voor ETF's. Daarnaast bespreken we de VanEck Quantum Computing ETF. Euronext heeft plannen om speciaal voor ETF's één handelsplatform op te zetten voor alle aangesloten Euronextbeurzen. Het lijkt erop dat daarmee een (te) dominante positie wordt gecreëerd, maar Martijn ziet toch vooral voordelen. Welke dat zijn hoor je, uiteraard, in het interview. In het tweede deel bespreken we een ETF die VanEck recent heeft gelanceerd, de VanEck Quantum Computing ETF. Quantum Computing is technologie die extreem geavanceerd en ingewikkeld is. Gelukkig is Martijn in staat dat in eenvoudige taal uit te leggen. Het lijkt op science fiction, maar die nu al realiteit is. En je kunt er dan ook met de VanEck Quantum Computing ETF in beleggen!

How do we prepare for a world where AI agents work together, networks think for themselves, and quantum teleportation is no longer just science fiction? I recently caught up once again with Vijoy Pandey, SVP and GM of Outshift by Cisco, live at Cisco Live in San Diego, for a wide-ranging conversation about what comes next at the edge of AI and quantum innovation. We begin with Cisco's evolving quantum strategy and the recent unveiling of its Quantum Network Entanglement chip, a research prototype capable of generating 200 million entangled photons per second over standard telecom infrastructure.  Vijoy explains how this chip, along with new research at Cisco's lab in Santa Monica, brings us closer to distributed quantum computing by connecting compute nodes and scaling quantum capabilities beyond the lab. Even more interestingly, these quantum foundations are already demonstrating value in classical use cases, such as eavesdropping detection and real-time coordination. Our conversation also explores the momentum behind agentic AI. Rather than single prompts triggering single outputs, the future lies in distributed ecosystems of intelligent agents that work together to solve complex business problems.  Vijoy introduces Cisco's vision for the Internet of Agents, supported by an open-source collective called AGNTCY. It is designed to help diverse agents communicate, collaborate, and operate with trust and transparency across cloud environments and organizational boundaries. Throughout our conversation, Vijoy focuses on the practical impact rather than hype. From network automation and SRE workflows to use cases in cybersecurity and infrastructure management, he highlights how these technologies are being applied in real-world scenarios, not just theorized. His team at Outshift is building the connective tissue that brings these innovations to life inside the enterprise. So what do you think? Are quantum networking and AI agents a part of your roadmap? And what steps can businesses take today to ensure they are building on trustworthy, open, and scalable foundations? Join the conversation and share your perspective.

The conversation covers the importance of co-design across the quantum stack, the challenges and surprises in improving qubit performance, and the vision for the next era of quantum research.KEY TOPICS DISCUSSEDMission of C2QA:The central goal is to build the components necessary to move beyond the NISQ (Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum) era into fault-tolerant quantum computing. This requires integrating expertise in materials, devices, software, error correction, and architecture to ensure compatibility and progress at every level.Materials Breakthroughs:Houck discusses the surprising impact of using tantalum in superconducting qubits, which has significantly reduced surface losses compared to other metals. He explains the ongoing quest to identify and mitigate sources of decoherence, such as two-level systems (TLSs) and interface defects.Co-Design Philosophy:The episode delves into two types of co-design:Vertical co-design: Aligning advances in materials, devices, error correction, and architecture to optimize the full quantum computing stack.Cross-platform co-design: Bridging ideas and techniques across different qubit modalities and even across disciplines, such as applying methods from quantum sensing to quantum computing.Error Correction Innovations:Houck highlights breakthroughs like using GKP states for error correction, which have achieved performance beyond the break-even point, thanks to improvements in materials and device design.Bosonic Modes and Custom Architectures:The conversation touches on leveraging native bosonic modes in hardware to simulate field theories more efficiently, potentially saving vast computational resources. Houck discusses the trade-offs between general-purpose and custom quantum circuits in the current era of limited qubit counts.Modular Quantum Computing:As quantum systems scale, the focus is shifting to modular architectures. Houck outlines the challenges of connecting modules—such as chip-to-chip coupling and optimizing connectivity for error correction and algorithms.Institutional Collaboration:Houck contrasts the long-term, foundational investment at Princeton with the national, multi-institutional mission of C2QA. He emphasizes the unique strengths universities, industry, and national labs each bring to quantum research, and the importance of fostering collaboration across these sectors.Looking Ahead:The next phase for C2QA will incorporate advances in neutral atom quantum computing and diamond-based quantum sensing, while ramping down some networking efforts. Houck also reflects on the broader scientific and practical motivations driving quantum information science, and the fundamental questions that large-scale quantum systems may help answer.NOTABLE QUOTES“There's a quasi-infinite number of ways that you can mess up coherence… If you're really only using one number, you'll never know.”“Some of the best ideas we have are taking approaches from one field and bringing them to another. That's what we call cross-platform co-design.”“A million-qubit quantum computer is basically a cat… as you build these systems up, you can start to really ask: do we actually understand quantum mechanics as it turns into these macroscopically large objects?”RESOURCES & MENTIONSCenter for Co-Design of Quantum Advantage (C2QA)Princeton Quantum InitiativeFor more episodes and updates, subscribe to The New Quantum Era.
