The short answer is : If there’s a reward that’s worth it then someone with enough resources can crack it.
Do not create your own algorithm. I repeat do not create your own.
Use an existing library. Many many millions have gone into getting this has difficult to break as possible and unless you have a educational interest in learning how to create them I would strongly urge you to reconsider and use an off the shelf package.
Chances are any algo you come up will be easily broken as crackers have many advanced tools to hand.
I repeat do not create your own.
Please see this question for more info. What techniques do you use when writing your own cryptography methods?
