$IONQ IonQ just led a
$110M round for Horizon Quantum (SPAC via
$DMYY → soon
$HQ.X).
Why it’s smart:
Horizon’s software auto-converts classical code to quantum & works on ANY hardware (including IonQ’s trapped-ion systems)
Deal includes Horizon buying IonQ quantum computers → instant revenue + real-world validation
IonQ deploys a tiny slice of its
$3.5B cash pile to lock in a key software partner and accelerate ecosystem growth
Win-win: more developers → more workloads → more IonQ system sales.
Classic flywheel play in a sector that’s finally heating up.
