JUSTIFIEDCONFIDENCE4/5QTEX is up 15.7% with a fresh 3.92% five-minute surge after independent 20 mK testing confirmed its cryogenic interconnect’s microwave performance. The company is also finalizing a binding definitive agreement with the testing company, making the catalyst concrete and commercially meaningful despite undisclosed terms.
