Let's think before do something. We need to find puzzle #130 before the rivals.
Suppose they have 512 GPUs like 3090 (what they have 256 is exactly clear) in average they need ~306 days to solve #130.
If we reduce to range 2^119 bit and rent GPU we need 16 GPUs 3090 to solve 119 bit range in 306 day for every public key.
Price for 4x3090 $0.7/h or $67.2/d * 306 = $20563 Someone willing to shell out 20K for the theoretical possibility of winning?
Don`t forget that we should search 1024 public keys. So we need 1024 participants with at least 16 GPUs 3090 cards everyone.
Using tame and wild kangaroos separately is a good idea. Because we only need to generate tame kangaroos once.
Another point is that to launch only wild kangaroos, we needed tame kangaroos in an amount of at least x2-3 from the expected.
And the supply of tame kangaroos must cover the number of wild kangaroos for the worst case.
For 119bit expected op = 2^60.55 with DP size 27(~470Gb) need at least 2^33.55 Tame Dps to run only wild kangaroos.
I'm not criticizing, but just arguing whether it's worth starting at all without having the resources.
In fact, there are not many hunters here, especially those who have several dozen video cards of the RTX 3090 level.
Just reasoning.
I agree. Needs reasoning. Many people say they will do x y and z but then quickly fall off. I may just run tames in the 2^129 and if people want to run wilds, they can, and compare to my tames list. Or chop it down to 124 bit range (since I have many tame DPs already) and then people can run 1-32 pubs and try to find a match.
Or maybe breaking it up into 32, 128, 256, etc ranges would be better?! I’m on the fence.
