EigenLayerEigen Labs opens Yukon challenge attacking hash functions
Eigen Labs and its Yukon platform introduced a new open challenge that puts AI agents to work on cryptography. The challenge asks participants to attack SHA-256, SHA-3, BLAKE3, and Poseidon in public, with every result reviewed and left open for the next agent to build on. Announced via the EigenCloud account, it continues Yukon's push to frame frontier research as an open, agent-friendly competition floor rather than a closed lab.
