So I guess everyone learned the answer to the question I wrote before,
How many 1BY8GQbnueY starts are there in our 67 bit range? The correct answer is 4. Wink
I disagree with you. Firstly, puzzle #67 has a range width of 66 bits.
The second is that 1BY8GQbnueY has a length of 56 bits and accordingly in the entire range of 66 bits there are approximately 1024 such combinations.

Thank you very much for this information. cctv5go

Thank you for the 1BY8GQbnueY that I want to include in my own system.

lets make me clear, did you mean after your script found prefix 1BY8GQbnueY then automatically jump to the next prefix 1BY8GQbnueY?

A similar example.

1BY8GQbnueY how many do you think are in our 67 bit range?
1BY8GQbnue how many do you think are in our 67 bit range?

I found the answers to these in part.

So I confirmed these with hardware that was not too high, but my range is still far but not as far as space. Smiley

where does 4 come from if there were 2? Grin
it will take another couple of days and it turns out that it is no longer 2 or 4, or even 16, but 21, or maybe more))))

If I were the finder, I would've moved the three UTXOs worth 0.066, 0.594 and 5.94BTC in a private transaction via slipstream.mara.com ..
could someone show how to make a raw transaction for 67? it can be created without privatekey, are there any services for creating raw transactions, or using bitcoincore? to spend all outputs on one address with the required commission. so that I can then sign it and send it via MARA

ps: I haven't found the private key yet, but if I do I'll thank you for this tip))

If you find the private key to 67 and you want to send it through mara I think this is the way.  Someone please correct me if i am wrong.

bitcoin-cli createrawtransaction '[{"txid":"12f34b58b04dfb0233ce889f674781c0e0c7ba95482cca469125af41a78d13b3","vout":2},{"txid":"5d45587cfd1d5b0fb826805541da7d94c61fe432259e68ee26f4a04544384164","vout":15},{"txid":"08389f34c98c606322740c0be6a7125d9860bb8d5cb182c02f98461e5fa6cd15","vout":66}]' '{"bc1q0pju92kh0qyaygvnm074mpdhdg28qa357w7usd":6.69}'

The bitcoin address at the end should be replaced with your address otherwise you will send me 6.69BTC.

The output gives you this.

0200000003b3138da741af259146ca2c4895bac7e0c08147679f88ce3302fb4db0584bf31202000 00000fdffffff6441384445a0f426ee689e2532e41fc6947dda41558026b80f5b1dfd7c58455d0f 00000000fdffffff15cda65f1e46982fc082b15c8dbb60985d12a7e60b0c742263608cc9349f380 84200000000fdffffff014021e027000000001600147865c2aad77809d22193dbfd5d85b76a1470 763400000000

After you get the private key you need to sign it.

bitcoin-cli signrawtransactionwithkey "0200000003b3138da741af259146ca2c4895bac7e0c08147679f88ce3302fb4db0584bf31202000 00000fdffffff6441384445a0f426ee689e2532e41fc6947dda41558026b80f5b1dfd7c58455d0f 00000000fdffffff15cda65f1e46982fc082b15c8dbb60985d12a7e60b0c742263608cc9349f380 84200000000fdffffff014021e027000000001600147865c2aad77809d22193dbfd5d85b76a1470 763400000000" '["PRIVATE KEY WIF"]'

The result is what you put into mara slipstream. 





hello this is the first time for me posting or replying here , supposed some did this methode , from 1% to 100 % what is the propability of succes ??

Hey, new to Bitcoin but I have a question that one of you may be able to help me understand.

Given the unfortunate event of puzzle#66
{
  the real solver likely panic and tried to sweep the WIF using electrum (34 inputs and paying only 5.217/B)

  the sniper within a minute made a clean TX (1 input and paying 406.356/B)
}

If saatoshi_rising used a static padding for low entropy puzzles (like #66)

-> "123456789abcdef123456789abcdef123456789abcdef12" + [2832ed74f2b5e35ee]

Would a sniper still be able to find the private key from the public key being exposed in the mempool within 2 block confirmations?

From my limited understanding this would not be possible because the pubkey would be from a 256-bit key, but maybe I am missing something.

Thanks!

Hey there, how can the "unfortunate event" have place? There's something I'm not getting about it. Could you please explain to me how could the sniper get the private key and snatch all the money on the address?

$$P2P BTC BRUTE.JOIN NOW ! https://uclck.me/SQPJk
If I'm going to give him 1 btc, I also want to. I live in Africa, and the price of bread here is very expensive, 1 btc can help me!

At this ATH moment of bitcoin 1 btc will be enough for a lifetime (With a well management investment and with Moderate product consumption a.k.a not living big and burn money) for anyone.

Also, when the puzzle 66 was solved, didn't somebody (not the solver) grab the money (a bot?) ?

The evidence suggest that it was snatched by someone else. but since the original solver is still unknown then we may only speculate with it.

btc will be 200k USD nex year, btc never grow for less then 100%/year.

Question for everyone.



Its a dog eat dog world full of delusional people.



The guy who solved the puzzle is living in a delusion. He thinks he has the fastest version, but in reality, it's the slowest. Anyone using the slowest version with 100 - 500 GPUs will obviously become fast.

New ideas will be criticized and then admired.

No idea what "desired result" should mean to you, but his code only counts the total iterations, not the number of operations. At each iteration, there is a cycle handling loop and additional code to create new starting points and do additional jumps from base points to the new created points. These are not counted at all in his statistics of his "K" so his SOTA complexity breakthrough is incorrect so basically what I'm saying is that he suffers of so much boredom he can't see his own code bugs, instead he thinks he "invented" some new methods to break ECDLP, who cares that they are actually slower than what we already know?!

Someone who would attack ECDLP in a decent matter would use the correct notation of things, at least.

Now, I never said RetiredCoder is the creator, I just said the keys were probably solved in another way, or were already known to him, or they were solved in a much longer timespan than what he brags about, or with a lot higher costs and resources. Because some things definitely do not add up, logically.


I understand, but the truth is that Kang-1 is complex for me to grasp; I'm not sure how efficient it is. However, it is strange that someone with money would waste time solving the obvious. I say obvious because we all know that with a lot of money, you gain the necessary power to solve it. There’s nothing surprising about that. So if Elon Musk wakes up tomorrow with the whim to solve 135 and 140, he will. The real magic lies in finding a cheap algorithm capable of solving it.

Therefore, I can understand the people who criticize him because he didn’t do anything new. He took it because he could. So far, he has only demonstrated that he has money.

Question for everyone.

If you find a effective method to complete 135 are you going to share your method/code ?
We have known for years that if you have money you have a head start in these puzzles if you bothered to read from page 70 odd if not before that.

No one here is going to hand you that.

snippets yes.

Me personally i wouldn't.
I would tip a few people in this forum for the intel posted if that's what helped me other than that why am i putting others in a million dollar race when i have a head start.Huh

Its a dog eat dog world full of delusional people.


Isn't this a super easy task, to test? Give me the same program, and I will run it with a GPU and then with a CPU, and let's see which solves the key first. Let's make it an 80 bit range. 1 GPU versus a single core, or do you want to use as many cores as the CPU has? Any bets on which one finds the key first?

80bit yes, because you can use low DP. For 120-130 and higher - you have to use high DP and you will get big overhead with JLP. And it's not easy to test 120-130bit range to confirm Smiley

Also, RetiredCoder, make mods to the program, to create less "kangs" when using a GPU, if it's to crazy for you...it's super easy to do. And another question, how does the speed of "kangs", impact the finding of High DP bits. Does a CPU (which the individual kangs are faster) find high DP bits, faster? Or does the GPU's slow, but many, find more, DP bits, faster?
And the last question, which "high puzzles" have you solved and what did you use to solve (CPU, GPU, DP, etc)

Yes I started with JLP code a long time ago, but after some time I got enough experience and I created my own software from scratch - much faster and efficient. So it's not a mod.


Why are your feelings getting hurt? Are you the puzzle solver? Because to me, it sure looks like you’re RetiredCoder. A guy who solves his own mini-puzzle for attention—what more can we expect from him? A guy who supposedly holds a world record but shares code with the public that’s slower than what is already available—what can we expect from him? A millionaire who begs for 100 merit points despite having millions of dollars—what can we expect from him?

If he doesn’t want to share the code, he should just be a man and say, 'I don’t want to share it,' instead of teasing us with 'I’ll share the GPU version in Part 3.' What are we supposed to do with his Part 1, 2, and 3 if he never actually shares his method?

People like JLP have earned respect because they openly shared code that was effective at the time and helped many developers. Meanwhile, RetiredCoder himself said he started with JLP’s code. But where’s the credit to JLP? Instead, we get empty promises and slower code. What can we expect from someone like that?

There’s a 50/50 chance that it could be the creator, but even I can’t confirm this. The reason I say so is because when puzzle #120 was solved, if RetiredCoder was the actual solver, you’d expect the creator to wait for the private keys to be revealed before funding the remaining addresses with 1000 BTC. Instead, without knowing who solved it or how it was solved, the creator immediately increased the prize to 1000 BTC.

Another suspicious point is that puzzles #66 and #130 were both solved in the same month. While this could be a coincidence, it still raises questions. The sad part is that we’ll probably never know the truth since the creator isn’t coming forward to address the criticism or clarify any of these doubts.

When somebody increased the prize to 1000 BTC? What I missed?
Also, when the puzzle 66 was solved, didn't somebody (not the solver) grab the money (a bot?) ?
