    I assume we need a lot of breakthroughs to even have useful quantum computing at all, but sure.

    Isn’t quantum encryption interesting for end users?

      Quantum encryption isn’t something quantum computers can even do. It’s not just transforming bits into other bits, it’s about building entirely new security properties based on physical properties of matter.

      So, even if it is interesting for end users, they would need dedicated hardware anyway.
