Idemia partners with KT to support 2026 quantum-resistant cryptography pilot transition project

Idemia Secure Transactions said on Oct. 26 it will support a 2026 pilot transition project on quantum-resistant cryptography in which KT is participating. Under the project, Idemia will implement U.S. NIST-standardised and Korean quantum-resistant cryptography algorithms on a smart card platform applying quantum-resistant SIMs. It said the work will help protect defence communications systems by preparing for threats that could emerge as quantum computing advances.

Nvidia tests technique to cut physical qubits needed for error correction by 90 percent

Nvidia carried out a 104-qubit quantum computing simulation on Germany’s Jupiter, Europe’s first exascale supercomputer, and tested a technique that could cut the physical-qubit resources required for error correction by 90 percent. The study focused on efficiently preparing magic states through Magic State Cultivation under noise conditions close to real quantum hardware. Nvidia used GH200-based systems and scaled workloads to 8,192 GPUs, with cuQuantum and CUDA-Q software platforms.

Starknet community backs review of shift to \'quantum-resistant layer 1\'

The Starknet community overwhelmingly backed a proposal to review a plan to shift the Ethereum layer 2 network into an independent layer 1, The Block reported on Wednesday. In a seven-day Snapshot vote that closed on Wednesday morning, more than 93.5 percent of voting power supported the proposal, with about 2,800 wallets taking part. StarkWare did not vote and left the decision to the community. Further research and another vote by STRK holders would be required for an actual transition.
