Can I ask how did you get this result?

Thanks Smiley

My conversion script had an error..   So that is not correct.

Someone posted several sources for the picture earlier.
They are all a bit different apparently:

Corrupt JPEG data: 4 extraneous bytes before marker 0xd9
1403553226437.jpg : negative

Corrupt JPEG data: 18 extraneous bytes before marker 0xc4

Brother, why are you still bothering with stegdetect?

Did you check the image I have posted earlier?
It will return negative, yet it has hidden content.....

I'm just throwing food for thought

What if this:

s7ovY8tcakz3CmiuN2rh51HXUobwcB19cGDrghuh42HDdJdJvrJUEraOP4iDcIxbMy2nLi31nmtHdEh irLbwb5yufe3TCSvjwoAUrk9FzRe7aeJ62YTo6ABDiFt

is a "Stealth address" and the redbits and bluebits are the SCAN_SECRET and SPEND_PUBKEY?

If PB stood for anything, it would probably be Public Broadcast Service.


My guess is the answers are all directly in the image, no second steps, no complicated Cicada style runaround.


Except when she posted on reddit, she called the image a "shared start point". which implies to me, otherwise.

thanks for adding Wink

From what I can tell Alice is telling us is not a URL?

Also, I have not made clear what PB stands for but then again maybe it doesn't matter.



I think some of this is wrong.
0.00100001 should be !, not B. 0.01000010 is B.
Again, I got

Reposting... because I had an error in the last post...


The following addresses have all received coins from 1BoRHtJva2L9YyqB1aS1zqgFUjjftNuZtJ:

Based on the transaction chain I can only feel comfortable with these above addresses being associated with the OP.

This means the following transactions are associated with OP

No I dont escrow anymore.
Been following along but haven't posted.  I think a wiki is a great idea, and we can mark the users that made "breakthrough" discoveries so the eventual winner can donate to the clues that helped them the most (if they choose, I would for sure)

When it comes to these games it's mostly (well to the most part) about bragging Wink

If I should win Id divide pirates style. 2 parts for me, since however gets the loot gets to be captain Wink 2 parts for OP (as the vessel that made this possible) or any other artist that OP seems fit.  1 part each for every crew member. Ppl that helped out here currently 1 that helped out IRL and 1 for a nice dinner for my wife, since we had wedding day yesterday and I was solving riddles.

Agreed, but the prize pool is starting to get up there.

By the time we get to step 5+ it will be much higher Wink
(At least that is what I think).

And yes the prize is good too Wink

Just a thought, the last morse code wordt not(?) part of the phrase were STOP WORDS,
But as I understood the morse (dot)code continued.
morse numbers from this point? binary?

Binary.
Anything more than 6 chars in morse is useless IMO.
