IBM’s new 120-qubit experiment marks a leap forward, advancing technology that could one day crack Bitcoin’s encryption.

Qubits differ from classical bits, which are coded as only 0 or 1. A qubit can be a combination of both 0 and 1 simultaneously. One way to think of it is as a coin spinning between a 0 and a 1 axis.
