We believe incentivization of mathematical breakthroughs is one of the most important and exciting problems a Bittensor subnet has ever addressed. This educational video explains why.
@MacroBombastic@Crypto_McKenna We provide incentivization to solving these problems and create a shared resource layer, check us out @ https://t.co/2j5iFNnB7U
AI is now driving the most significant progress in 50 years on what many consider mathematics’ hardest open problem.
Conjectures fuels breakthroughs like this and rewards the people pushing them forward.
We asked an unreleased research version of Claude to take a stab at the Riemann hypothesis.
It didn’t solve it, but it did make strides on a related problem: it increased the lower bound for the fraction of zeros of the Riemann zeta function that satisfy the hypothesis from 41.6% to 67.2%.

This explains simply our 2 paths to revenue: scientific breakthroughs and software optimization. Formal verification connects them both by making every result objective, trustworthy and rewardable.
We’re excited to announce that our miners have closed two published open-conjecture targets with Lean-verified submissions: the Grechuk variant of Erdős Problem #10 and Ben Green’s Problem #29. This comes less than one day after opening mining!
1. Erdős #10, Grechuk variant: Are there infinitely many even integers that cannot be written as a prime plus at most three powers of 2? A miner proved yes by formalizing Crocker’s covering-congruence construction and the required parity reduction.
2. Green's problem #29: Must every K-approximate group A contain a polynomially large S ⊆ A with S⁸ ⊆ A⁴? A miner proved no, constructing a counterexample with K=3 in ℤ × H for sufficiently large finite H.
Both submissions passed our production verifier and Lean’s kernel. The Erdős result formalizes an older mathematical construction; the Green #29 counterexample gives a negative answer to the published question. Our open competition turned open conjectures into machine-checked solved mathematics.

An internal version of our next major model produced 10 new results on long-standing open problems in mathematics and theoretical computer science, using roughly $2,000 worth of tokens at GPT-5.6 Sol API rates.
yes, nonsofic groups exist: this statement is one of many new beautiful results proved by Astra, our next major model.
We're releasing 10 such Astra proofs, complete with lean certificates and CoT walkthroughs for each of them. The results are wide-ranging, from von Neumann algebras (disproof of Connes' Rigidity Conjecture) to better bounds for high dimensional sphere packing, for circuit complexity, for monochromatic triangles in multicolored graphs, and more.

Anthropic breaking cryptography with their proprietary models begs the question, is stronger and newer cryptography a must?
The answer is yes, and at Conjectures we are incentivizing the mathematical breakthroughs that makes new and stronger cryptography possible.
New Anthropic research: Discovering cryptographic weaknesses with Claude.
Claude Mythos Preview has helped our researchers find weaknesses in cryptographic algorithms—the mathematical methods that are used to keep data private.
