Shouldn't there be some kind of consolation prizes? Anyone could simply watch this thread and jump to the answer and get the prize.

That will be very disapointing to those who cracked those 2 virtual coins.
I was right on track with the first clue, but I haddn't found this thread.
With the third one, I went a completely different way, lol. I caught another train from another planet. Wink

The OP probably will give only 1 coin and that will be.

@ndnhc I think 2nd image is releated to the exchanges name which is 5 chars.

So My guess is CATGBEXCB

I've already told "BCTGBEXAC" (whose first and last 2 letters were found by your way).

My observation is that two already known images have given just 2 letters each.
It is more likely that the clue will have around 6 letters. That is the second image will give around 2 letters.

Since all the letters known till now are a. b or c, which could be hexadecimal digits.

I think the second image will reveal 3 characters, and when we convert it to decimal we will get a 9 digit code. all numbers.

Also;
Well actually we got 3 digits also (which could be binary)
000 -> 0 hexal
100 -> 4 hexal
so we got 3x2= 6 hexal parts of password.

Yes, if the next coin has only 2 letters, then this is the answer Cheesy

Good Eye!!! I wonder what the 100 means on the top right corner.

It might be the order of on which the numbers are to be applied.

We have a 000 which comes first and a 100. Next should be?

Or it could be 0 and 4 (in binary) which could be the order or a number of the code or hex.

I have omitted this part since it will be clear only after we get the next image. If it is 200, it will be surely the order in which it should be read. (The site says location 2 not location 3, so I think the clues are given in random order)

If only 0s and 1s are there, then of course, it should be binary.

So we got 'ca cb' till now?
I think the 2nd image will give 3 characters.
I am assuming it is read clockwise of course.

So we will get something like: ca___cb

and using this: http://www.binaryhexconverter.com/hex-to-decimal-converter we will be able to get a 9 digit pass code.

1:

A and C appears pressed in this image.
Clockwise it is CA

3:

C and B appears pressed in the image.

Edit: To see this clearly, Right click and open in new tab both images and simply switch tabs quickly while looking at the coin. You will see the difference.
