Hi /sci/,
I was reading about prime factorization and how only quantum computers have an algorithm which can do it in a reasonable timeframe. Apparently if it becomes practical for very large numbers it could be used to break RSA.
I've just devised a method for doing so. Running on a Celeron G1820 at 2.7ghz it gave me results for 256-bit numbers within a few seconds. I'm going to call it probabilistic prime oscillation for the time being.
Post some numbers so I can factor them and prove it. In the meantime, would anyone like to let me know how this is useful for breaking RSA?

Thanks, now I have to rewrite it for over 256 bits.

pls try C++ or anything else
Sorry guys, went out to buy some coke.

Yeah, I was bullshitting, but I do have an idea for a method. Wondering if it's really worth the time building. What's the practical application for it?

If you can factorize prime numbers you can get private keys back from public keys. That means you could easily reposes unclaimed bitcoins. If you break one of the private keys for a 100-bitcoin wallet, that's a few hundred thousand dollars.

You could also break SSL/TLS or any crypto that wasn't based on ECC. You could read government e-mail, grant yourself a multi-million dollar zero-interest loan from a major bank, steal account data for celebrities (plz leak Aidy Bryant nudes). Things like that.
Those are more involved, however, and higher-hanging fruit.

You could finally prove that the jews are behind the lizardman.

Oh, shit. Right then. Better get to work.
I'll be back when and if I have a working algo.

Hey, OP, that's really interesting. Want to discuss it in detail over some polonium flavored coffee?

This, or even better, C with the gnu bignum library.

That's lame. You're lame.
I had a method I worked on several years ago that used a technique I could only describe as "number folding". I abandoned it along with all of my other projects at the time (long term relationship ended, had a mental breakdown, took me a year to get back into math, haven't touched anything from back then).
I think you should do it now because one day you might be too burned out to do it.
