Topic: Quantum Hashing (Read 1885 times)
Apart from the qubit count being a bit of a quantum leap I'm pretty sure I read that quantum computers can only partly solve SHA hashes. So it does reduce the strength, but the bit count could just be increased to mitigate when/if it becomes plausible.
Heh, I think this requires a bit more than a few thousand dollars and some programming experience.
128 qubits is a bit beyond what is believably feasible. It sounds like there is some salesmanship going on here.

I just ordered some parts to build my own mining rig but there is always a new technology on the horizon. I'm not the most technically inclined but was wondering if something such as the D Wave Onehttp://www.dwavesys.com/en/products-services.html would be a viable option for mining?
That sounds amazing!
You wouldn't make any BTC with it though I'd imagine.
Unless you have a couple hundred thousand dollars laying around and have lots of programming experience, that isn't going to help you.
