Topic: == Bitcoin challenge transaction: ~1000 BTC total bounty to solvers! ==UPDATED== - page 46. (Read 56284 times)

very hard to directly brute-forcing

I don't know I calculate wrong or not try check correct

NVIDIA Tesla V100 GPU still very very small a little dot power to search
puzzle #64   
rank = 2^63 - 2^64   
hex 8000000000000000 to ffffffffffffffff    
8000000000000000 = 9223372036854775808
ffffffffffffffff = 18446744073709551615


18446744073709551615-9223372036854775808
=9223372036854775807
9 Quintillion

if use people help to scan Trillion per one person
9223372036854775807/1000000000000
=9223372.0368547756224871

that use people 1 million person to scan it


I think idea POOL scan is very good idea
BUT software pool scan is not  easy to use, that require to install bitcrack
software pool need to new develop to ONE CLICK use

may be need use bitcrack fork do open source pool bitcrack that use only one click
require open code on GitHub for can trusted program is not malwares
and promote to people to join to use
but reward may be change to use method split two between create and user two person  only not share to pool
because bitcoin very small if share with pool may be got a little and that make people not interest

pool create need to have server to record scan
if record all generate key may be use very large storage to record so system will not record and not keep it all every thing
scan use method split to very small slot for each user can scan complete by easy and use time not much and program sent to record already scan
server will work with function distribute scan slot to user  and program for user just one click use only no install

if found key program will be split automatic by generate two bitcoin address and sent transaction to split automatic and save key for user one that is rewards and other one is sent to pool creator may be store on server

have only one person user who get small slot to scan and found it got rewards

other job is need to promotion to people to join
now bitcoin is high price I think is easy to

small slot compare with lotto ticket, may be spilt one slot scan for 1 hour or may be count at 1,000,000 key per slot this is lotto ticket
I think count key is better every one do same use time may be up to CPU or GPU that user use

9223372036854775807/1000000
=9223372036854.7753906250000000

may be call this pool scan is lotto method
Can any one develop solution like this ?

if you can coding and develop one both server duction and program may be help to solve puzzle by easy

but we have 9223372036854 ticket (9 Trillion slot) to have all sold need people to buy all ticket sold out

if can do like this and very easy to use, many people in this work who interest bitcoin price value for now can join by easy
by easy just download software and run it done now just waiting for lucky
may be great if can split 3 for me one give an idea and solution many thinks LOL.

Thank you a lot both explain and image


Personal I think very hard to guess because puzzle read from first post again text description tell something about puzzle, this puzzle not pick address by formula, algorithm  no calculate or any method can repeat for protect some one can think like creator and then can crack it and get all bitcoin by one person who can crack idea it so that mean puzzle pick by random and human pick manual this one make challenge very hard because not a series number. method can search is only brute force all rank puzzle that have only address is very hard more that puzzle have a public key for reference calculate

may be you excel will be correct, everything Nothing wrong Nothing right, everything can possible

If anyone feels they know where the private key is for #64, feeling lucky, or just want to know if your hunch is correct, I can scan the range (limit to 44 bits). If interested, we can work out details.

Produced Keys,
I saw that a machine was produced at a certain interval, by chance.
Like the example Baby Step - Giant Step event, the machine did not generate the same proportional numbers. When you calculated the average of each previous generated numbers as you wanted, I saw that each got different results.
Example: Currently searched HEX range 8000000000000000 - FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Well, the average numbers of the remaining 63 wallets do not match, but they are closely followed.
I give a value of 1 to the first wallet for the average calculation. Because there is no precedent, the beginning.

The picture maybe tells shorter!

Could you give more detail?

I just know all tool create for this puzzle  challenge from BitCrack , Pollard Kangaros and Baby-step giant-step create and develop for solve this thread

This puzzle challenge is challenge to guess bitcoin private key right? but use tools to crack it.

Done anybody expert with python language help to code games

I have some idea thinking
I don't know it works or not (yes, may be not work in first time absolutely)
Can create new tools games predict private key?

program easy
games just show bitcoin address on screen and have fill answer
easy play just guess private key
game is 1 player
games limited time to play or games limited try count (choose one when play)

program work easy
just load file csv database have private key and bitcoin address to games
and then display bitcoin address to player guest
play game select to play with limited time 1 minute or play with hit try 100 time game over

I think games is easy to create. it is simple games

game have 7 mode (idea)
both mode same play
mode practice static (load database priivate key and addres run same and loop)
mode practice random (load database priivate key and addres run random)
mode puzzle (load puzzle challenge list)
mode random (just show bitcoin random)
mode real (load real bitcoin have bitcoin balance inside)
mode bitcoin (show bitcoin address only on environment)
mode pubkey (load and have pubkey show for help predict easy)

and then work for create AI. machine learning to play this games
using reinforcement learning algorithm to solve puzzle (can be NEAT logic or deep learning using tensorflow keras)

may be create complete set to github and give people to play train AI.

how to solve puzzle challenge
Just load bitcoin address abd let AI. play with games

OpenAI Gym have two game predict
https://gym.openai.com/envs/GuessingGame-v0/
https://gym.openai.com/envs/ReversedAddition3-v0/
two game is predict number, may be help to can modify

or may be create new one may be easy thank modify can using PyGames to create games by Easy.

I wish who interesting possible understand what I mean communication upper.thank

Just leave idea for some one interesting help to make it happen.
no big deal work or not
don't interest please ignore this post or think it is never work and waste time please ignore this post san skip comment skip post respond

I just read old thread, Why puzzle high bit over 161 it remove
high bits good for challenge

6 year still struck with 64 bit level
How 256 bits will be long?
256 bits may be this challenge will be history of bitcoin
high price will be attractive people to join challenge


Pool for solve private key #64 still work? why pool very slow.
I am not yet join pool

If this challenge is solved then the Bitcoin price will quickly go to 0 since it will be broken, anyone would be able to take anyone's coins. So whoever is trying to solve this challenge will in both cases get no monetary value at the end: If he does not solve it he will get nothing, and if he solves the challenge he will again get nothing because Bitcoin will be worth nothing. In any case this challenge is fantastic way to prove nobody can solve it because if someone solves it we will know immediately by BTC price going to 0 US$ on that day on the exchanges, no need to announce the solution. OFC, this will never happen.

So this challenge is basically a flex on the security of bitcoin towards everyone? I gotta agree that it is a ballsy kind of flex, letting some bitcoin hang so sharks are baited into thinking that they can solve this challenge which is not really the point of the game, it was all to boast the security of bitcoin. But I think that this challenge is not unsolvable, it only takes one person to have a Eureka moment so they can finally crack the challenge and it might not be now but there will come a time that someone will do the seemingly impossible.

Thank you itod

now I know more about this challenge , I am not join at begin challenge
I read a  little on open post but not to now what happen and overall activity from 6 year ago.

I think normal brute-forcing can not attack bitcoin 256 key success. it is very very hard.

if not have some guide (rank, pubkey) this challenge is not easy to crack and if not use low bits it will be can not solve it

bitcoin very strong on 256bits
now money can not destroy bitcoin price will be move up

have only can destroy bitcoin is algorithm can solve bitcoin but some part not at all.
and technology going fast next it quantum and AI. don't be careless

If you read the opening post you'll find there is no puzzle, this is a "challenge" that creator put to prove it can not be solved. Whoever he is, motivation probably was to make sure everyone's coins are safe since nobody can solve this challenge as the complexity of the private keys increases, and everyone's Bitcoins are safe. This challenge is also a excellent measure of the power of brute-forcing the known public keys, because if the challenge is impossible for these lower range private keys it is certainly impossible for Bitcoins with normal full key range.

Can I ask, Who creator this puzzle? puzzle owner group or who donate bitcoin to use for puzzle

Sorry, I am new, Begin late from first time  puzzle 6 year ago.
just want to know. no big deal.

Done have other puzzle unsolved.

Thank you.
I still learning to use this tools for puzzle other address not have pubkey kangaroo  method

Bitcrack will do it for you; just use --share flag. If you want to break it up into 100 ranges, use --share 1/100; or yes, let python do it for you.

My friend, you aren't even close...the pool that has been running for over a year, with Billions of Keys per second with hundreds of V100s has only searched about 11 percent of the entire range.

17,95%

to go 7567682061411024895

PS. OFC You are not using stride?

What if it was 800000000000000? then now you are only on this site 96FA3142AC800000 is really more like 17%.

Maybe my maths is wrong, I certainly mess things up with the hex-dec conversions... Maybe it's more like 17%?

My BitCrack console window currently says:


So if I am reading this correctly, that's 1.65 x 10^18 keys checked.

And the keyspace is approx 9.22 x 10^18 in size?  I used a hex calculator to subtract the ff[..] from 80[..] and came up with that number in decimal equivalent.  Maybe that's where I went wrong
