The prime-index irreducibility conjecture for Stern polynomials

About 15 years old · traced to

Let Bp(t)B_p(t) be the Stern polynomial indexed by a prime number pp. The prime-index irreducibility conjecture. For every prime number pp, the polynomial Bp(t)B_p(t) is irreducible.

The conjecture was checked computationally for the first million primes, but the supplied text gives no general proof or resolution.
