I don’t know jack shit about quantum computing. There are many stonks out there on it. Is this a tendie printer waiting in the wings if I’m willing to buy this shit now and wait until til 2040? QC will upend all cryptography and encryption right? It will destabilize crypto coins, no? How is this not the next internet?
What is WSB take on quantum? Is this a playable event in our lifetime?

so instead of cyber sex we can have quantum sex? I’m in
post-quantum cryptography already exists and will be pretty easy to implement
If u don’t know what it is stay away from it fam
Or go all in on 0dte quantum calls that works too
Just like fusion it technically is a thing, but not only is it not ready no one really knows if it ever will be.
I’m a physicist and never heard anything too positive about quantum computing from people who work on it, so I stay away. I think it’s just hype after people realizing that ai stocks existed for a while and all blew up out of no where, and they wanted to get in on the next big thing early.
It MIGHT be a thing kinda widely used by like 2035-2040. Maybe longer. It’s just not super viable right now considering how extreme conditions have to be for them to operate
the problem is QC is so bad rn that to make money you have to hope you pick the right companies, and then hold for potentially decades when you could be profiting on other things. and while QC will obviously be really useful if they get it working to a production level, so will things like nuclear fusion, but who knows how far we are from either
We think that quantum is simultaneously playable and unplayable at the same time, as long as you don’t read our answers.
I work in the field and it is full of grifters and hype. Way too early for anybody these companies to be publicly listed (with the exception of big tech whose focus is elsewhere). Ionq, rigetti, and co are just burning through retails money
The field is still having trouble coming up with algorithms that would make a fully working, scalable quantum system valuable
Will look like a regard if it doesnt work out but a genius if it does
