Scientific prizes do not just honor the past. They fund the future.
Alfred Nobel turned private wealth into a century-long institution. Landon T. Clay offered $1 million for each Millennium Problem. Yuri Milner created a $3 million mathematics prize.
Now,
@justinsuntron is extending that tradition by introducing a new model: reward both the person who proves a theorem and the person who turns that proof into machine-verifiable code, with the funds locked onchain.rewarding both theorem provers and proof formalizers.
Its most interesting feature is not the name. It is the attempt to transform unsolved mathematics into a public map of work for humans and AI.
If governed transparently, this could become a bridge between crypto wealth, foundational mathematics and knowledge that ultimately benefits society.
