I've been trying to solve puzzle 130 for two years now. 6 GPUs. The puzzle creator is kidding with us. Yes, we are all donkeys. Cry

Oh man that sucks big time! Sorry. I have similar situation... Not two years tho..

You remind me of a fork of Digaran, with his endless attempts at pseudo-mathematical attacks on Elliptic Curve. You all just need to focus on your families instead of wasting your lives on nonsense.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I understand that you have a different perspective, and I respect that. However, I have my own view on this, and it's based on certain facts and research that I believe are valid. I'm happy to have a conversation where we can both share our ideas, but it's important for both of us to stay open-minded and respectful.

Grin

[Edit]

pseudo-mathematical attacks on elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) can occur, but they typically refer to attempts to undermine the security of elliptic curves using flawed, incomplete, or incorrect mathematical reasoning. These attacks are not based on sound cryptographic research but rather on misinterpretations or speculative ideas without sufficient mathematical backing.

If someone claims that "pseudo-mathematical attacks on ECC" are nonsense but simultaneously relies on brute force or waits for some miraculous mathematical breakthrough that has no solid proof yet, they might just be stuck in a charming little daydream of wishful thinking. Tongue

After all, nothing says "I understand cryptography" quite like banking on an imaginary genius to solve a problem that stumps the world's best mathematicians any day now, right? Huh

closed for debate, thanks. Cheesy

lol that's just the beginning not the end

Beginning of what ?

Look all the posts months back ... all the python/c++/rust scripts and all the discussions and theories here - it was all pointless cause nobody here has enough computational power which this "puzzle" is all about.

It shouldn't be called puzzle at all. It is a brute force measuring tool plus there are suspicious activities here that may point the creator of this thing is not playing fair.

Where is the evidence to back all this fud about the creator of this challenge?

There is no evidence, but there is also no proof that anyone has solved Puzzle 130 using Kangaroo and a massive number of GPUs. I can’t believe anyone would be so crazy as to invest that much hardware in this. It would be more profitable to mine BTC for the same amount of time.

The Creator just wants to turn everyone into a human centipede in the search for the 67th and 68th bits. As he himself stated, there is no connection between all the keys, they were random, so this isn't a puzzle—it's just a GPU strength test, pure brute force. Kangaroo was an outstanding tool for its time and purpose, searching by public key, but there’s nothing heroic or scientific about brute-forcing the lower bits, because there’s no public key there. The experiment on studying Bitcoin's encryption strength is over! Thank you all, you’re free to go!

nah, i dont aggree with this, imo bitcoin is work with computational power, but else of formula is make from human things.
still can be breach out with math, look out theres other challenge to unlock bitcoin with math.

I think rather than brute forcing I like playing vanity game, it is more exciting..

^{import sqlite3
import random
from bit import Key
import bitcoin

# Connect to vanity_addresses.db for storing found vanity addresses
vanity_conn = sqlite3.connect('vanity_addresses.db')
vanity_cursor = vanity_conn.cursor()

# Create a table in vanity_addresses.db to store vanity addresses and private keys
vanity_cursor.execute('''
   CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS vanity_addresses (
   address TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
   private_key TEXT
   )
''')
vanity_conn.commit()

def generate_vanity_address(prefix):
   while True:
   private_key = random.randint(2**66, 2**67)

   key = Key.from_int(private_key)
   addr = key.address
   addr_uncompressed = bitcoin. privkey_to_address(private_key)

   if addr.startswith(prefix):
   # Insert found vanity addresses into the vanity_addresses.db database
   vanity_cursor.execute(
   'INSERT INTO vanity_addresses (address, private_key) VALUES (?, ?)', (addr, str(private_key)))
   vanity_conn.commit()

   if addr_uncompressed.startswith(prefix):
   # Insert found vanity addresses into the vanity_addresses.db database
   vanity_cursor.execute(
   'INSERT INTO vanity_addresses (address, private_key) VALUES (?, ?)', (addr_uncompressed, str(private_key)))
   vanity_conn.commit()

prefix = '1BY8G'

generate_vanity_address(prefix)}

lol are you guys gonna try vanity 1Prestige1zSYorBdz94KA2UbJW3hYLTn4 instead of search 67?

possibility of finding 67 via vanity > possibility to find 1Prestige between 0 and 2^256 Grin

It will not be the creator, the more people search for puzzle addresses, the greater the chance of solving them
To give an example, if 1,000,000 computers start solving puzzle 67, there is a good chance you will solve it in one day

Wrong example. I think you meant 1 billion computers running at 100% usage for 24 hours.

someone just took out the 130 bit.
dang, it's creator or someone else did samething with 66 bit ?

  "outputs": [
   {
   "address": "1Prestige1zSYorBdz94KA2UbJW3hYLTn4",

   "value": 1299999680,
   "spent": false,
   "spender": null
   }

ngl, the way you can break the puzzle is from recent history of priv key has been found, if someone found it, and not tell the key, the puzzle is broken, you just need to think this is PUZZLE, and every piece is work together to assemble the next lossless piece.
