Do you understand his tweet?

Is he developing a quantum computer?

[mk4]

Go ask him on Twitter.

[firstquantumcomputer]

Go ask him on Twitter.

Can somebody ask him? That would be huge.

[Youghoor]

Go ask him on Twitter.

Hahahahaha... Exactly!  People usually ask unnecessary questions on this forum all the time. How can we know what Elon Musk is planning regarding the manufacturing of a quantum  computer?  As mk4 said, you can personally find out from Elon Musk yourself on  Twitter...

[TastyChillySauce00]

just tweeting randomly like that and people already assuming here and there. if Elon really want to build quantum computer then let him be, I'm sure that the whole crypto community will bring a counter measure against quantum computer in the future though that might bring massive change to the whole crypto.

[threadsupport]

Maybe he read this posts:

I do not know why people think that Bitcoin security will stop as is and too worried about quantum computers.  It maybe a threat but I am sure, Bitcoin developers will find way to level Bitcoin's security up before that happen.

That's not an issue. Bitcoin developers have already post quantum solutions.
But there are lots of 'shalecoins', https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5134441.0 coins with no owner. With quantum computers, these coins will become active and change the Bitcoin ecosystem.

Satoshi had already thought of the quantum computers, and the possible decoding of the privatekeys if it became available, ..

His coins would be quantum secured, if he sent them to P2PKH addresses. But he did not and isn't doing.

2. Satoshi created the greatest prize competition and the privatekeys are somehow within the blockchain. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5150688.0

and privatekeys are somehow within the blockchain = quantum computer?

We will get the answer with quantum computers. As soon as possible.

Move your coins from old addresses to make them quantum secure.
'Shalecoins', coins with no owner ' https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5134441.0 will be 'fracked'..

Quantum computers will surprise the Bitcoin community. The 'shalecoins' will be moved and will become active.

Yes, it is possible.

Wait, wait.

@firstquantumcomputer, are you Elon Musk?

Well does that make a difference. ?
The quantum computers are already there , even if they decide to develop then it would already be developing a existent thing and this would be a good market for them , the competition actually increases the quality and we would be unfortunate in that it would be bad for the blockchain and the wallets .
Hopefully the security and the legalization issues are taken care of before taking any step like this.

The difference is: who will have the first quantum computer with enough qubits?

Quantum computing boost for IBM but Bitcoin stays safe https://decrypt.co/16211/quantum-computing-boost-for-ibm-but-bitcoin-stays-safe
IBM has doubled the power of its quantum computer but Bitcoin's encryption is still far from being broken.
"IBM has doubled the power of its quantum computer. At yesterday's CES 2020 conference, the company announced it had successfully achieved a Quantum Volume of 32 using its 28-qubit quantum computer known as Raleigh."
"As a network built entirely around cryptographically secured transactions, it stands to reason that a sufficiently powerful quantum computer could eventually crack the encryption used to generate Bitcoin private keys. However, according to a June 2017 paper by Martin Roetteler and several co-authors, such as a machine would need to command approximately 2,500 qubits of processing power to break the 256-bit encryption used by Bitcoin."

He's too busy doing Tesla and other things.  Plus quantum computing is way in the future and we shouldn't make that affect what we do now especially since it will affect much more than Bitcoin if it ever is developed.

[Naida_BR]

I am sure he does.
He has stated a lot of times that he is towards innovations and he always searches for ways to improve not only his company's wealth but to improve the mankind living.

[franky1]

elon musks priority is public utility.
by this i mean space transport
human transport
goods transport
electric generation

seems elon musk wants to make peoples living costs cheaper.
less taxes because gov aint paying large sums to service the international space station
less electric bills
less fuel bills
less travel costs

though quantum is a new industry. its not something thats gonna be consumer ready any time soon
the equipment needed to sheild a QC from light, heat and magnatism to remove as much interference to get a good measure of the things involved in QC makes it not a small object to have on a desk
(your grandkids wont have a quantum smartphone)

so i dont see elon getting in on the QC game just like he hasnt got into the 'cloud storage' computing game
he isnt into the science of terraforming mars. he is interested in the taxi to mars industry.
so i dont see him caring for the utility of QC for sciences. unless QC becomes expensive to lease hours of remote use. .. then he might just buy a few and sell time on it cheaper

[zelikman]

I am sure he does.
He has stated a lot of times that he is towards innovations and he always searches for ways to improve not only his company's wealth but to improve the mankind living.

I'm not so sure about that.
Is this the first time I've heard of it, can anyone confirm it?

Re: Is Elon Musk developing a quantum computer?

Maybe Elon Musk read that post

Satoshi knew that one day quantum computers will exist and will be able to move the early mined coins (P2PK) and created an unofficial prize competition to accelerate the development.

Maybe Satoshi created the greatest prize competition and the privatekeys are somehow within the blockchain.

Our guess is that he knew that the early mined coins will be moved one day. So he created a 'prize competition'. Otherwise he could move the coins to quantum resistant P2PKH addresses, but he did not and is not doing.

The only question is:

Who will win the race and get the early coins?

Quantum computing or solving the "Satoshi Prize Competition".

Nobody can stop that race.

Quantum mechanics was harder than all my other courses combined, but so incredible

[Sirait]

^ maybe, but he kept it a secret from the public and only for personal use. we have all seen what Elon has produced and many people think Elon is not from Earth. so I don't think it will be difficult for an Elon musk to create a quantum computer.

[Goingmerry8393]

I'm not sure about that, but he was once a CEO dogecoin 

[Negotiation]

I agree with you all because I don't think Elon Kasturi is developing a quantum computer We all know he met her on Twitter. And why would he hide if he had developed in the public space? If Alan Kasturi develops a quantum computer there will be a lot of changes in the way crypto works.

Re: Full Bitcoin node in Tesla? It is possible!

Crypto enthusiasts proved a long time ago, that their creativity knows no bounds. After a lot of exclusive gadgets, it’s time for a car that is able to fully support the Bitcoin network. Can cars be the future of cryptocurrencies and an alternative to expensive equipment...
