DAC makes case for quantum-resistant blockchains as Italy unveils first annealing quantum supercomputer

Italy has inaugurated its first quantum supercomputer and an industrial quantum annealer, Volta B1, at the Digital Innovation Forum in Cernobbio on Lake Como. The systems were built under the supervision of Q-Alliance. A Forum panel addressed quantum computing, HPC, supercomputers and blockchain, with DAC's Head of Innovation among speakers from academia, research and technology institutions. DAC, an EVM-compatible Layer-1, positions itself around quantum resistance, using Proof of Quantum Work and quantum entropy, and argues that networks securing real assets must prepare as quantum machines enter national infrastructure.
