BTCCSquare news:
Researchers at Hebrew University and Los Alamos National Laboratory have cracked the code on cost-effective quantum encryption. Their new protocols—truncated decoy and heralded purification—leverage imperfect light sources, outperforming traditional laser-based systems by over 3 decibels. The breakthrough aligns with the BB84 standard, proving robust security doesn’t require flawless hardware.
Meanwhile, IonQ’s collaboration with Element Six marks a leap in diamond-based quantum hardware. Though details remain under wraps, the partnership signals accelerating progress in scalable quantum systems. These developments arrive as Hong Kong’s labs pivot toward applied quantum research, reflecting global momentum in the sector.
