Hi,
Not sure if this is the right place to post this but...
I understand that D-Wave has a developed an adiabetic quantum computer. Google and Lockheed Martin have both purchased these computers from D-Wave recently.
Could such a quantum computer (or perhaps future versions of it with more qubits) crack Bitcoin's encryption? I don't really understand enough about quantum mechanics or cryptography, which is why I'm asking PF people here :P
Thanks a lot!
