Is there any python script for BSGS that can search 2^80 as you mentioned?Huh

https://github.com/Telariust/pollard-kangaroo/blob/master/pollard-kangaroo.py   This one is useless, because I tested it by giving it a test public key within range of 2^50, 2^20,, it is not finding it....
I used it by giving it command like this /python kangaroo.py 00008:000ffffff 02049370a4b5f43412ea25f514e8ecdad05266115e4a7ecb1387231808f8b45963

Getting 128GB to work with a desktop PC can be tricky. With modern processors incorporating memory controllers on die, the load from 4 DIMMS is problematic.

If anyone is interested in using 4 DIMMS, make sure to check the memory QVL for the motherboard you have and be prepared to spend some time tweaking the BIOS to make it work. Using memory that is not on the QVL may also work but will most likely need tweaking and loosening of the timings and speed.



I think I was getting about 450/620Pkeys/s on Ryzen 5950X/32GB with k=1440/2048 on #120
Would like to have 128GB on my system but that's impossible due some reasons

I use a mini-itx board so only two dimm slots available. Plus I just want to use b-die sticks which is a total limit. Seems there were G.Skill 2x32GB b-die kits in production but it's almost impossible to find or the price is oof

Impressive.

My 2 core Celeron CPU and 6 GPUs only do 46116860184273879040 keys/s

46.116.860.184.273.879.040 keys/s

But that's only using 8GB of RAM. If I installed more, upwards of 128GB of RAM, the rig would then get 553402322211286548480 keys/s

553.402.322.211.286.548.480 keys/s

BSGS is a really sweet program, but it's almost useless for higher bit ranges. Even if a system with BSGS can scan a 2^80 bit range in 1 minute, the search time for #125 would still be 2^44 minutes; if you found it at the midpoint/half of ranges, it would still be 2^43 minutes.

17.592.186.044.416 minutes.

What's the average time for RTX 4090 to convert 256 millions of numbers into BTC addresses with comparing to one address? I have some kind of formula to predict the next puzzles. But I don't have much knowledge about IT.
less than a second lol. But are you needing to print to file each address?

4090 does 2 billion addresses per second.

No I don't. I just need Integer -> Private -> Public Key -> First Compressed Address & compare result with one address, before this operation also simple math exactly x*Y+n. That's it.

48 billion iterations (only internations no comparing, hashing & I bet random numbers in range will be x100 faster its easy to predict with formula)
    each iteration 256 milion operations x*Y+n = Integer -> Address, Compare

With my formula this is the time to solve #66
Good luck! Hope you get it.

With any 20xx, 30xx, 40xx, you will be able to do 100s of millions of keys per second.

If anyone can help me with coding script for that would be nice. I'll share with reward.

Why you think no one didn't show up for years and now he moved some coins to raise the reward ?
.................
........................
they are sitting there only to control the security level.
He didn't show up to add more funds because there wasn't any serious people involved in the hunt, after asking him for a couple of month to add more funds in order to make it worth while, he nicely did so.

About someone sitting some where to control the security, I can think of 3 possible scenarios,
1- he is trying to show off, and test the skills of community members to see if some one can find a quick way to collect the coins or not, so it is an evaluation test for safety and reassurance for the world.

2- he already knows that there are some shortcuts to find the keys, by doing this he is trying to determine whether other people know about them or not.

3- he enjoys boasting and torturing us. 🤣


If the calculations of WP, are correct then solving 125 will require the same amount of work as solving 66, therefore no one will try addresses with no known public keys, note that solving 130 would require the same amount of work as brute forcing #68 I think?

So yeah.

Ps, I was thinking about 1000BTC in a single exposed public key in a high range, that would be a real safety check.Once again, there are many talented people lurking around these woods which are honest and not thieves, but if there is a very large incentive they could work 24/7 to eventually find a solution, without that large incentive, they won't spend all their time trying to steal coins from other people.

I would love to participate in such a big and difficult challenge personally.😉
2^63.05 ops for #125 using Kangaroo. 2^65.55 ops for #130 using kangaroo. Brute force, if found close to 50 percent of ranges searched: #66 = 2^64 ops, #67 = 2^65 ops, #68 2^66 ops, ect. The other factor is program speed; if you take the same card and setup, normally it has more speed, MKey/s using Kangaroo than using a bruteforce program.

#125 vs #66; #125 = less ops and two times the loot. Which way will people go?  #66 has a pool and I have setup a pool for #125. It'll be a fun race regardless of which pool solves first!

2- he already knows that there are some shortcuts to find the keys, by doing this he is trying to determine whether other people know about them or not.

Exactly. And if the person acts smartly and carefully by not withdrawing the coins, he builds up an enormous advantage over the "makers". Of course, this requires a great deal of self-control and greed for money, power or prestige are out of place. It is great to know that there are people out there on planet earth who can stand up to this and will not pull the coins even if they nowdays already do know the keys to each of these puzzles and could well knowingly become millionaires. Hats off  Cool

You people don't understand one thing. These "puzzles" aren't a funny lottery created to give someone free money.
Asking the creator for money is pointless.

It's a shady thing... Some sort of "fuse" to keep an eye how far we are in the possibility to break keys based on lower bitrange. Someones just keep an eye on bitcoin security cause he/they are surely aware that bitcoin security isn't eternal and it's a matter of time it's current form will be broken.

Why you think no one didn't show up for years and now he moved some coins to raise the reward ?
Someone keeps an eye , keeps all the keys to these addresses and his last goal is to give you free bitcoins - they are sitting there only to control the security level.

So stop talking about asking the creator for clues cause it's clearly pointless.

I belive him only in one thing - there is no pattern here.

Of course everyone can do whatever they want but i think it's a waste of time UNTIL YOU HAVE BIG ADVANTAGE OVER JUST BRUTEFORCING on GPU/CPU - otherwise you are just wasting your hardware and electricity.

I'm new here! I have a question and a suggestion! Question - has anyone tried to contact the Creator?
The suggestion - let's all turn to him together - let's fill him up to ask for a clue to the key - it would somehow increase interest!!!Now -  it's a sad sad bruteforce, on unreal ranges! This is moral masturbation)))



A solution, sort of a hint.
Have any of you studied G point throughly? It has some interesting characteristics, it was generated by someone we don't know anything about, other than that, N also is interesting and you should research both N and G.

One other thing is the concept of adding and multiplying G by k, which obviously is not what I thought, I always assumed that if G is 5, and k is 20, we'd just multiply 5*20=100 =p. Well that was a misconception from my part.

Now instead of wasting your time doing useless stuff, start doing some research and experiment on elliptic curve.

Worth mentioning that almost 99% of you are unaware that bitcoin elliptic curve is a mirror. Now that you know, you should study the mirror verse to see what cool stuff are lurking there. Good luck and happy hunting.


I just wanted to shock Satoshi for a second. Are you shocked? .

hello, which program will we use to solve the puzzle, can you share the link for it to be done with a video card and processor?

You can use the Kangaroo program https://github.com/JeanLucPons/Kangaroo which is actually what is being discussed in the first post of the topic or join the pool of joint search for the key to the 66 puzzle http://f4lc0n.com:8080/  Smiley
