How it is scored

Resolves VERIFIED if, by 31 Dec 2026 (plus grace), Fujitsu and/or RIKEN have launched a superconducting quantum computer with at least 1,000 physical qubits, announced as operational for research or customer use. PARTIALLY_VERIFIED if the launch falls in Japan's fiscal year 2026 but after the calendar year (January to March 2027), or if a 1,000-qubit chip is shown but not launched as a working system. NOT_VERIFIED otherwise.
