The basilisk collection (also known as the basilisk file or basilisk.txt) is a collection of over 125 million partial hash inversions of the SHA-256 cryptographic hash function. Assuming state-of-the art methods were used to compute the inversions, the entries in the collection collectively represent a proof-of-work far exceeding the computational capacity of the human race.
This is a grand work of fiction.
The author has another fiction on the concept named "Clairvoyant Computing": https://suricrasia.online/unfiction/CSC218-Software-Precognance.pdf
