TON Kernel Contest Results at CodeForces

As a reminder, TON is a sponsor of CodeForces.com - world's sports programming platform.

Recently, a contest with $51,000 prize fund was held to find the most efficient block compression algorithm that can be used to reduce traffic between TON blockchain nodes.

783 programmers took part in the contest, the winners showed compression more than doubled (47% of the original size). We are exploring approaches that can be applied to the TON main network.

Note that the tasks were prepared by kernel developer SpyCheese - legendary GM on CodeForces!

Congratulations to the winners!

We remind you that winning such contests is the best opportunity to join the TON Core team.
