I went through this thread and summarize here:
RSA Factoring Challenge
- next was 10,000$ for 576bit RSA-576 when challenge ended 2007
- only open problem with prize money is RSA-1024, see "1000$+bottle" below
EFF Cooperative Computing Awards
- next 150,000$ for proven 100million decimal digit prime number
(100,000$ was earned back in 2009 for 10million decimal digit proven prime)
"US$1000 and a bottle of champagne" as prize for 20 of the listed 24 problems:

Now I want to add a new prize money challenge (the first challenge I created with prize money).
The first responder with solution will receive 100 USD from me.
Details on the challenge, how created, additional information, where to send result, ... here:

I created the challenge on my Raspberry Pi5 and made sure that neither I nor anybody else can have a clue on the random number generator seed used. challenge.py and challenge.gp are in the repo, challenge,py finally executes challenge.gp with two determined roughly 432 and 434 bit random numbers.
Challenge is to factor a 261 decimal digit semiprime (product of two primes) with given two integers x, y so that n==x^2+y^2. Factoring n without making use of x and y is unlikely to succeed, since biggest factored sofar smaller RSA number RSA-250 took 2700 CPU core years to be factored ...
Below is screen recording of how I created the challenge:
