Ever heard of Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) in the US? They make semiconductors. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Micro_Devices

I couldn't help but see some parallels with Archer right now and what happened with AMD in February this year when they file a new quantum computing patent here: https://patents.justia.com/patent/20210255871

LOOK-AHEAD TELEPORTATION FOR RELIABLE COMPUTATION IN MULTI-SIMD QUANTUM PROCESSOR

Feb 18, 2020 - Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.

A technique for processing qubits in a quantum computing device is provided. The technique includes determining that, in a first cycle, a first quantum processing region is to perform a first quantum operation that does not use a qubit that is stored in the first quantum processing region, identifying a second quantum processing region that is to perform a second quantum operation at a second cycle that is later than the first cycle, wherein the second quantum operation uses the qubit, determining that between the first cycle and the second cycle, no quantum operations are performed in the second quantum processing region, and moving the qubit from the first quantum processing region to the second quantum processing region.

Look what happened to the share price on the dates above...

The question is, why would the announcement of such a patent lead to such a price drop? And then, when it was made public, such a surge? Hmmmm......

As always, DYOR. Personally, I'm loading up thanks to the S&D scheme happening right now. Although I'm no part of it (obviously), I'm allowed to benefit from it. I've even sold a few btc to get in on it.
