Shocked I wonder noone has every solved it, Is it really that hard to solve Huh

No one want to waste a time on this perhaps Smiley


I'd waste my time on this for BTC0.001

0.001 BTC is not a lot Smiley But I would say I undertand that it might be worth some time - but is less than a dollar Smiley how much time is worth? Smiley

Anyway did you solve it right already?

Regards and good luck
0.001 BTC is not a lot Smiley
Not in 2009, not in 2014.
But what about 2020? Wink

Congrats to whoever decoded this. It was fun to try, I'd like to see more of this Cheesy

indeed I would like to see more too Smiley
0.001BTC is not even 1 cheap beer in my situation but quizzes like that are more interesting than 0.001BTC

If I've got the pattern right:

  • In most cases a W represents 2 black pixels arranged vertically.
  • In most cases a ; represents 2 pixels arranged vertically where the top is white and bottom is black.
  • In most cases a ` represents 2 pixels arranged vertically where the top is black and bottom is white.
  • In most cases a blank space represents w white pixels arranged vertically.

Following those rules, I get what looks like a QR Code.  The positioning, alignment, and timing information is all properly represented. Additionally:

  • It appears to be a Version 3 (29x29) QR Code.
  • It seems to be using Level L (Low) error correction.
  • It appears to be using the (col%3=0) mask pattern.

I have not yet figured out what the bold R is meant to indicate.

As such, the resulting QR Code doesn't scan.

What I have so far looks like this:

This is a bit too challenging for me, but it should not be too difficult for those who can program
