    IQT The Quantum Dragon Podcast Episode 89 – Is anyone still listening?

    I try to keep these podcasts to about 20 minutes, but Q-CTRL just has way, way, way too much going on. So go grab yourself a fresh cup of Joe, kick back in your favorite chair, and relax as Alex Shih, VP of Product at Q-CTRL, and I speak about Q-CTRL’s growth, Ironstone Opal for GPS-free navigation, Boulder Opal for quantum control, Fire Opal for error suppression, Black Opal for learning, and so much more. Alex Shih (LinkedIn) Q-CTRL (website) Q-CTRL (LinkedIn) Ironstone Opal Boulder Opal Fire Opal Black Opal I couldn’t find everything I referenced during the recording, but here’s a bunch of stuff I’ve written about Q-CTRL over the years. Now that I look at the list in its almost-entirety, I’ve probably written more about Q-CTRL than any other company, quantum or otherwise. This is definitely not a complete list. 5/25/2026 Q-CTRL’s Fire Opal on IonQ [premium] 3/29/2026 #wellplayed [premium] 3/24/2026 #82: This podcast is out of control.

    IQT The Quantum Dragon Podcast Episode 88 – It’s already blinking red.

    I spoke with Rebecca Krauthamer, CEO and Co-Founder of QuSecure, about the implications of the post-quantum cryptography (PQC) market splitting between early movers and laggards on the laggards, the bestowing of US military standards for QuSecure’s civilian customers, the difference between NIST standards and US military standards, the benefits of AWS Qualified Software Certification, why Forbes keeps recognizing QuSecure as one of America’s Best Startup Employers, and more.

    IQT The Quantum Dragon Podcast Episode 87 – Your entropy isn’t random enough.

    I spoke with Denis Mandich, CTO of Qrypt, about his former-CIA point of view about quantum and cryptography, how Qrypt generates identical keys at multiple endpoints, why a non-certified single QRNG isn’t good enough, how the emergence of entanglement-based quantum networks would change his sales pitch, Nvidia’s role in Qrypt’s non-computing quantum technology, non-cryptographic QRNG applications, and more.

    IQT The Quantum Dragon Podcast Episode 86 – Millions of Qubits in a 6U Form Factor

    I spoke with Jason Lynch, CEO of Equal1, about the actual size of the Bell-1 silicon spin quantum computer, when we’ll see a breakthrough in qubit counts, quantum networking the devices together, shrinking the system from 22U to 6U, power consumption, democratization, and more.

    IQT The Quantum Dragon Podcast Episode 85 – We can solve problems 43 million times bigger than anyone else.

    I spoke with Toby Cubitt, Co-Founder and CTO of Phasecraft about why we need algorithms when we don’t have hardware to run them on, a claim of 43,000,000X greater efficiency, the skillset needed to do what they do, quantum phase estimation (QPE) without controlled unitaries, the secret ingredient of their secret depth-reducing sauce, and more.

    IQT The Quantum Dragon Podcast Episode 84 – How to Future-Proof “Quantum-Safe”

    I spoke with Eric Hay, Senior Vice President of Field Engineering at Quantum XChange, about single-use private keys, the prevention of retrieval after they’ve been used, secure key exchange, the architectural solution to the potential vulnerability in post-quantum cryptographic (PQC) protocols, the continued use of symmetric keys on the same channels on which they were exchanged, and more.

    IQT The Quantum Dragon Podcast Episode 83 – This podcast has an open architecture.

    I spoke with Matt Rijlaarsdam, CEO and Co-Founder of QuantWare, about trying to be the Intel of quantum, mass production versus custom foundry and packaging services, the advantages of a 3D chip architecture, a bold claim about “exponentially more compute power per watt and per dollar,” the upper limit of qubit density, physical footprints, and driving down prices.

    IQT The Quantum Dragon Podcast Episode 82 – This podcast is out of control. But, fortunately, ….

    I asked Mr. Carman about teaming up with QuantWare and Q-CTRL to offer the Quantum Utility Block (QUB), Qblox Qubit Lab, Oxford Quantum Circuits’ (OQC) logical qubits, market leadership, physical footprint and power consumption, and the strategy behind hosting webinars. I apologize for some minor audio issues that I couldn’t edit out.
