Although the state of one entangled particle can be instantaneously determined by measuring the state of the other entangled particle, the state itself cannot be transmitted faster than the speed of light. This is because measuring the state of entangled particles destroys their entanglement, so they can only be used to transmit one bit of classical information.
To transmit more complex information, the states of multiple particles would need to be entangled and manipulated in specific ways. So, while entanglement has the potential for fast, secure communication, it's important to note that it can't be used to transmit information faster than the speed of light.
