Episode 150: Colton Dillion and Rick Carback on Crypto, Quantum, and the Open Compute Marketplace
Episode 150
Monday, 28 September, 2026
In Episode 150, Colton Dillion and Rick Carback of Postquant Labs join Patrick and Ciprian to introduce Quip Network, a decentralized, open source protocol designed to commoditize quantum compute the way CUDA democratized GPU access. The team dig into the four core problems facing quantum today: unclear benchmarks, high education costs, closed ecosystems, and fragmented talent. Quip Network addresses these by creating a bid based marketplace where quantum operators can monetize unused capacity, and consumers can access compute without needing a quantum PhD. The conversation covers proof of useful work, where solving optimization problems and random circuit sampling both benchmarks hardware and earns compute credits, as well as how hybrid quantum classical computation fits into the architecture. Rick weighs in on the cryptographic timeline, estimating a 10% probability of a cryptographically relevant quantum computer by March 2028, and what that means for securing Bitcoin and Ethereum wallets today.
