VANCOUVER, BC, June 5, 2025 /CNW/ -- Equity Insider News Commentary – A breakthrough in quantum computing has just collapsed the timeline for breaking encryption. According to a new report in NewScientist, quantum computers may soon be able to crack RSA — the backbone of most modern encryption — in just 8 hours using 1 million qubits. That's a staggering leap from earlier estimates of 20 million qubits, and it's prompting experts to warn that a quantum-cryptography reckoning could be closer than anyone thought. Analysts at Grand View Research expect the post-quantum cryptography market to grow at 37.6% annually through 2030, while Research and Markets projects an even steeper CAGR of 41.47%, hitting US$17.69 billion by decade's end. For retail investors, the shift is already creating new entry points, with recent developments from innovators including Scope Technologies Corp. (CNSX:SCPE.CN) (OTC-BB:SCPCF), Palo Alto Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ:PANW), WISeKey International Holding AG (NASDAQ:WKEY), SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ:LAES), and Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. (NASDAQ:CHKP).
