Quantum computing, the new kid on the block(chain) 🚀! US labs, including MIT's Lincoln lab, NASA, and Los Alamos, have teamed up with DARPA to explore quantum computing's potential in finance. The dream? Quantum computers that can predict market movements with mind-boggling accuracy. The reality? Well, it's a bit fuzzy. While quantum computing may revolutionize chemistry and material science, its advantage in finance remains unclear. But don't sell your Bitcoin just yet! Companies like Rigetti, Microsoft, Google, and IBM are still betting big on quantum advantage. So, who knows? Quantum supremacy might just be a few qubits away!
