Summary I invested in IonQ well before quantum computing became one of the most followed sectors among retail investors. Last October, I booked a ~400% gain.

The first is to determine whether IonQ has a durable advantage in trapped-ion quantum computing. The second is to evaluate if IonQ is on the right track to meet its technological roadmap.
