A new hope of quantum computers for factorizations of RSA with a thousand-fold excess

Universal quantum computers are still in its infancy that cannot achieve practical applications (code-cracking) in near term. Other than Shor algorithm, novel quantum computing ways for breaking public-key cryptosystem are required. The dedicated quantum computer, D-Wave machine, can find approximate answers for exponential-level problems in computer science, which is intractable for classical counterparts. Thus, the new fire of development will be soon lit in the area of practical code-cracking in a new quantum computing way.
