As always, extraordinary claim require extraordinary proof.

No need for any extraordinary proof.

Start by factoring the RSA Factoring Challenge.

Obviously there are ways to cheat on this challenge, such a cyber attack on where RSA Inc. stores the results, but it would be a great start.

Pretty directly testable, although I suspect nobody will test.

I agree. At least just publish the solution of RSA260 in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSA_Factoring_Challenge
