The creator intentionally left 10% of the BTC from puzzle 66 behind so that some fool would actually go to Binance and withdraw it, placing all the blame on the poor person who had no intention of stealing.

It is simply a crude measuring instrument, of the cracking strength of the community.

Finally, I wish to express appreciation of the efforts of all developers of new cracking tools and technology.  The "large bitcoin collider" is especially innovative and interesting!

Actions the creator should take if he really wants to test the strength of Bitcoin:

Reveal the puzzles already claimed.

This would reduce uncertainty and speculation.

Reveal the public keys (pubkeys) from 110 to 160.

This way, we will know how far he has advanced in the cracking methods. As far as we know, puzzles 130 and 125
could have been just a matter of luck. If he reveals these keys, when the others start to be found, we will know
precisely the progress, and it will also encourage research.

Encourage developers with donations.

He can make sporadic donations to active developers with the best tools. This way, new ideas will be revealed.
Currently, very few want to share their best ideas for fear that a big miner will take them without even thanking them.

Otherwise, this topic will die over time, and the desire to innovate will too.

I reached out to the creator personally over PM on September 16, initially to defend him from some unfair criticism. I asked questions and made suggestions about the project, such as revealing more information to reduce speculation and encouraging developers. Unfortunately, I didn’t receive a direct response from him.

However, after that, there was an interesting development involving puzzles 66 and 130.

90% of this topic became a BS non-sense stuck in an infinite loop of same stupidities that repeat over and over again

Only an idiot can ever think AI, random search, brute-force, neural network models, etc. can ever break elliptic curve cryptography, or reducing its complexity.

Only someone with a single digit IQ can then agree with all the trolls that post non-sense ideas, and code snippets that look as if it was written by a 3-year old toddler, like COBRAS and a few others.

Meanwhile, others either observe and actually solve stuff, or stay quiet and steal ideas.

I am done with this from an active sharing standpoint, since it's clear we're heading nowhere and lots of fake information is continually reinforced here, with no basis in reality.

IMHO it doesn't even take a puzzle and attention to know already if it can be broken or not. There doesn't exist any key that cannot be broken. Pure and simple. Sure, if it's a 256 bit key than you might need to wait for another big bang to get the additional energy required to break it. But I'm pretty sure a 160-bit key is a 24 hours problem if NSA really wants it worked out. Nowhere close to needing all the Earth's resources and so on.

In the end, it’s about power and trust. As you noted, participants may come to trust Bitcoin after failing to crack these puzzles, but that trust is built on an orchestrated display, one that masks the true nature of who benefits. The creators are manipulating the puzzle solvers, reinforcing their own power and the perceived security of Bitcoin, while the public invests time and resources chasing a prize that serves someone else's agenda.

The only logical next step after discovering the world’s most elaborate cryptographic conspiracy is, obviously, to write a book about it. I mean, forget the fact that you’ve unraveled the entire power dynamic of global intelligence agencies using Bitcoin as their own private fortress of control, what better way to fight back than publishing a bestseller? Who knows, maybe you’ll even get a movie deal out of it.  Smiley

I am looking for a security method when finding a puzzle for a transfer to another Bitcoin wallet!

How to Claim your BTC Reward?

1. Which Electrum version should you use?
1.1 With RBF Off, should it be safe right?

2. Should you sign the transaction?
2.1 How high should you set the salt for the transfer?

3. How can you bypass Mempool the transfer there not appear that the bots do not crack the public key and use a big salt?

Thank you
I look forward to further suggestions!

1. Any wallet is OK to create the Transaction, BUT NOT Broadcast it.
1.1 NO, Even with RBF Off the TX is still replaceable (This depend of miners and their core configurations to accept or not Full RBF)

2. Yes I  said en point 1 Any wallet that allow you see the TX without Broadcast it, this mean that the TX must be signed.
2.1 Salt? What are you talking about?

3. Mining a block by your self or asking to a miner to include the TX in a block BUT WITHOUT BROADCAST it. The available commercial option to do this is Marathon slipstream Service. (But it wasn't tested for this yet for widely known weak addresses.)

I agree with Akito that the creator of this puzzle moved out puzzles 120, 125, and 130. I have been researching this topic for a long time, and based on my analysis, just after puzzle 120 was solved on 2023-02-27, the creator increased the prize money to a total of 1000 BTC on 2023-04-16. This seemed to be a public stunt by the creator to draw more attention to the puzzle. Then, on 2023-07-09, puzzle 125 was removed again, likely as another public stunt to generate further discussion and speculation that someone had gained the knowledge to crack ECDSA within a 3-4 month period. After that, when puzzle 66 was solved and subsequently stolen by another pseudo person (I’m unsure if this was also a public stunt), the creator quickly moved btc of puzzle 130, likely to attract even more attention.

I don’t mean to offend anyone—this is just my analysis. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and this is simply mine. I have no intention of offending anyone.


This could be true but from the other hand why he would do that ?  You said his goal is to draw more attention. I don't think so. This whole puzzle thing is very niche topic, normal people don't care whatever he will do here... and moving puzzles like 120 125 130 and 66 makes the whole thing even more unaccessible to average person due to obvious hardware limitations.

He stated clearly what this "puzzle" really is:  it's meant to measure what can be cracked at current time, He doesn't care who takes the bitcoins or how it was done or if someone stole the transaction. All he cares about is current cracking capabilities.  As if someone is monitoring if increasing bitcoin security is necessary.

I think the "creator" is not a random private person. It represents someone who have important goal in knowledge how safe bitcoin is currently.  This is someone who created BTC, big exchange or something like this.

How many people you know that instead of cashing it all or at least holding would make a puzzle and play such game ?  And if someone has thousands of bitcoins and this is just a part of them  why would he even bother to make such puzzle ?   I tell you it's not a single private person and he is not moving the puzzles himself.

Yes, I too believe that the creators of this puzzle is someone who created BTC, big exchange or something like this and this is a marketing strategy to promote Bitcoin. Have you noticed that after the prize was increased to 1000 BTC, the number of newcomers on Bitcoin Talk also increased? Yes, this puzzle is meant to measure what can be cracked at the current time and is also a marketing or advertisement strategy. The creators /developers likely knew that after a certain breakpoint or threshold, such as puzzle 66 or puzzle 130, most participants—those without knowledge of ECDSA or secp256k1—who are trying to solve the puzzles using random numbers or common libraries like ECDSA, would eventually fail after spending thousands of hours.

As a result, they would come to trust the security of Bitcoin. After gaining that trust, they might start investing in Bitcoin, which would increase the supply chain and the price of Bitcoin. Now, this puzzle is no longer for common participants; it’s for people who have access to thousands of GPUs and can invest the time, money, and energy required to solve it. In the end, it's the creators/developers who are profiting, while we are merely puppets wasting our time and resources. Yes, the truth is hard to hear because it’s bitter: despite the effort and money spent by solvers, the real beneficiaries are those behind the puzzle.

Humor me a moment, and fathom, what a being with 130 IQ or higher, insomnia and an unquenchable thirst of knowledge could accomplish?

With an IQ of 130, insomnia, and an endless thirst for knowledge, you’re basically a mad scientist in the making! Picture this: you're up at 3 a.m., powered by coffee and sheer willpower, outsmarting billion-dollar corporations from your living room. Your homemade AI is so advanced, even your smart fridge asks you for advice on keeping veggies fresh. Sure, you can’t write code from scratch, but who needs original code when you can duct-tape snippets together into a Frankenstein monster of pure genius? While others are dreaming, you’re out here reinventing the wheel with lasers and quantum-calculated pizza delivery algorithms. In short, you're this close to taking over the world—just as soon as you fix that one pesky bug.

Digaran, stop your consecutive posts and don't be a fool.

Digaran - "दीगराँ लोग" (Hindi) or "دِیگَراں لوگ" (Urdu) would mean "other people." In short, Digaran are the mysterious, probably superhuman 'others' who make the rest of us look like we’re running on Windows 95. Grin

citb0in highly likely refers to the infamous user digaran whose post content mostly equals single-digit IQ or other BS not worth digesting. This guy quickly earned a spot on my ignore list, same as COBRAS.

It seems that since puzzle #66 and #130 have been solved, the noise in this and the other puzzle related thread has gone up to an alarming level. That's sad and makes following this Bitcoin challenge a bit of a pain. Can't help but I'll probably have to considerably update my ignore list to cope with all the loudmouths that have nothing serious to contribute here than conspiracy against the puzzle's funder and other nonsense.

Why do I rant? Well, I'm a curious bystander, not a coder, mostly interested in what's possible and how to break Bitcoin's security when weak private keys are involved. If all you have to contribute is just some noise that doesn't optimize or bring this quest forward, consider to move on and better be silent, don't embarrass yourself.

Rant over... go away now! (To borrow the ending words of the Youtube channel "The Critical Drinker")

Past some members post they found #66 and asking all way to transfer safely, all silent, no questions answers from them, any comments from their side ?
