There is a mysterious copper sculpture at CIA headquarters with an encoded message. Even after 35 years, the final piece of the message remains unsolved.
We bought the solution from the artist who created it, encrypted it so that even we don’t know the answer, and set up a way to automatically check solutions.
To help hone your skills, we created a new challenge: ten Kryptos-like puzzles of increasing complexity and difficulty. The first person to solve each puzzle will win $1,000, with a $10,000 total prize pot.
Watch the full video, learn about Kryptos and its creator, Jim Sanborn, and try your hand at the puzzles:
