OP, are there any more riddles coming our way?
Also curious about the answer. I had no idea what the video was about 
I was just lucky. The answer is the length of the video, 143sec. The private key is:

Wow, that one was quicker than expected! Congrats to whoever solved the Riddle.. feel free to make a post and let us know how you did it.
I will post the solution to the site and here later- and at some point I will create a new riddle.

Is anyone working on this? I was away the whole weekend and it seems very quiet here... Maybe everyone if looking at the price increase...
I have no idea how to get started with this. Clueless about the clues! Anyone can share their thoughts?
Good news is that we only have 6 variables, 62 ^ 6 = 56,800,235,584 combinations.

Somebody already solved it and withdraw it.The first two riddles was reasonable but this one didn't make any sense to me so i didn't bother too much but i'm still curious about answers.

Riddle #3: The Bitcoin Goblin's Revenge
Wallet on the blockchain: https://blockchain.info/address/1EtXLvmxUH1EYic81EPSqccjJAHwWAiSqF
The riddle:
This time you must watch a video to solve the riddle. Can you work out the private and take the bitcoin before someone else does?
The Riddle #3 video can found on the homepage:
http://CoinRiddles.com
It looks like the Bitcoin goblin is pretty upset that you guys ransacked his goblin maze and stole the bitcoin private in the last riddle. He wants revenge. I hope he doesn't succeed.

The riddle is pretty ambiguous with the clues. It would be way more helpful if we were told the number of characters, and upper/lower case right off the bat.
Yes, this one was actually very difficult. I was going to release clues, but someone solved it. Congreats to them, surprised it was solved with basically 0 clues so quickly. If they are lurking, would love to hear how they did it/roughly how long it took them.
New riddle will be live in about 9 hours and 47 minutes. (9am New York time, August 5th)
My mistake was a wrong guess of Penultimate which reduced my number of tests to ~450 million each time which I performed twice and failed 
I thought the penultimate section was regarding the private key: either the penultimate 3 characters of the penultimate character, repeated 3 times. To expand, I mean either:
a) vJX
b) XXX
to fill in the spaces. Unfortunately, it was something I completely didn't expect. (As for Elliott Gould I originally anticipated age, initials, number of movies, etc.)

Is it OK if I cheat by entering the private key in [u rl=htt p://directory.io]directory.io[/url] and just fill the empty spaces with some guess work to find the exact key in about 30 minutes?
Code:
5JXwVG4cQxyBvArqB3cF4NFyZNzUNmKSV6bEkwBzGg6qQADZUzy
5JXwVG4cQxyBvArqB3cF4NFyZNzUNmKSV6bEkwBzGg6qQD78inJ

I don't know why you keep talking about directory.io but no it won't work. And good luck getting something out of it!
But if you know the first two are "U/u" and "S/s", the penultimates are "y/Y", and the last two are BMW M series "m/M" and "5/6", then the possible combinations will be:
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 62 x 62 = 492,032
If a computer can test private keys at a rate of 1000 (possible?), it will take less than 500s = 8.3 min.
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 62 x 62 = 492,032
If a computer can test private keys at a rate of 1000 (possible?), it will take less than 500s = 8.3 min.
If you know "US" and "m5" (that is m5 by the way if you reverse search the pic) there are still 5 missing characters.
2 (U,u) * 2 (S,s) * 2 (M,m) * (58^5) = 5,250,854,144
58 is 58 characters in a base58 string (aka private key).
My mistake was a wrong guess of Penultimate which reduced my number of tests to ~450 million each time which I performed twice and failed
If you start guessing for all the missing letters in they it will take much much longer than 30 min xD. Try it.

I don't know if it's cheating but none of the 4 keys you posted is the right answer. I think it's not cheating if it's wrong
