Could you please elaborate on the current status of the largest prime number that has been discovered up to this point? I'm particularly interested in knowing the value of this number, the methods used to find it, and any implications it may have in the field of mathematics or cryptography. Furthermore, I'm curious if there are any ongoing efforts to uncover even larger prime numbers and what challenges researchers face in this pursuit.
