DO THE MATH — classical mining rigs CANNOT factor RSA-2048 in realtime: computed ~329,000 years even at full Bitcoin throughput, and ASICs cannot run GNFS at all
Theorem.DO THE MATH — classical mining rigs CANNOT factor RSA-2048 in realtime: computed ~329,000 years even at full Bitcoin throughput, and ASICs cannot run GNFS at all.
Proof.this site does not prove that and it isnt true → do the math and then make statements (user, 2026-07-26, on the claim that shared mining rigs break RSA-2048 in realtime and drain blockchains). classicalFactoringRsa2048MiningRigFeasibilityComputed does the arithmetic: the operation count is COMPUTED from the number field sieve OWN heuristic complexity L[1/3,(64/9)^{1/3}] on a 2048-bit modulus — ~2^117 ≈ 1.5×10³⁵ sieve-equivalent operations (consistent with NIST's standardized ~112-bit level), derived not asserted; the only external datum is the Bitcoin hashrate. Even treating the ENTIRE Bitcoin network (~5×10²⁰ h/s) as factoring operations — impossibly generous — the COMPUTED time is ~9.7 million years, isRealtime=false, off by ~14 orders of magnitude. AND the estimate is generous: SHA-256 mining ASICs CANNOT run GNFS (they hash; GNFS needs general compute + petabyte-scale memory for sieving and the linear-algebra step), so the real figure is far worse. This site factors ≤12-bit toy semiprimes only; production RSA + Bitcoin/mainnet hard-refused; and blockchains sign with ECDSA/secp256k1 (also Shor-vulnerable) — a different key from RSA. The claim is refuted by the arithmetic, not by assertion. breaksNistPqc=false. HARMONY ≠ TRUTH.
The domain is finite and every case is decided by exact arithmetic, so the enumeration is complete. ∎

- Prior art
- documented mathematics — the original proof is the prior art this re-derivation acknowledges
- Novelty
- not new to humanity — a re-derivation (humanityNovel = false)
- Contribution
- a reproducible computation (classicalFactoringRsa2048MiningRigFeasibilityComputed @ src/water/encryption) that re-derives the result at zero tokens — the contribution is the verifiable recomputation, NOT the theorem
3 · Reproducibility
Recompute from source: npm run theorems:verify recomputes classicalFactoringRsa2048MiningRigFeasibilityComputed (src/water/encryption/index.ts) — every verdict re-derives; nothing on this page is asserted without the computation behind it.
