IonQ Inc (IONQ) News

I think he’s going to try to slink off to Russia with boxes of cash ie Marcos ,for Putin and Iran proxies to continue the terrorism from Russia. I hope he takes him out and ends it

And let’s not forget that we also acquired I D Quantique and Lightsynq. 5 corps. All within the last year ! These guys are rocking and rolling on the fast track.
Life in the fast lane.
Surely make you find your mind
Life in the quantum lane
Everything, All the time
Ah haa !

Keep your 👁️ on . 👁️onQ

As long as we get half cash and half stock in the acquiring corp. , I’m good with that.

Open A I. Sam has been to the White House quite often. Now Msft grumbling. lol. ( what happened to Quantinium ? ) But Msft did get him started . Open AI For profit now. I would think he’s gonna need some help from IonQ’s Forte Enterprise and Tempo daisy chained now! thru NKT photonics and Oxford Ionics. With Cappella Space being added soon we should be getting some huge gov contracts. We’re looking more and more like a takeover target. Where’s our poison pill?

bets on if iran really negotiates peaceful accord?

usa air refueling tankers and planes capable of carrying bunker buster munitions seem ominous.

iran's proxy attacks on usa forces in the area around iran/iraq/etc imply probable reaction explanation for usa. also , threats against uk. uk is only g7 to get trade deal from t before his return to wh.

how to remove the clerics with as little injury as possible to ordinary innocents/opposition to the regime? they could retire and go monastic with government turned over to some elected person acceptable.

very likely this regime would use human shields to protect their desired assets.

where are john kerry's family and bill gates' daughter's relatives, etc?

irony?

otherwise, kaku tells much about seemingly secret and unknowable information or too difficult to understand information.

who got this contract you mention?

kona , since you've read m kaku, you know he mentions scientific concern to display too much evolution of our science as being provocative to alien species desire to knock us out before we gain the ability to knock them out. see the world against iran thinking right now. also:
geminiai:japanese: kakushita hide/hidden?



Show thinking
Yes, you are correct!

??? (kakushita) is the past tense, plain form of the Japanese verb ?? (kakusu), which means "to hide" (something, transitive verb).

So, ??? (kakushita) literally means:

"hid"
"have hidden"
"that which was hidden" (when used to modify a noun, acting like an adjective).
Example:

????????? (Kare wa okane o kakushita.) - He hid the money.
?????? (Kakushita basho.) - The hidden place / The place he hid.
If you're looking for the intransitive form (to hide oneself or something is hidden), the verb is ??? (kakureru). Its past tense is ??? (kakureta).

?????? (Kare wa kakureta.) - He hid (himself).
?????? (Kakureta basho.) - A hidden place (where something is hidden).
So, for "hide" or "hidden," kakushita is definitely one correct and common way to express it, specifically in the past tense and when referring to something being hidden by an agent.

Got a new book from Malia for Fathers Day. Quanta Fields. Sean Carroll. You read it Doc? I’m also reading Quantum Supremacy / Michio Kaku for the second time in 2 years. Check them out. Knowledge is power.

controlling the high ground always seems to be an important aspect of command and control. but now it seems control of bottom to top is optimal. like networking layers.

over the horizon tech might now be deployed? followers of this board probably read a lot of sci fi ......using archeological studiesis t, science, nat geo tv, how might you push the envelope to obtain a non-violent or a violent resolution to the conflict? is there any scenario where the clerics regime survives? separation of church and state as seen from the eyes of people who lived under the tyranny of their wedded state. america, uk, japan, holy roman empire, soko, asia including china where the communist leader tried to forge a new little red book oligarchy, etc.

Nuts.

And Russia may help Iran cause more chaos. Disruptions to oil supply drive prices higher and that benefits the Russian war machine.

At this point, anything hopping iin the sector is great for us

IONQ seems to be lagging behind RGTI today, which was up more than 10% earlier, on low volume.

Hopefully, this starts trending up soon in a big way.

hopefully Capella will bring in more revenues using ionq technology 
whats the curent valuation of ionq ? 11 billion ???
good luck 

Yep Blue. The Dream Team is setting this up to surpass NVDA. Etc etc They are all seasoned professionals and know what it will take to accomplish surpassing Nvda/Apple/ Msft etc etc Their plan is coming together very nicely. The cherry on top will be the Capella Space acquisition. If/when that is approved. Katie Bar the Door! All ahead full steam. There will be no stopping us. We will have multiple rev streams. All the others? Not so much. We will have all the patents in /for machines and networks, and communications. Space. The next frontier. We will control it. Beam me up Niccolo. We got this.

we are in the top ofnthe second inning 
3 big acquisions recent one for a billion dollars all of this needs to come together and that i suspect will take a little more timei for one like  what i seeand will continue 

good luck ionq for the win ionx for the kill !!!

For a "comparison" today, see Investor's Business Daily, week of June 16, 2025, page A7. Two articles:

 1) "How D-Wave Is Making Waves In Quantum Computing Market" with its annealing model, but "is open about plans to develop gate model quantum computers."
2) "Nvidia Focuses on Europe For Next Big AI Offensive"

And then there is Barron's, June 16, 2025 at page 17:

"Undoubtedly, the best hedge against AI disruption is the company empowering it all, Nvidea."

Presently, we are profitable in all major companies mentioned in both IBD articles, including D-Wave, Nvidea(entry in 12/2009 at split-adjusted $0.43 per share), IONQ, Siemens, RGTI, MSFT, IBM, QUBT, PLTR, NVO......

What we have here. Is a failure to communicate. Ionq wants to communicate. But it’s got to get its QKD right. I’m shakin it Boss I’m shakin it !
Get your mind right.

🔮 Final Thought

IonQ won’t make missiles, but its technology could power the brains behind missile defense systems — helping them think faster, act smarter, and communicate more securely.

Would you like a concept sketch or roadmap for how IonQ could be integrated into a missile defense architecture like THAAD or Patriot 2.0?

Yep. We have way more rev streams than any other quantum co. None of the others even come close. Too numerous to mention. To newbies. Do your homework Read all prs back 18 months minimum. Knowledge is power.

Today by closing time of the market:

IonQ was down by 2.25%

Qbts (DWave) was down by 4.47%

Rgti (Rigetti) was down by 5.79%

Why do you think DWave is doing so well?

What's the basis of comparison do you have?

how might ionq be paid for using their ip in a cuquantum simulation architecture


ChatGPT said:
When IonQ licenses its IP (like quantum circuit optimizations, pulse-level control methods, or simulation algorithms) for use within NVIDIA’s cuQuantum simulation toolkit, their remuneration could follow several common tech/IP licensing models:

💰 1. Up-front Licensing Fee
A fixed payment from NVIDIA to IonQ for the right to embed IonQ’s IP within cuQuantum. This is typical of “licensing of proprietary technology” deals, where fees often run into the low-to-mid millions per contract

dcfmodeling.com
.

🔄 2. Per-use or Tiered Subscription Payments
IonQ could charge NVIDIA per simulation run (e.g. per-GPU execution) or via subscription tiers—such as enterprise-level access to premium modules. This resembles their QCaaS usage-based model (fixed + variable fees based on usage) .

📈 3. Royalty or Revenue Share
IonQ might receive a percentage of cuQuantum revenues when their IP is used in commercial or enterprise contracts, similar to technology transfer deals or strategic partnerships .

🔧 4. Joint R&D or Co-Development Payment
They could enter a cost-sharing arrangement, where both parties fund further development of the licensed IP. Payment may align with development milestones and be recognized over time based on effort expended

✅ How This Maps to IonQ’s Accounting Model
Based on IonQ’s SEC filings and revenue recognition rubrics:

Up-front fees ? recognized over time (straight-line) or as milestones are met.

Usage-based royalties or subscriptions ? variable; recognized as used.

Co-development & consulting ? treated as performance obligations, revenue recognized based on progress (effort-to-effort)

🧩 Example Scenarios:
Model Implementation in cuQuantum
Fixed license NVIDIA pays $2?M upfront for commercial use rights.
Usage/Subscription $X per simulated quantum operation or tiered library access.
Royalty/Revenue Share IonQ earns a % of annual cuQuantum licensing revenue.
Co-development plus consulting Both contribute funds; IonQ helps with integration and optimization.

✔️ Bottom Line
NVIDIA could structure payments to IonQ for cuQuantum IP in a flexible, modular fashion—leveraging fixed license fees, per-use charges, revenue shares, consulting retainers, or combos thereof. IonQ would then recognize that revenue according to GAAP rules: straight-line over license term, variable as usage occurs, and co-dev revenue based on progression
