Hi, WanderingPhilospher or anyone

reference with puzzle thread (update)
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-challenge-transaction-1000-btc-total-bounty-to-solvers-updated-5218972

should be setup in.txt like this right?

Done I do correct?

publickey can be use both compressed and uncompressed right?

Yes, your setup is correct and you can use both compressed and uncompressed public keys.

Hi, i am new

Just try BSGS
https://github.com/JeanLucPons/BSGS

Done Baby Step Giant Step has any version python script work like BSGS?

connecting to tests.
interesting idea
2 prots with 24 cores. see what happens.
how best to run? 48 processes?

Hello! Dextronomous. Thanks for the answer. BSGS has multiple bat files. Run each one sequentially.? Or parallel to the core?

yes identical if you have 4 you can use 3 bat files if you are not on that pc working, or 15 if you have 16cores.

if you think it is in one of the other ranges the bat files wich start with different starting points you want you choose.
good luck

WanderingPhilospher! Please post screenshots of how to use your program. I'm ready to try.

Hi there Elvis13,

you don't need screenshots just download the stuff from github, put it somewhere. after you select the bat files you want to run,
it will run by itself and show you information, let us know.

so new version is nice and not able to choose the pub key i want.

;could that be implemented, in the console asked for pubkey and bits,
something like that,

thanks again for your time,
happy new year 2021

What pubkey and bits (better if exact range) are you looking to search for/

hi wandering,

any would do good, 120th only down to or up to 160 no limits.

If more than 500x Tesla V100 cannot solve 120 bits at the moment, then there is no point in trying to do it on processors.

Well, I mean that is your opinion. However, I do not believe Zielar has been running his machines for #120.

It's all about processing power...regardless of the method. More people have CPUs than GPUs. The more who run the program, the better the odds. Like I stated, BSGS allows us to give different ranges to workers without losing in complexity which is not possible with Kangaroo.

Also, the BSGS is faster in solving these subranges, and it provides 100 percent guarantee that a key doesn't lie in the range, whereas Kangaroo can run forever and still not be 100% sure a key is in a range.

I am also running a Kangaroo program with GPUs for #120. But this program gives another option for people. No one is forcing you PrivatePerson. Either run it or don't. Only guarantee I can give you is that if you don't run it (or another program) you have zero chances of finding #120.

Estimated search time for each range, under 10 seconds, with 1 CPU thread.

How many ranges are there?

A lot...jump in and help with the effort

I updated the programs, now there are 16, and added additional batch files for each program. They are located here:

https://github.com/WanderingPhilosopher/BSGS

Now, each program is designed to check a specific range.

Example, the BSGS1A program will only check ranges in the 1Axxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx range.

I also updated the random range generator so the duplicate ranges checked is small, as it now calls on specific computer functions to set the random generator. This is tested on Windows only, may not work on Linux.

Estimated search time?
Closed-source software?
Only the author of the software can decrypt the result?

Sorry I have difficulties with translation, so I didn't understand everything.

Estimated search time for each range, under 10 seconds, with 1 CPU thread. Search time for entire range, depends on how many people join the effort.

It's just another way to combine efforts to search for the #120 puzzle as mentioned above. I would like to have it hosted on server, with server client connect, like a mining pool, but I do not have that ability...yet.

The software is built off of JLP's BSGS program. The things I tweaked are stated above, the random and input file automation.

hi there wandering,

could we use another pub-key instead of the baked in ones.?

the first public is 0 btc and compressed 0 btc. and the rest of the list of public keys has 0 btc to.
has it got anything to do with the puzzel and how we find the right private key for the wrong pub-key?

thanks a lot great app, getting 5MK/s 1 thread with an i5, very fast all ranges 2^25 2^22 is what i keep seeing,

Hey there. Those pubkeys all tie back to the #120 pubkey. If we find any one of them, we solve the private key for #120.
