What is Factor?

FACTOR is a decentralized infrastructure protocol that rewards real mathematical problem solving through Useful Proof of Work (uPoW). It transforms cryptographic mining into an open marketplace for integer factorization, accessible to researchers, miners, developers, and institutions that want to advance applied mathematics and computational cryptography. Unlike traditional Proof of Work networks such as Bitcoin, where energy is spent on arbitrary hashing to secure the chain, FACTOR redirects that same computational effort toward solving meaningful mathematical challenges.
