Actually, it is not possible to transmit information faster than the speed of light using quantum entanglement, even if you have multiple entangled particles. This is because, while changing the state of one entangled particle will change the state of the other particle, there is no way to control the state it will change to. Therefore, it is not possible to encode information using entangled particles in a way that allows for faster-than-light communication.
To transmit information using entangled particles, you would still need to transmit the state of one of the particles using traditional means, such as radio waves or fiber-optic cables. While the entangled particles can be used to confirm that the message was received without being intercepted, the actual message still has to be transmitted using traditional means.
