A real IBM quantum computer attacks a tiny crypto key. Live, versus a coin flip.

Raced against /dev/urandom through the same math. The key lights up only when the chip wins.

re-runs the post-processing on the 8,192 published draws of QC-0008, right here.

Rerun it on your own free IBM account: the steps are in Docs.

KEY RECOVERED only when the chip hits the key at least 2.0× as often as /dev/urandom over the same 4,096 shots. Set on day 0. Never tuned.
