Quantum computers with 50 logical qubits are expected to emerge within the next five years, according to Sebastian Hassinger, host of The New Quantum Era podcast and author of the book by the same name. He believes this will be a "point of no return," after which classical simulation methods will become ineffective. Hassinger shared this forecast during a special edition of the Quantum Computing Report in a conversation with Yuval Boger, Chief Commercial Officer of QuEra Computing. The expert, who spent about 10 years at IBM Quantum and AWS, focused on his own consulting project, The New Quantum Era, starting in early 2026. According to Hassinger's assessment, the technology development roadmap will be as follows: Short-term: Advantage of neutral atom systems; Medium-term: Dominance of superconducting qubits; Long-term: Emergence of spin and photonic solutions. Hassinger noted that platforms based on neutral atoms show excellent scaling and error correction (LDPC codes), but their "Achilles' heel" remains a lower operational clock speed compared to superconducting systems. Boger described his colleague's forecast as "conservative," recalling recent successes by Harvard and QuEra in demonstrating 48 logical qubits. He referred to the opinion of QuEra's CTO Vladan Vuletic, who extended his confidence horizon in the leadership of neutral atoms from five to 10 years.  Boger also emphasized that thanks to new algorithms and memory efficiency (where the ratio of physical to logical qubits can reach nearly 2:1), the industry will not require millions of physical qubits to achieve practical supremacy. In May, Quantum Machines announced a median accuracy of 99.5% for two-qubit operations on Rigetti's commercial superconducting processor Novera.  On June 1, D-Wave Quantum revealed plans to develop a fault-tolerant quantum computer with 100 logical qubits by 2032.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin introduced a concept for recreating synthetic assets based on options instead of traditional debt positions. He believes this approach will eliminate forced liquidations and reduce reliance on high-speed oracles. The developer noted that current DeFi protocol models are vulnerable during sharp market downturns. The use of secured debt leads to cascading liquidations, which create excessive pressure on the network and market prices. The proposed scheme is built on a pair of assets (P and N) with a strike price S and an expiration date M. They are issued by splitting 1 ETH and can be redeemed at any time. At expiration, an oracle records the index value, and funds are distributed between the owners of P and N. “Since the total payout is always 1 ETH, the possibility of liquidation is absent,” Buterin emphasized. The main advantage of the model, according to the programmer, is its resistance to manipulation. Existing protocols require real-time price updates, creating security risks and MEV vulnerabilities. The option structure allows for the use of "slow" oracles, similar to those used in prediction markets. To maintain stable exposure (e.g., pegging to the dollar), Buterin suggested using deep-in-the-money options with regular automatic rebalancing through a DAO or local scripts. Among the potential drawbacks of the concept, the developer highlighted: the risk of slippage during frequent rebalancing (costs can reach 2% per year); quadratic deviation from the target index; the complexity of implementing effective on-chain automation. Buterin added that he would feel “much safer” holding algorithmic stablecoins built on such an architecture, rather than those based on latency-sensitive price feeds. In early March, Ethereum's founder introduced a plan for two key changes to the network's execution layer: transitioning to a binary state tree and the long-term replacement of the EVM. In March, Buterin called for the ecosystem to be restructured around privacy and AI.
