Determined by computers many years ago, the 3x3 can always be solved with 20 moves or less. While many of us will never achieve this it's still amazing to think about. Chances are that the FMC World Record of I think 16 moves (don't quote me on that) may not have been the most efficient solve of that puzzle. Incredibly impressive, but who knows maybe our computers just aren't quite smart enough yet to beat him. 43 quintillion is a lot after all lol.

considering that the 3x3 can be solve with 20 moves or less, if 1 person we're to learn all 43 QUINTILLION algs to solve the cube (probably impossible) then it would be very fast solves

learning 3x3 is easy, it's just 9

and 3x3x3 is 27

Siamese cubes and Rainbow Cube both used to be events in the WCA, but they were removed very quickly and the WCA removed the results.
Note: I saw this in a YouTube video, so take this with a grain of salt.

I saw that video too, apparently 3x3 no inspection also was an event

send your random facts/information about cubing,

once a single edge or a corner is twisted, the cube becomes impossible to solve.

I know for a fact that the Rainbow Cube used to be a thing, but I had no idea about the Siamese cubes. Interesting.

For a megamimx to be considered solved, it isn't like 3x3 where if it's just under 45° then its okay, but instead it's at most 36°.

Similarly for skewb and pyra its a bigger allowed area, being at most 60°.

A cube has less sides than a dodecahedron

AINT NO WAY
AMAZING
