# When will the R. Hypothesis be resolved?

### Question

The Riemann hypothesis is a conjecture stating that the nontrivial zeroes of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ all have real part equal to $1/2$.

When will the Riemann Hypothesis be proved or disproved?

This question will resolve as the date when the Clay Mathematics Institute announces that the Hypothesis has been proved or disproved according to rule 5.c of the Millennium Prize Rules, or when it is shown to be independent of the standard ZFC axioms.

In case the Clay Mathematics Institute is discontinued or no longer awards prizes for resolved Millennium Prize Problems, it resolves when admins decide that there is a consensus amongst relevant leading pure mathematicians about the Hypothesis being resolved.

### Prediction

Note: this question resolved before its original close time. All of your predictions came after the resolution, so you did not gain (or lose) any points for it.
