Quantum Internet Takes Shape as New York Bets on Entanglement
For more than half a century, the internet has evolved by making classical bits move faster, cheaper, and more efficiently. From copper cables to fiber optics, from dial-up to 5G, every leap has been an optimization of the same fundamental principle: encoding information as zeros and ones. Now, that foundation is beginning to shift. The next phase of internet evolution will not rely on bits at all, but on quantum states—fragile, powerful, and governed by the strange laws of quantum mechanics. In December 2025, New York took a decisive step toward this future by announcing a $300 million investment aimed … Read more
