For example, this will allow it to be connected to the JUPITER exascale computer in the future, potentially enabling breakthroughs in areas such as artificial intelligence (AI) and quantum optimization. JUPITER, which is currently being built close to JUNIQ at the FZJ, is expected to surpass the threshold of one quintillion calculations per second. This will be the world\u2019s first coupling of an annealing quantum computer with an exascale supercomputer, providing a first-of-a-kind opportunity for tackling the world&#8217;s toughest computational problems.<\/p>\n<p>JSC&#8217;s system will be upgraded to D-Wave&#8217;s next generation Advantage2\u2122 quantum processor unit (QPU), once it becomes available. The Advantage2 system is expected to deliver significant performance gains with doubled coherence, increased connectivity and a 40 percent boost to the energy scale for advanced problem solving.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe D-Wave Advantage system has played a pioneering role in the development of quantum optimization, both through its contribution to breakthrough research and the development of enterprise-grade solutions across numerous industries,\u201d said Prof. Thomas Lippert, director of JSC. \u201cD-Wave stands alone as the only quantum vendor solving real-world problems today, and we\u2019re thrilled to be the first HPC center in Europe to own its groundbreaking annealing quantum computer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith D-Wave&#8217;s innovative technology, the integration of the system into JUNIQ and its future coupling with the exascale supercomputer JUPITER, we will take the use of quantum technology in J\u00fclich, and on behalf of Germany and Europe, to a new level,\u201d said Prof. Kristel Michielsen, head of JUNIQ &amp; Quantum Computing at JSC. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20250213452729\/en\/Forschungszentrum-J%C3%BClich-Purchases-D-Wave%E2%84%A2-Quantum-Computer-Becoming-First-High-Performance-Computing-Center-in-the-World-to-Own-D-Waves-Advantage%E2%84%A2-System\">https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20250213452729\/en\/Forschungszentrum-J%C3%BClich-Purchases-D-Wave%E2%84%A2-Quantum-Computer-Becoming-First-High-Performance-Computing-Center-in-the-World-to-Own-D-Waves-Advantage%E2%84%A2-System<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The speed of process is so fast that it is mind-boggling.<\/p>\n<p>Notice that some suspect that quantum chips may be a threat to cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h2 class=\"fl-heading\"><span class=\"fl-heading-text\">QUANTUM \u2018PUTERS, CRYPTOS, HACKERS, AND \u201cSOUND MONEY\u201d<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>February 24, 2025<\/p>\n<p>Remember when crypto-currencies first came out?

Among them are: Will Bitcoin replace gold? Is Bitcoin as valuable as gold? Will nations just accumulate Bitcoin, will they just accumulate gold, or will they accumulate both? Will governments embrace Bitcoin? What about the US dollar? Will it be replaced by Bitcoin? Is it possible that the US Dollar will still be the world\u2019s reserve currency well into the Great Tribulation? How about Bitcoin? Is something similar to Bitcoin prophesied in the Bible? Dr. Thiel addresses these world news items in light of Bible prophecy. He uses scriptures that address the status of the US Dollar\u2019s value during the Great Tribulation as well as the use of a Bitcoin, like crypto currency, by the Beast of Revelation 13. Is it possible that both gold and Bitcoin will be useless as a hope for salvation? Dr. Thiel gives the prophetic answer to that question at the end of this video.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Here is a link to our video: <a id=\"video-title\" class=\"yt-simple-endpoint style-scope ytd-grid-video-renderer\" title=\"Bitcoin ... as good as gold?\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=V-Mt8TZV12s\" aria-label=\"Bitcoin ... as good as gold? by BibleNewsProphecy 36 views 13 hours ago 15 minutes\">Bitcoin \u2026 as good as gold?<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Do NOT place your confidence in Bitcoin, the US dollar, silver, or gold, but \u201cseek first the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/GospeloftheKingdomofGod.pdf\">Kingdom of God<\/a>\u201d (Matthew 6:33).<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<p><em>Some items of possibly related interest may include:<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cogwriter.com\/short-work.htm\">Preparing for the \u2018Short Work\u2019 and The Famine of the Word<\/a>\u00a0What is the \u2018short work\u2019 of Romans 9:28?
