Quantum computing is often framed through extremes: either as an imminent disruption to every system, or as a technology too distant to matter. In our interview with Professor Giancarlo Gatti, we take a more grounded view: What primitives does quantum mechanics actually provide?

Quantum computing is often framed as a threat to crypto, but the risk is long-term, not imminent. Today’s networks remain secure, yet institutions are already planning for future cryptographic upgrades.

Colorado is a national leader on quantum. And we continue pushing the boundaries of what is possible in quantum. We held a Quantum Summit at the Governor’s mansion with leaders from across our state — our leadership is being recognized at the federal level with Colorado’s designation as a TechHub for quantum. We are proud of this significant recognition, which stemmed from a competitive national process, and we expect an equally successful Phase 2 application, unlocking up to $70 million in federal resources for the region. To further boost quantum technologies here in Colorado we’re excited to pursue legislation that will provide meaningful incentives to support Colorado as a leader in quantum.

Quantum computing is coming. Google’s recent breakthrough in quantum computing serves as a great reminder that, while we don’t know exactly when, quantum computing is on its way—and it’s closer than we might have thought. The implications for the current blockchain space could be far more severe than we can imagine. Why? Because when quantum computers become operational, security methods that currently take hundreds of years to hack could be broken in minutes. Like the turkey oblivious to the 1001st day, failing to anticipate the risks posed by quantum computing could leave us vulnerable to devastating consequences when the time comes. At StarkWare, we’ve anticipated this risk and developed STARK, a proving technology for blockchains that is quantum-resistant. This cutting-edge innovation currently powers Starknet (BTCFi arc). If you want to stay ahead of the curve and future-proof your systems, now is the best time to migrate your stack to a STARK-powered one. As the inventors of this technology, we believe our team is uniquely positioned to assist you with this migration. Moreover, we are more than open to collaborating with the Ethereum Foundation and other relevant parties to build Ethereum’s quantum resistance as soon as the community is ready.

We tend to view reality through a materialist lens, assuming everything is ultimately made of matter. But consciousness remains one of the biggest challenges for that worldview. Ivette Fuentes, a professor of quantum mechanics, suggests that the mind may exist in a different "arena" from the physical world.⁠ ⁠Watch the full interview:

MUST WATCH!!!! John Preskill John Preskill- the world's leading authority on quantum computing - sits down with Brian Greene in an interview from just two months ago. Expect major drawdowns in the hype-driven names: $IONQ $RGTI $LAES $QUBT $QBTS Preskill, who serves as Director of Caltech’s Institute for Quantum Information and Matter (IQIM), was also named 2025 Academic Pioneer in Quantum by the Quantum World Congress. Key takeaways from his remarks: “A realistic timeline for quantum computing is 20 years.” “He has amplified the hype around quantum supremacy” This is a reality check, and it’s going to hit hard. Full interview available now on YouTube.

Quantum computing and Bitcoin is a nuanced conversation. The risk isn't uniform across the network, and the game theory around how a quantum capability would actually be used matters just as much as the technology itself. Richard Carback of Postquant labs, joined BitGo's High Roller Summit to break it down.

Ethereum Researcher Justin Drake, who co-authored Google's recent quantum paper: "I've stopped thinking about post-quantum as a hurdle that we have to overcome, and I think of it more as an opportunity. It's an opportunity for Ethereum to stand out as the very first global financial system that is post-quantum secure — not just relative to its competitors, but also relative to fiat and tradfi." Justin also believes quantum presents an opportunity for Ethereum to become the best version of itself: “The move to post-quantum is essentially a rewrite, and that’s a massive opportunity to start with a clean slate and wipe our technical debt.” The rewrite bundles post-quantum security with a new ZK virtual machine (LeanVM) that can snarkify the entire consensus layer in real time. The result is that the Ethereum L1 can scale to 10,000 TPS at 1 gigagas/second — while simultaneously becoming quantum-secure. Source: Bankless (Mar 2026)

Into the quantum realm we go with the brilliant Prineha Narang. Narang earned her PhD in applied physics at Caltech, taught materials science at Harvard and now has her own lab at UCLA. The lab focuses on quantum materials, non-equilibrium dynamics, photonics, quantum information science and other easily digestible areas. Beyond her academic career, Narang is a science advisor to the government and a venture capitalist at DCVC. As you might imagine, we get into quantum computing and quantum technology in this episode. Quantum vs. AI, the US vs. China, when quantum tech will break encryption, quantum sensing and whether or not quantum technology actually has a bright future. The quantum sensing portion of the chat was all new to me and rather astonishing. Since Narang is also a competitive runner and mountaineer, we provide some top tips on gear because that is just the kind of all-purpose podcast that we deliver. Timestamps 0:00 Intro 2:16 The physicist who runs marathons 14:03 Cold-emailing her way into IBM 33:02 Did AI steal quantum's thunder? 46:28 Google's encryption bombshell 57:20 The US vs. China quantum race 1:06:48 Quantum sensing: who sneezed? 1:22:28 Should students still bet on quantum? 1:30:38 When does quantum get real? 1:34:54 The gear tip

Quantum computing has long been viewed as a transformative technology, but recent breakthroughs suggest its impact may arrive much sooner than expected. At the center of growing concern is the prospect of Q-Day—the moment when a sufficiently powerful quantum computer could crack the public-key encryption that underpins global banking, government communications, military networks, cryptocurrencies, and much of the modern internet. As advances in quantum hardware, error correction, and algorithms accelerate, governments and technology companies are racing to prepare for a post-quantum world. In this interview with Cris Sheridan on the IFA Life podcast, Woodley B. Preucil, CFA, Senior Managing Director at 13D Research & Strategy, discusses why the timeline for Q-Day may have compressed dramatically, the geopolitical competition driving investment in quantum technologies, and what the coming transition means for cybersecurity, national security, and investors. Listen to the full interview here: The interview is also available to 13D clients on our media page.
