“ A recent paper, “Fast Factoring Integers by SVP Algorithms” by Claus P. Schnorr, claims significant improvements in factoring that “destroys the RSA cryptosystem”.”

“ Claus Peter Schnorr recently posted a 12-page factoring method by SVP algorithms. Is it correct?”

From what I am seeing this could be big if true/correct.. I’m not seeing any mention of it here yet..
I assume this is the same “Schnorr” as in “Schnorr signatures”?


Does this mean anything to Bitcoin or other coins that use different algorithms?
A laymen’s explanation could also be very helpful to many here (including me)..
