💰 QUANTUM STOCK TRACKER 💰
South Korea Moves Forward with IonQ
South Korea Taps IonQ for National Quantum Center of Excellence (source)
A Powerful Partnership: KISTI will lead the development and operation of a quantum computing service and research platform, designed for both academic and industrial use.
100-Qubit System on the Horizon: IonQ is expected to deliver an advanced 100-qubit quantum system, which will form the core of the new center's research and computational capabilities.
Hybrid Cloud Integration: A key part of the collaboration will be the development of a hybrid quantum-classical cloud environment, integrating the new quantum systems into a private cloud for remote access by researchers and developers.
Takeaway: This partnership marks a significant step for South Korea in building a sovereign quantum ecosystem. By bringing in a leading player like IonQ, KISTI is accelerating its timeline to provide researchers and industries with access to cutting-edge quantum hardware, fostering domestic innovation and talent development in a globally competitive field.
More Quantum Names in Public Markets
SuperQ lists on the CSE, trades under “QBTQ” (Source)
Market debut: Following a fundamental change transaction, SuperQ began trading on July 10, giving public investors a new pure-play quantum ticker.
Hybrid platform: The company’s “Super” service orchestrates quantum annealing, gate-based QC, and HPC behind a ChatGPT-style interface.
Democratizing pitch: CEO Muhammad Khan envisions a “ChatGPT moment” for quantum—putting advanced compute power in the hands of non-experts.
Takeaway: Investor appetite for quantum remains strong; SuperQ’s listing underscores the sector’s push to commercialize user-friendly, hybrid quantum solutions.
Satellite Quantum Communications Enter New Experimental Phase
Columbia’s “HyperQ” lets many users share one quantum computer (Source)
Quantum Virtual Machines: HyperQ creates isolated quantum virtual machines (qVMs), enabling different users to run their programs concurrently without interfering with each other.
Reduced Wait Times and Increased Throughput: The system has been shown to reduce user wait times by up to 40 times and increase program throughput by as much as 10 times, all without degrading the performance of the quantum computer.
Software-Based Solution: HyperQ is a software hypervisor, meaning it can be implemented on existing quantum computing hardware without requiring physical modifications.
Takeaway: The one-user-at-a-time model has been a significant bottleneck in the usability of current quantum computers. HyperQ represents a pivotal shift towards a more practical and cloud-like quantum computing paradigm, making these powerful machines more readily available for researchers and developers to accelerate progress in fields like drug discovery and materials science.
