After months of PRP'ing on the Sierpinski Base 5 project I found a prime! And it's my 1st prime ever! :icon_mrgreen:

Congratulations NeoGen!

You are a Titan.
"A titan, as defined by Samuel Yates, is anyone who has found a titanic prime."

You deserve it.

At ~#280 it will be in the top5000 for a very long time.
Well done.

Not much... I think it's somewhere between 1 and 2 hours for a PRP test on this project...
