Quantum computing has returned to the forefront of market attention over its potential impact on blockchain security after bitcoin slipped to around $63,000. AT&T expanded its contract with D-Wave Quantum and integrated quantum annealing into network optimisation algorithms, saying tasks that took 1 hour can now be completed in 15 seconds. The development coincided with weakness in cryptocurrencies and forced liquidations, while executives and researchers flagged faster timelines for quantum threats to cryptography.

Younglimwon Softlab said on Tuesday it has started a next-generation enterprise resource planning project for construction machinery parts manufacturer Jinsung TEC. The project focuses on upgrading the existing system, standardising companywide processes and building an integrated operating framework. Based on Younglimwon Softlab\'s K-System ERP, it will integrate core functions including production, quality, sales, exports, procurement, imports, logistics, costing, profitability, accounting, budgeting, finance, HR and payroll, while linking groupware, MES and EDI systems.
