Topic: RushWallet 2 Bitcoin Puzzle (Read 32891 times)

Any Luck?

That is not the solution to that address, or any of them.


None of these point to addresses that were used. Why do you believe these are solutions?

It is that not that it needs a password imo!

The thing is that the "wallet" is not connected, as the original RushWallet website is offline. So you can't get access over it from "archive . org" as the access over the private key is unavailable!

---

That apart if RushWallet was using a known protocol as (BIP38)for example so we can reconstruct it/calculate the private key from the wallet ID and the passphrase.

After a short search time I found 3 more wallets, but it requires a password

yes ,there is still a way

And do you have a way to export the private key (if you find the wallet)?? That to be able to spend the bitcoins !

I re-uploaded it here, I'm just sure that some quality has been lost but it was the best I could find.

If someone had the original in the best possible quality, I have another clue about a wallet but in the current quality it is not possible to decrypt it.

You still have the video ??

but the contest page is off !

I'm sure a word appears there very quickly.

lol, damn, I can't believe I didn't think of that!

I JUST remembered the Bitcoin Cash and other forks would have this as well, i went to get it and i was 30 minutes late. woops!!! lol  Oh well i got the "bigger" prize :p

Yeah, and the original value of the #30 was 1 BTC, where it was taken back by the company, however someone sent 0.01 BTC to it. So if that 0.01 BTC is worth it to you go nuts. I do suspect it is VERY difficult if it had a prize 20x larger than the rest.

Or if you like the challenge thats another reason to try. The video is still on YouTube under another user if you do a google search,  that is how i researched for number 1. but it doesn't have the 2nd video they released (the updated version)

The public address of 30 is above there. I tried many things, it is believed to be "hidden in the BTC White paper"

Yeah, knock yourself out trying for #30. It doesn't look like RushWallet is updating the balances on their site anymore to easily check these (they aren't showing transactions anymore and require you to export your private key), so you probably have to plug it in to a different brain wallet website that uses the same method. The following one works, just click on the Brain Wallet tab, and the Passphrase is your guess, then check the public address (not the private key) that it generates on a block explorer: https://www.bitaddress.org/bitaddress.org-v1.7-SHA1-.html

So the contest is still going on even though they mentioned it would be stopped somewhere in 2015? Is the prize for #30 still available?

Yeah, i had a copy of the website on my PC before it was taken down (it went down about 10-15 minutes after i solved #1)

This is the information that i have, since you were collecting:

#30 - 13Q8hJqagtd77ojTJcEZPjTz2sBFSsYxyj - (Unknown , sent back to the source RushWallet funding wallet) * There is 0.01 BTC left here though as some other wallet sent it

A few clues that answers arent there for are:
 - IID that flashed on the screen
 - DID YOU SEE THIS x7
 - Dmitri holding the Whitepaper.

However, aside from 30 they are all claimed anyways. If 0.01 BTC is tempting you could always try and solve it lol. it was 1BTC so probably fairly difficult.


Edit: Also, i see that 1M4An8Ryf7ovsvTLiZKCV3zYt8H9p6F16h (2784623964023 2784623964023) was originally sent 0.25 BTC as you mentioned, so it would make sense it was all a mix up from 0.25 instead of 0.025, and the video having the wrong number in it. Either way it was 3-4 hours where they shuffled the BTC around.

The site updated the total BTC by querying the address to a blockchain website, so if they had been moving stuff but not updating the wallet on the contest page it would explain it not making sense

This puzzle was a nice idea. I hope some others will come out with puzzles like this in the future so I can try them...

Wow, you got it! I was actually looking back at this a few months ago, given that there were still those unclaimed funds, but I couldn't figure it out. In the process, though, I think I discovered what may have happened with that first clue while looking through the Bitcoin address history. It looks like what happened was that they filled the address that corresponded with the first clue, but then moved it back to the source address, and then moved it into #1's address, and the contest page's interface didn't display it right or something. If I'm recalling it correctly, all you need to do is follow the transaction history backwards from the address that you just solved on the block explorer to see what I'm talking about: https://blockchain.info/address/1NKUXbr2URfQyzREPUzoj4MR4ytF5mEm8u

I think the solution was initially supposed to be 2784623964023 2784623964023 (which is what the numbers on the coin edges changed to when the screen sweeped on the original video) but a mistake was made or they just changed their mind to make it harder, and it ended up being moved out of that corresponding brain wallet and into the one that you just solved. It looks like the transaction history on the Rushwallet site is no longer updating, (Speaking of which, Rushwallet is now saying "This site will no longer be available as of APRIL 15 2018"), but it's all on the Bitcoin block explorer if you know the addresses.

Here are my notes on the solutions and the corresponding Bitcoin addresses (I didn't grab all the Bitcoin addresses, but they can be gotten for all the ones we have a solution for):

I just wanted to post to let all you folks who spent alot of hours trying to figure this out, so sorry for the Necro post:


In the end, i figured out the answer to #1 (0.025 BTC). After trying many difficult and overly complicated answers, and based on all of the other answers it seemed like it should be more straight forward, i thought back to the change from 5 to 2 in the 2nd video that was posted on here, so i tried some things, then i noticed 2 things:

5-2 = 3
and 5784623964023, if you think of it of 5 to 2, then its either 578462 or 578462396402.  578462396402 (also, removing the 3) would mean a typo, which have been made clear that a few were made in the Brainwallets. So, in the end, the brain wallet was:

5784623964023 578462396402

I was shocked when i got it!

Who knows what the other unsolved ones are, but that is irrelevant now. I suppose there is 0.01 in #30, which i think most people said is Satoshis white paper, although there is no real clues as to what it might be aside from that.

Also, i noticed the contest website now goes to a 502.

what it is man ?
