Just hope that the winners of puzzles #125 and #130 are willing to provide information,
at least the first 2 characters (Pkey) of each puzzle.
some of us (especially me) need confirmation that what we are doing is in the right direction.
I don't have such massive equipment, so I can only rely on math and logic  Grin

Keys are random. You waste your time, but of course, you won't believe it.


I am not one of those who believe in "there is a pattern", but I am working on reducing the range, from 32 ranges, just curious, in which range the puzzle is located

The 120, 125 and 130 was the same person. However, there must be a reason why the 67 does not have PubK and the 125 and 130 do not have PrivK. Your discoveries would be almost instantaneous if this information existed. Does anyone believe that 67 is available to anyone? more than 500 thousand dollars? just with the address we drop to 50mk/s which will take years to get there and with bsgs it was minutes  then we don't have PubKey and the available range is huge already for no one to get there
But these puzzles to capture something are still interesting...that's a truth told by Alberto. But don't dream my friends... don't dream (the 67 has the privKey between 17 and 18 characters) do you have fast machines to get it quickly in Address Mode? Huh I don't have 50mk/s
But whoever is lucky enough to meet you, don't be afraid of robots, but also don't have the ambition to win everything and be prepared to lose almost everything. If possible, pay network commissions of up to 5 BTC and only earn 1. This is if the network allows such commission values, but always start very HIGH on the commission. You managed to find the key and if it's not for you, it won't be for the robots. Is anyone going to lose 5 BTC, either you or the "robots" with RBF  Greetings to everyone and open your eyes

If anything its opened up more insight into kangaroo and more conversation about it which personally i like.

Agree it is better more technical talk than side chitchat. In any case I would recommend to @RetiredCoder just to do a double-check of what information there is out there about himself.


I don't understand why there was so much disbelief that retired coder didn't solve 120 etc etc
Show me prior to the 120 mini puzzle where the key was published.
120 125 130 all went to the same address no ?

@sneeky777 Also just to said that him posted the valid signature for 125 and 130 that must clear any doubt...

Looking at the ROI...I think the puzzle creator is competing with himself.  Embarrassed

What do you mean with this?

Also leaving 4-500$ or so in puzzle 120 alt showed to me he was the real deal.
A second solver is not gonna come along solve it then be pissed they missed out on the original btc then drop 4-500$ in alt coins to play a mini game.
In my eyes its pocket change to him.

If someone really has 2.3 mil in Bitcoin, why would they spend so much time bragging about it on a forum?
I would never sign up here again. I would NOT be online anymore. Publicly announcing large sums could attract unwanted attention, including scammers or hackers. Or something much worse than that.

Well I complety aggre with this, You're absolutely right.
RetiredCoder need to have some good OPSEC (operational security) is essential, especially when dealing with large amounts of money, like 2.3 million in Bitcoin.

The more you broadcast your holdings, the more you expose yourself to potential risks whether it’s phishing attacks, hackers, or even physical threats. Staying anonymous, using strong encryption, and keeping a low profile online are all key strategies to protect your assets. Being discreet with any financial information and avoiding flashy bragging can go a long way in ensuring personal security. People often underestimate the dangers of online visibility until it’s too late. (I talk by my own experience, some users here may remember my dispute with some other user in this forum). Lesson learned in a complicated way.

If a guy/women can solve the puzzle that RetiredCoder did then no way in hell is this guy/gal getting phised by some lame ass scripts nor dumb enough to get infected.
I just don't believe that for a second.

Also at no point have i seen RetiredCoder "brag" about it. A simple mini puzzle followed by more disbelievers and haters.

Pure math and skills, you should understand that.

when u solved 120, the reward was 1.2 btc (sth like 23k $ by that time), but now u have sth like 2.3 mil  $.   how u feelin about that?

You're right, mathematics provides the answers. I don't have extensive programming knowledge, but I have an idea of probability. (I use those programs that are written and publicly available. special thanks
to albert0bsd). I wish you good luck with the "135" puzzle, but...I'm going to compete with you anyway!

I bet you are wrong. Just check everything carefully and you will find a bug  Wink

I wouldn't believe it either, so that's fine. Everything is already checked, counted, and verified to be correct.

I verified it also for higher bit ranges, that jump on GPU.

Those figures are the total op count including DP overhead (complexity excludes DP overhead).

And I'm using more than 3 kangaroos. Pure math and skills, you should understand that.

But don't worry, I don't care anymore about this problem, so have fun with your experiment. I inserted a SHA hash in my older conjecture that this can be solved in ~1.0 sqrt, one day I might reveal what it contained.

I hope no one actually believes they can compete with RetiredCoder aka 3Emi. It looks like a billionaire's hobby, not a contest. It costs at least 500K to break 135, but he doesn't do it for the money, and I won't be a sheep.

Looking at the ROI...I think the puzzle creator is competing with himself.  Embarrassed

I found the "bug" of my previous attempts to increase DP without increasing runtime cofactor.
39 bits, DP 8
Code:
[20] Ops: avg 698950 = 0.942 * sqrt(b) min 219204 max 1848433 dp_ovh: 384.0 mul: 9.35
Stored footprints: avg    6410 min 1987 max 16978
No cycles. No "hey, let's create kangaroos and pretend they don't count as a group operation".
This only works for secp256k1. It is basically 100% faster than the usual approach.

So basically you are saying that you have invented a new method with K<1.0 at DP>6? Without cycles? Are you sure? Cheesy


Yes. But it's more likely it's exactly 1.0.

Totally true, that is a millionaire hobby and he broke the guiness record solving those puzzles but if we create a pool to contribute the search for 135, it can be the first puzzle in some time that has quite a good prize and can be shared between all the contributors. This way we can solve it in less that a year.

Any thoughts?
