This video discusses a method, reportedly created by Ash Kelly, for cracking 2048-bit encryption, a feat generally considered impossible without quantum computers [00:03, 01:13]. The presenter emphasizes that the credit belongs to Ash Kelly [00:37].
Here's a summary of the method described:
It aims to simplify the process of cracking 2048-bit encryption by narrowing the search space [01:36].
The process involves multiplying two 1,024-bit primes, square rooting the resulting 2048-bit prime, and analyzing a specific range around that square root using a "zeta mirror resonance field" to find the correct factors [05:19, 07:01].
The video demonstrates the calculation, asserting that the math is valid and the code used is straightforward [07:55, 08:11].
The presenter anticipates skepticism but presents the method as a potentially simple solution to a complex problem [02:11, 10:33].
