N.L. cabinet quietly approved new cash benefit for departing ministers
Newfoundland and Labrador cabinet ministers are now eligible for extra money on their way out the door, CBC News has learned. The provincial cabinet has approved a new transitional allowance policy for ministers, which came into effect April 1 — just months before a scheduled provincial election. There has been no public disclosure of the decision before now. Executive Council — which is responsible for the overall operations of the provincial government — confirmed the existence of the new policy in response to inquiries from CBC News. The decision could put tens of thousands of dollars in the pockets of some departing ministers. Since the beginning of April, eight cabinet ministers have either already left or signalled their intentions to not run again when voters go to the polls this fall. According to Executive Council, the transitional allowance policy is designed to provide financial support when a minister leaves office due to resignation, retirement, death or losing an election. It applies only to the ministerial portion of their salary. That's currently $48,664 per year. The premier is paid more: $65,168. WATCH | N.L. cabinet approves new benefit for outgoing ministers: The new policy provides one month's salary for each year of service in cabinet, on a prorated basis, for a minimum of three months and a maximum of 12 months. For ministers, that's a minimum payout of around $12,000, up to the full annual salary of $48,664. Ministers eligible for allowance and severance pay Executive Council won't say when the decision was made, noting that it was a decision of cabinet and those deliberations are protected. Officials indicated it aligns with the new MHA transitional allowance, which has similar terms and applies to the $95,357-a-year salary for members of the House of Assembly. All current cabinet ministers are also MHAs. But there are key differences between the two policies. The new MHA transitional allowance policy for departing members replaces the previous severance allowance. However, the new ministerial policy is an additional benefit stacked on top of the existing severance policy for ministers. The existing severance policy sees them continue receiving their salary up to the end of the month in which they depart, plus one additional month's pay. Premier's office says Hogan wasn't involved in decision Premier John Hogan was not made available for an interview this week. Spokesperson Ben Murphy sent an emailed statement Thursday evening. "Premier Hogan was not in cabinet when the decision was made, and he was not involved in the decision," the statement said. Hogan stepped aside from his cabinet portfolio after announcing his ultimately-successful run for the Liberal leadership in March. He was sworn in as premier in May. Meanwhile, there were no replies to a CBC News message sent to the legislative email addresses of every current cabinet minister.

This Unstoppable Cryptocurrency Is Now As Big As Amazon, and It Could Soar By Another 10,500%, According to Strategy's Michael Saylor
Key Points Bitcoin is the world's largest cryptocurrency, and its valuation topped $2.4 trillion last Monday, placing it alongside tech giants like Amazon. Michael Saylor turned his software company, formerly MicroStrategy, into the world's largest Bitcoin treasury company over the last few years. Saylor says Bitcoin is headed for an eye-popping $273 trillion valuation by 2045, but that prediction will run into some serious challenges. 10 stocks we like better than Bitcoin › Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN) was founded in 1994 to sell books using the internet, and it quickly became an e-commerce pioneer which now offers more than 600 million different products. Its expansion into other businesses like cloud computing, streaming, and digital advertising helped catapult the company's valuation to an eye-popping $2.4 trillion. But last Monday (July 14), Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) briefly surpassed $2.4 trillion in market capitalization when the value of a single coin rocketed past $123,000. The cryptocurrency was introduced in 2009, so it reached the milestone even faster than Amazon, which is remarkable for an asset that doesn't produce any revenue or earnings. Furthermore, Bitcoin is now worth more than Alphabet, Meta Platforms, and even Tesla. Bitcoin might still have room to run. Strategy's (NASDAQ: MSTR) Michael Saylor predicts that the price of a single coin could top $13 million by 2045, translating to a whopping 10,500% upside from Monday's peak. How realistic is that target? Read on to find out. Saylor says Bitcoin will transform the global financial system So far, Bitcoin hasn't proven to be very useful as a currency because of its high volatility relative to traditional currencies like the U.S. dollar. But a growing number of investors consider it to be a good store of value for the following reasons: Bitcoin has a capped supply of 21 million coins, so it's a scarce asset, similar to gold. It's fully decentralized, so it isn't controlled by any person, company, or government. It's built on a secure, and publicly verifiable system of record called the blockchain. Saylor, who founded the software-turned-Bitcoin treasury company formerly known as MicroStrategy, believes that "tokenizing" every physical asset in the world onto the blockchain would create transparency and also solve some of the inefficiencies in the current financial system. For instance, buying real estate comes with high legal fees because most properties have an opaque history that requires tedious research to uncover. But if we placed every real estate transaction on the blockchain, records would suddenly become transparent and verifiable by any prospective buyer. Saylor says he thinks Bitcoin would be the perfect reserve asset for the tokenization process because of its decentralized nature. This means Bitcoin would be the currency everybody uses to buy, sell, or transfer tokenized assets. Therefore, anyone who wants to participate in this new financial system will have to use the cryptocurrency at some point, creating an organic source of demand that could drive its price higher. Bringing Saylor's vision to life won't be easy because it will require global cooperation. But President Donald Trump has a very pro-crypto agenda, so the world might follow if the U.S. government were to lead the way by creating a legal framework with rules and standards. $13 million per Bitcoin implies a sky-high (and potentially unrealistic) valuation According to Saylor, there are about $500 trillion in global assets eligible for tokenization. He believes they can be shifted onto the blockchain by 2045, which would create enough demand to send the price of a single Bitcoin soaring to $13 million. That would be a whopping 10,500% increase from Monday's peak of about $123,000. However, $13 million per Bitcoin would translate to a fully diluted market capitalization of $273 trillion (based on its total supply of 21 million coins). That means the cryptocurrency would be worth a whopping nine times more than the output of the entire U.S. economy, which was $29.7 trillion last year. It would also be 66 times more valuable than Nvidia, which is currently the world's largest company thanks to its market cap of $4.2 trillion. As a result, I think Saylor's target is unrealistic. Even if his vision became reality and all of the world's assets were tokenized onto the blockchain, Bitcoin would only soar in value if every person held on to their coins after selling an asset. As I alluded to earlier, Bitcoin isn't a great everyday currency. Only 6,600 merchants worldwide accept it as payment for goods and services (according to crypto directory Cryptwerk), so people would have to convert their coins back to fiat currency to carry on with their lives. Therefore, the pool of people who are purchasing Bitcoin to acquire an asset would be met with an almost equal number of sellers, leading to a potentially neutral -- not increasing -- value. Could Bitcoin eventually become a widely adopted currency? In my opinion, Bitcoin will never be a true global currency. Every economy operates at a different speed, which is why some countries have stronger fiat currencies than others. Australia and Vietnam have much weaker currencies than economic powerhouses like the U.S., which helps them compete on the global stage by making their exports more attractive to larger trading partners. If every country adopted Bitcoin, the smallest economies would be thrust onto a level playing field with the likes of the U.S., which would damage their exports and dent their citizens' quality of life. This is one reason several countries might be inclined to reject Saylor's plan for tokenization on a global scale. But that doesn't mean Bitcoin is a bad investment right now. The total value of all above-ground gold reserves currently stands at $22.4 trillion, so that could be a realistic target for Bitcoin's market cap if a growing number of investors continue to view it as a legitimate store of value. It would result in a price-per-Bitcoin of $1,066,000, implying a potential upside of about 770% from Monday's peak. There's no guarantee that this scenario will play out, but I think it has a better shot at becoming reality than Saylor's forecast. After all, it's important to remember that Strategy owns 601,550 Bitcoin worth about $71 billion, so Saylor has a very big incentive to issue bullish predictions.

Small, room-temperature quantum computers that use light on the horizon after breakthrough, scientists say
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Scientists have demonstrated that a photonic qubit — a quantum bit powered by a particle of light — can detect and correct its own errors while running at room temperature. They say it is a foundational step toward scalable quantum processors. In a new study published June 4 in the journal Nature, researchers at Canadian quantum computing startup Xanadu created a so-called "Gottesman–Kitaev–Preskill" (GKP) state directly on a silicon chip. GKP states are a type of quantum state that spreads information across multiple photons in a pattern that enables small errors to be spotted and corrected. This means that each qubit is capable of correcting itself, without needing to be bundled into large arrays of redundant qubits — a common requirement in today's error-correction methods. It marks the first time this type of error-resistant quantum state has been generated using a process compatible with conventional chip manufacturing, the scientists said. The breakthrough suggests that error-correcting quantum states could be produced with the same tools used to manufacture conventional computer chips — bringing reliable, room-temperature quantum hardware a step closer to reality. The qubit-cooling conundrum Quantum computers work very differently from the classical machines we use today. Classical computers store information in binary bits, represented as either 1s or 0s. Quantum systems, meanwhile, use qubits that can exist in a "superposition" of both states. This enables them to solve complex calculations in parallel, and they can one day perform far beyond the reach of conventional systems. But qubits are notoriously fragile. Even the smallest fluctuations in temperature, electromagnetic radiation or environmental noise can disrupt a qubit's state and corrupt its data. To guard against this, many quantum systems operate at temperatures close to absolute zero (minus 459.67 degrees Fahrenheit or minus 273.15 degrees Celsius) using complex cooling systems to maintain "coherence" — the fragile quantum connection through which qubits perform calculations. Related: Coldest-ever qubits could lead to faster quantum computers While this cooling helps preserve quantum information, it also makes quantum computers bulky, expensive and impractical to scale. Xanadu's solution seeks to address this by using photons — particles of light that don't require deep cooling — to build qubits that run on silicon chips at room temperature. The team's GKP demonstration tackles another key challenge: quantum error correction. Most quantum systems today rely on groupings of multiple physical qubits that work together to detect and fix errors, known as a "logical qubit." Xanadu's photonic qubit sidesteps this by handling correction within each individual qubit, simplifying the hardware and paving the way for more scalable designs. "GKP states are, in a sense, the optimal photonic qubit, since they enable logic gates and error correction at room temperature and using relatively straightforward, deterministic operations," Zachary Vernon, CTO of hardware at Xanadu, said in a statement. RELATED STORIES —'Reliable quantum computing is here': Novel approach to error-correction can reduce errors in future systems up to 1,000 times, Microsoft scientists say —'Quantum hard drives' closer to reality after scientists resolve 10-year-old problem —World's 1st mechanical qubit uses no light or electronics. It could lead to ultra-precise gravity-sensing tech. "This demonstration is an important empirical milestone showing our recent successes in loss reduction and performance improvement across chip fabrication, component design and detector efficiency." The result builds on Xanadu's earlier development of Aurora, a modular quantum computing platform that connects multiple photonic chips using optical fiber. While Aurora addressed the challenge of scaling across a network, this new chip focuses on making each qubit more robust — a critical requirement for building fault-tolerant systems. Xanadu representatives said the next challenge was reducing optical loss, which happens when photons are scattered or absorbed as they travel through the chip's components.
