RGTI is in quantum computing. I know, I know, it isn't real, it might not ever be real, RGTI is small potatoes compared to IBM or google or anyone else.

Still it is literally going to be the best value play for anyone trying to break free from their peasant shackles and working their shitty jobs.

People want to shit on AI because iTs a bUbBle, but AI is the pinnacle of human achievement to date and it is only going to get better. Get out of your rabbit holes and you will see that AI has more to offer than pretending to be your girlfriend or therapist. Sure, it makes most of your college educations worthless. It's taking your coding jobs and forcing you to interact with real humans irl. It is also increasing our ability to perform accurate, high value research and make connections at a rate even faster than Irish emo Oppenheimer.

Why does this matter? RGTI is a niche company focusing on building quantum computing with vertical integration. Not only are they doing research on increasing quantum performance, they are creating their own infrastructure like hardware and software as well. Think of them like early day apple. Nowadays you have your laptop, desktop, phone, earbuds, internet, tv, health, etc all coming from apple. Now imagine if Tim Apple and Mike Wazowski were starting their company but instead of having to rely on autistic men and indians, they could do 10x the work thanks to AI.

If you think that mechanics and value and growth or any sort of rational logic is going to make you rich, you are mistaken. Your dd's, your technical analysis, your financial reports are all going the way of Buffet. Cool back in the day, but useless now. Buffet probably thought that Playboy was hardcore when it came out. Nowadays I can be in my very own gangbang and not have to smell feces thanks to vr. AI is not a bubble because what else is there? Quantum computing is going to be the next big breakthrough and RGTI is poised to be the nvda of the industry. If computers are fire, then AI is internal combustion and quantum is nuclear fusion. It is coming, it will be here before you know it, and it will change the world for better or worse. RGTI is trading at less than $20 a share and offers unlimited potential.

My quantum plays are RGTI, IONQ, QNC, and IBM.

Post Analysis Summary

The poster presents a highly narrative-driven bullish thesis on Rigetti Computing (RGTI), centered not on traditional financial valuation but on a bet that “the next major technological breakthrough after AI will be quantum computing,” and argues that because RGTI is focused on quantum computing and has integrated hardware and software capabilities, it could become an iconic winner in the field, similar to early Apple or Nvidia. The post acknowledges that quantum computing is still viewed by many as immature and far from commercialization, and that RGTI is very small compared with giants such as IBM and Google, but the poster frames this “small and early” status as a source of valuation convexity, arguing that if the industry truly enters an explosive growth phase, the low share price and small-company profile could provide greater upside imagination. The evidence chain mainly relies on industry analogies and a technological-roadmap narrative: AI has already improved the ability to accelerate scientific research, connect information, and conduct high-value research, so the R&D efficiency of quantum computing companies may be amplified by AI; RGTI is not merely doing isolated research, but is vertically integrating around quantum processors, cloud access, the software stack, and related infrastructure, which the poster views as analogous to Apple-style ecosystem integration. The post has no image attachments, so there are no charts, position screenshots, or financial models as support. The poster mentions that their quantum-related names include RGTI, IONQ, QNC, and IBM, but does not disclose specific positions, cost basis, option structures, price targets, or time horizon; the only clear price anchor is the claim that RGTI is “below $20/share,” describing it as an opportunity with “unlimited potential.” The valuation framework is essentially absent; the poster even explicitly dismisses the importance of traditional DD, technical analysis, and earnings reports, arguing that in the face of technological waves such as AI and quantum, traditional rational frameworks will fail. Potential catalysts include progress in the quantum computing industry, AI-driven acceleration of R&D efficiency, RGTI continuing to expand the availability of its quantum systems and cloud platform, and rising market risk appetite for the “next NVDA” narrative. The most important weaknesses also come from these assumptions: first, the commercialization timeline, usable applications, and economic value of quantum computing remain highly uncertain; second, RGTI’s revenue base is very small, it is loss-making and under significant R&D spending pressure, and its valuation already embeds fairly high expectations; third, giants such as IBM, Google/Alphabet, cloud platforms, and other quantum companies may have greater advantages in capital, talent, customers, and ecosystem; fourth, the poster does not prove that RGTI’s technical path will win, nor explain the leap from “quantum will be important” to “RGTI will become the biggest winner.” Overall, this is a bullish RGTI post driven more by emotion and grand narrative than data verification, with the investment thesis depending on an early arrival of a technological revolution, RGTI delivering on vertical integration, and the market continuing to be willing to pay a high valuation for a long-dated quantum vision.

Discussion Summary

The comment sample is very small and mostly unsupportive of the poster. Higher-scoring comments argue that if betting on quantum, IBM or Google would be more likely choices, while small companies like RGTI are long-term capital sinkholes; others point out that RGTI’s technology remains highly experimental, it burns cash quickly, and its revenue path is unclear. Another comment mentions having profited from puts during the decline from higher levels and believes the stock could still fall further. No substantive response from the OP was observed.

Fact Check
supported
RGTI is a company focused on quantum computing and involved in both hardware and software/cloud platforms.
Company materials show that Rigetti builds quantum systems, offers the QCS platform, Quil/SDK and other software tools, and develops quantum processors and related systems, broadly supporting the poster’s description of a full-stack/vertically integrated company.
supported
RGTI trades below $20/share.
The captured quote page shows RGTI at about $16.35 around 15:06 Eastern Time on May 18, 2026, indeed below $20; however, intraday prices can change.
unsupported
RGTI could become the NVDA of the quantum computing industry and has unlimited potential.
This is the poster’s long-term analogy and emotionally driven judgment. Existing public financial data only show that the company has a very small revenue base and remains loss-making, and do not prove that it will become an industry leader or replicate NVDA’s trajectory.
supported
RGTI is advancing quantum performance and system scale, and has recent system/product progress.
The company’s Q1 2026 release states that the 108-qubit Cepheus-1-108Q became generally available across multiple platforms, and mentions Novera QPU sales, cash position, and no debt; this supports that it is still advancing its technical roadmap, but it does not mean commercialization is already mature.
unclear
AI will significantly accelerate the R&D of quantum companies like RGTI, making quantum breakthroughs arrive very soon.
AI-assisted scientific research may have real-world value, but the poster provides no evidence that RGTI is internally using AI to improve R&D efficiency, nor any verifiable basis for a quantum computing commercialization timeline, so this causal chain remains speculative.
