Let’s get to know the Justin Sun Prize—a prize that will be paid to those who can solve world-level mathematical problems 🏆

Imagine difficult math problems being posted to a public registry, along with prize money that’s locked on the Blockchain. Whoever proves them gets credit. Whoever turns the proof into code that a machine can verify gets another portion of the reward 🧮

The Justin Sun Prize divides contributors into two roles: the ones who create the proofs and the ones who do Formalization. Humans, AI, and hybrid teams can all participate. The money will be paid once the machine verifies the proof passed every line

This idea was built upon Paul Erdős’s approach, in which he once set up prize money for mathematical problems on his own, and then adapted it to fit the era where AI can explore proof strategies much faster

This is also directly connected to Justin’s own source of wealth. The Blockchain industry grew from mathematics such as Elliptic Curve and Hash Function. Setting rewards is a way of sending resources back to support the foundational work that helped build this industry

The most interesting part is the list of proof papers that the community already accepts and is waiting to be formalized. This list could evolve into a public map of knowledge that humans have discovered—but machines can’t verify yet, along with prize money that invites people worldwide to help continue the work

In my view, transparency will determine the future of this prize. If everyone can review the problem, the rules, the proof results, and the funds locked on the chain, this system could become a new infrastructure that truly connects crypto funding with basic research 🔥
