Kryptos 2021 Results
One hundred and twenty eight students formed 65 teams representing colleges, universities, and high schools from British Columbia, California, Connecticut, France, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Nebraska, Ontario, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennslyvania, Virginia, Netherlands, and Washington. Our first place finisher solved all three Challenges in just over four and a half hours. Our first place individual finished just after midnight on Friday morning. Thirty teams finished at least one of the Challenges and ten completed all three. The Kryptos CodeMasters appreciate all the hard work teams and individuals put into working on these challenging ciphers.
Those teams which submitted at least one correct solution are recognized below. The order of the listings indicates the chronological order of when the solutions were submitted.
