I cannot even load the image completely for some some reason, it seems quite interesting what you are up to with this project.

Why would I tell a particular user that they're getting colder?

Well now that you asked it I assumed it was just to tell them they're on the wrong track but now I'm wondering if like temperature is a factor in the solution?!?

perhaps it's not mathematical puzzle, perhaps it's just visual one.. (and all this maths is here to annoy us...)

iQash cryptocurrency 4SP (for smart people)  Cheesy
4SP = 4+19+16 =39
45 +39 =84 = 41 + 43 (two successives prime numbers )  Grin

I think the A2 is a red herring.

And About the breakthrouh, I thought he meant the second breaktrhough. Alphabet to Numbers.

If you take sums of the 1st 3 diagonals (88) and the last 3 (142), the difference is 54, and if the middle diagonal is supposed to add up to that then the missing square would equal 19...?

Hurdles taken:
1. squares to letters (IQ CASH CRYPTO currency)
2. letters to numbers (alphabetical wise --> a=1, b=2)
3. final step ?

Now what are we missing here Huh

There is another big hint here:

Of the last 9 guesses above, there was one of these breakthroughs.

We still have to find which answer was this breakthrough Wink

Agreed, I tried to narrow that down, many of them had to do with primes so I tossed those out so it came down to either a) the sum of the rows and columns being equal and there's something to that or b) My short note about a² being 1 either way and why the need for the square and there's something to that.

So what do we see at flip side of the coin?

IQ logo
Primes from 2 to 101
5 x IQCash Currency instead of 4 x IQCash on the puzzle side
5 x 4 blocks instead of 8 x 4 blocks on the puzzle side

hints:
If it helps, I never said it was the primes that would help confirm the final step, just 'something' on the other side. That may or may not be the primes. Better to solve the puzzle first, then turn it over to check.

160 - 107 = 53 --> That's not the answer, but the answer is just as easy.
There's no reason it must be a prime either.

So I see a couple new hints that have me ask questions but still no answer.

If it's not primes there's not much else to the other side to confirm:

There's 120 letters around the circle or 125 characters if you consider the symbols as well.



If the solution is as easy as cryptoneal's "If I substract 107 (currency) from 160 (IQCASHCRYPTO) it leaves us 53." then I do have to wonder if we should consider the Kappa (k) as 11 for K or 3 for C in the word Crypto...

If it's 3 then we should be looking at 152 as the sum for IQCASHCRYPTO not 160. But why would we break up the words?

Shouldn't it be iQCash (57) and

Cryptocurrency
(204 if we forget about the -2 and use 3 for Kappa)
(202 if we consider the -2 and use 3 for Kappa)
(212 if we forget about the -2 and use 11 for Kappa)
(210 if we consider the -2 and use 11 for Kappa)

That leaves us with possible differences of 147, 145, 155 and 153 -- still nothing that I see helps me by turning over the coin to confirm...

Anyway, that's where I'm at.

is the answer i for imaginary number (the square root of -1)?

New approach.

On the coin next to the text 'IQ Cash cryptocurrency' there is a symbol made from 4 little blocks.
If I use these blocks in the puzzle around the questionmark, I find the numbers: 19 + 23+ 18 + 1. This makes a total of 61.

The answer is 61
When I flip the coin, you can see the number 61 right beneath the four little blocks to confirm the solution.

Nope.

Too bad. Without a proper hint I'm out of ideas Huh

You just missed one.

really?!?!?!?

Is the answer a "Troll face" ?  Grin


Or maybe simple the iQ symbol in the middle
