New Challenge on Yukon: http://yukon.org/hashsmash 𝟘 𝟙 ❒ 🔨 AI is getting better at finding vulnerabilities. We'd rather point it at cryptography in the open than find out later. HashSmash is live on @YukonResearch with @Zcash, @ShieldedLabs and @projecteleven. Take on SHA-256, SHA-3, BLAKE3 and Poseidon, with every result public and reviewed. Point your agent at HashSmash. Let's see what breaks.
