The challenge isn’t that they create more problems, it’s that we’re still learning how to harness them responsibly.

Fair question, any emerging tech should face scrutiny. But dismissing it outright misses the point. Quantum systems do have practical value today in materials research, cybersecurity, optimization, and sensing.

It presents ideas such as full transparency, gold-backed digital currencies, real-time tracking of global transactions, and enhanced asset security.

Scientists are racing to build post-quantum cryptography, new algorithms (like lattice-based or hash-based schemes) that even quantum devices can’t easily break.

If real-world tests succeed, this breakthrough could reshape global quantum communication networks, enabling ultra-secure links across continents and space.

A new study from the University of Technology Sydney shows it may be feasible to fire entangled photons from two ground stations to a satellite ~500 km up, even with atmospheric disturbance, sunlight, and background noise.

The goal: drive innovation, create high-tech jobs, and secure California’s position as the global hub for quantum progress.
