hello everyone! You can explain what happens when multiplying
Code:
7fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff5d576e7357a4501ddfe92f46681b20a2
by an odd key.


Download and run this java calculator, it's very slow and heavy but it's good for manual calculations which is why you can only do manual calc with it.
https://github.com/MrMaxweII/Secp256k1-Calculator

Select scalar on both sides, and place private keys in hex format, then select * , + , - , ÷ , and see for yourself what would be the result.

What you should consider when dividing an odd key, dividing any odd key by 2 will always give you .5 ( point 5, half ), anything on the left side of the point . Is your actuall result no matter if you are dividing by 2 or any other number, but for example we use 2, and anything on the right side of the point . Is a 2^255 + key, we don't want that, so we subtract that from our result to get the actual answer.

3 divided by 2 = 1.>5 <  this 5 here means half of n, so if we subtract it from 1.5, we will get 1, our actual result.

Now lets make it a bit difficult, let us divide 7 by 3 = 2.33333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333 3333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333 3333333333333333333333333333333333333333333

Now to get the n/33333........... more 333333..... etc, no need to do any complicated calculation, we just divide 7 by 3 mod n to quickly get the result, then we subtract it from the result to get our key.



Never mind all the above, I have something to twist your minds, take the following key and double, divide, do many other things with it to get really confused about how EC works. 😂

Introducing to you 2^256 of secp256k1

Code:
14551231950b75fc4402da1732fc9bebf

Try multiplying it by 2, 3, 4, 5 etc as well as dividing it, this little sucker is hiding it's half under the ground!


Thanks for the info bro. I use this calculator, it works great! And how do we subtract half of n from the point X and Y coordinates?, or do we need to get the coordinates x, y from half of n? (if there is, then what are the coordinates of half of n). Or was the subtraction just an example to show so that I would understand?.

OK, tomorrow I'll try to test this key))

Hi Guys, I'm back, and i found the "p2sh-segwit" of 130 # puzzle address "1Fo65aKq8s8iquMt6weF1rku1moWVEd5Ua"


"p2sh-segwit": "3J9ANKe3NQgDvtS33JX1v4CB1tyDZAYgrS"

maybe there's some clue or something to work with p2sh ?

because i see the pattern of the puzzle, if someone not spend the fund, the P2SH not generated on privatekeys.pw

Alright, after numerous calculations, I've come to the point where I need someone who is interested in puzzle 66 and capable of counting 48 bits within a few minutes. I have a total of 588 ranges for them to work on, with the opportunity to claim the prize of 6.6 BTC. Alternatively, if the author of the puzzle – the one who created this challenge to test the difficulty of increasing bits – has come across my post, I challenge them to assist me in improving my counting speed. I am confident in my ability to crack puzzle 66 in a matter of days.

what would the scanner get for wasting time and resources if the keys needed don't fall within these ranges?

I hope you know that addresses don't reflect on other addresses, they have no business whatsoever... if we are talking about pubkeys then It is pretty understandable, and I suggest you have the public key for number 66 to be able to have such confidence about the range to be scanned and if I were you and I had the pubkey then I wouldn't hesitate using kangaroo or keyhunt bsgs where it wont take up to 10 minutes to get your key

im ready to work with you

As previously mentioned, I have a total of 588 ranges, where is a private key of puzzle 66. Each range requires a 48-bit computation (I am referring to GPU computation). and I am seeking an individual who is capable of performing these computations within few minutes or at least an hour.

As for our collaboration approach, I am currently developing a script to scan all 588 ranges. Once the private key is obtained, the script will automatically perform the following actions: 2% of the amount will be deducted as fees, 59% will be sent to the individual performing the computations, and 39% will be sent to me. my bitcoin address and the computation performer's bitcoin address will be pre-entered into the script. The reason for allocating 59% to the computation performer is due to their resource usage, whether through GPU rental or electricity consumption. I intend to share the entire script with the individual to ensure transparency, while keeping the ranges known only to me. Once the script initiates, neither of us will have any access to it. But when scanning of one range completed, it will be saved along with the proof of work. Certainly, it will take me some time to perform all these processes.

So why not continue searching for that person in the meantime?

(This range is an example of 588 ranges: 3b07a000000000000:3b07affffffffffff, and this address is for proof of work: 1GYpdGZBaqRDKkpFWbaRezrVeGy6g6UNfE, 1Ngdkik5LLGzmzYUWKiPYDQ6CRRGWCPo5L, 19XbiMqyqeaJLDSvHLzhJkxngDYsBPXTQo, 13zb1hQbWVsc2S7ZTZnP2G4undNNpdh5so)

The person who will perform the counting of this range needs to be scanned and to post here with proof of work, or they can personally DM me as well.  In this interaction, I will assess their operational speed in completing this 48-bit range. For scanning, they can use any software, but my suggestion is to use 'VanBitCrackenS v1.0' because here they can take advantage of multi-GPU. If the puzzle address falls within this range, then it will be yours. 👍

what would the scanner get for wasting time and resources if the keys needed don't fall within these ranges?

5- another form of successive subtraction

Code:
import secp256k1 as ice


target_public_key = "023d62d9d64a7164a2ae6f0561f7e8317e69b4a1ee61048fe768a1316b39b1d3a7"
target = ice.pub2upub(target_public_key)
num = 10 # number of times.
sustract= 1000 #amount to subtract each time.
sustract_pub= ice.scalar_multiplication(sustract)
res= ice.point_loop_subtraction(num, target, sustract_pub).hex()
print(res)


Tell me how to make each pub write from a new line, and not all in one line?

Hey guys, instead of wasting your eye sight on long and useless base58 WIFs which literally represent 0s in hexadecimal, let me share a little secret regarding public keys.

Here is how you can find half of your public key, it's not straight forward method but I bet many of you didn't know about it.

First we need to extract 1 and half of our public key then we can subtract our p which is 1 from it's 1.5 to get it's 0.5 half. Though we could just divide it by 2 without all this trouble, this is a hint to make you dive deeper in to this vast ocean of numbers and equations.

Target  pub:
Code:
03219b4f9cef6c60007659c79c45b0533b3cc9d916ce29dbff133b40caa2e96db8

Target priv:
Code:
0x800000000000

Our multiplier inverse or not doesn't matter, +n will give you +n result and vice versa.

Scalar : aka n/2+1 half n +1 or 1 and half of n.
Code:
7fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff5d576e7357a4501ddfe92f46681b20a2

If you multiply our target pub with scalar above, you will get this :
Pub2 :
Code:
02161c6cbee1483deaf6f9b395c817eb019228cda5afac5857295ba10959dffc96

Priv :
Code:
0xc00000000000

Now if we subtract target from pub2, we will get :

Pub3, half of target :
Code:
0313d1ffc481509beee68f17d8ff41c2590f4c85f15268605087eda8bab4e218da

Priv :
Code:
0x400000000000

We didn't even use division, *chop chop and good luck diving.😅


* = hurry! Get to work.

I edited my previous post with the results, you could do that for any other number, but you need to know the last digit of the target, otherwise you'd be doing subtraction of 1 to f divided by 10 with your first result.

Ps, I will not study to figure out how to divide by 10m and still have a correct result, if I do, I will not share it, that'd be ECC bent and broken totally.

i am also still trying to use Bit because I see that's the most highest probability of eliminating less likely keys and ranges. I have integrate and complete a whole Python code which I can predetermine the permutations of first 4 digits, skip keys that have a maximum consecutive "0" and "1", setting the weight on "0" and "1". This has eliminated a lot of keys but still, it needs a lot of computation power. I can easily find 30 up to 40 puzzle easily, but when it comes to 66 then headache already. I possibly know how you come out with the 48 bits ranges. Most likely you are trying to run a lower bits of predetermine weight 0 and 1 permutation to get the most likely range, am I correct?

you would have to give more information, otherwise nothing can be imagined. Do you need computing power? Does your "partner" have to search a single 48bit range that you provide to him, how do you imagine the billing in case of finding the correct privkey, etc... everything else is just speculation and leaves room for wrong assumptions.
