Quantum computing stocks are experiencing significant momentum in 2025, with several companies seeing massive speculative gains despite limited revenue. Three notable stocks - Rigetti Computing, BTQ Technologies, and Churchill Capital Corp X - represent different stages of quantum technology development and investor interest.
