Hey Everyone,

It may sound like an incredibly boring thing that there has never been a formal mathematical proof that finding the prime factors of very large numbers doesn't have a more efficient algorithm than simply trying every single one of them. Nevertheless, to this day, encryption keys and indeed blockchain-based cryptocurrencies hinge upon how computationally hard it is to find these large prime factors. And yet, no one has ever proven that there is not a more efficient way.
