if those creators decided to put that rabbit head in that direction for no reason, then they are the most stupid motherfuckers on this planet.

Sure, it's a possibility. (For example the leaves point to the flames, blobs, and parts of the board) You'd have to play around with it and see though. Right now I am experimenting with compneuro's idea.



Congratulations.., You are now looking at the start of alphabetcanary's pattern. 

I think you are mistaken here. The 1follow and W@@@lk were part of the very beginning of this puzzle. It was part of that initial comment in Bitcoin Magazine of somebody identifing himself as WR. The comment was posted after the article discussing the previous CoinArtist puzzle (the one with Dark Wallet Creators). It was the first public occurrence of the second puzzle.

Here, have a look yourself:

 

Okay..

LOL   the Godfather when he posts a clue the funny way  
Now i am thinking that i missed your address in the first post as it may holds a clue! as i don't think you need money, you can easily steal the 5 BTC prize    

i think you mean by the left hand that white tile in the upper left corner, if thats the case then i guess that the right hand is the next white tile that appears like rabbit mouth.

those creators embedded everything in a super crazy way that it's impossible to discover!
and BTW you posted the rabbit with long ear and no hand raised up, you remember?

seems to me that everything in the image carries information (letters, characters, symbols) but the problem is that they are very subjective ( for example i can see something but another member disagree with me or can't see what i see) and they are scattered in a different directions that it would be impossible to arrange and read them the right way.

for the dove and phoenix i see the word (Fold) which maybe refers to that fold with blue and white tiles.
there is also a blue bold line with black bold symbol > above it, but i can't read it.
the dove's head could be O or zero and the Nose, Eyes could be Y or 010...etc

and i don't think that those big black symbols hidden under the flames are coincidence by strokes.
of course they represent something that i can't read.

you remember this? it could be the same!

and that pdf file i am still thinking about it but it seems like we may need it later not now
even the flames i don't think that they hold the key as it seems very stupid for the creators to hide the key in those flames because they know that the first thing for solvers is to check them.
and thats exactly what solvers are doing, 3 years and still checking those fucking flames.
for me the flames is the rabbit hole and they don't hold the key, or at least they are not the first step.

for the leaves i think that this image that you posted before could help us to group those leaves.

in any case i still believe that no one can solve this puzzle alone without your help and clues or your guide.

How about we invert the image like this:

On the key the ribbons would read 010110 which is 16 in hex. That would mean the key we are looking for is in hexadecimal.

Satoshi Nakamoto is the creator of Bitcoin and the initial developer of the original Bitcoin client. As stated in a P2P Foundation profile, it would be from Japan. Beyond that, very little is known about him and his real identity ... Well, leaving this aside I need to send me a wallet to mine bitcoin if it exists and explain the process.

OK I see your point and admit it.

The only place for a transition from inner track CW to outer track CCW or vice versa, i.e. from the outer CW to inner CCW is the top left corner. But while you can make full circles on the outer track (preserving the pattern) you cannot make full circles on the inner track, and this constraint singles out the top left inner flame, as the only place to start or end a route (if you go backwards, it must end there). You are right, I admit it.

All that PROVIDED you want to run through the whole image.

By the way, speaking of the possibility to circle through the outer track, I was playing with that idea that you make a few circles around the outer segments reading some features like inner color, then outer color, then length, then blob, AND THEN you move to inner track at the top left corner, and you can make only one circle reading only one feature (either inner color only, or outer color only, or blob only). The longer I think about it the less sense it makes, but it is a possibility, no?  

Well first of all this. ^^^

Then, I could be wrong, but....

Have you tried reading inner flames ccw? Pattern goes away. Unless you start on the bit where the cw pattern ends, top left inner track yellow green flame ( Because it can't loop into the outer tracks correctly)

Have you tried reading outer flames cw? Pattern goes away. Unless you start on the bit where the ccw pattern ends, ( Because it can't loop into the inner tracks correctly

Start reading where feedo suggested, pattern is not there (his is an odd bit). Start at the flame after feedos suggestion and the pattern comes back, but ends in a place where it can't easily continue to the outer tracks.

Soo.., if you care about having that pattern run through the whole image, the starting point is absolutely important. There is essentially only one way to do it (if you want inner track to be read first) and you can go cw or ccw.., but you gotta start at the first or last bit in the sequence., or read the outer  track first and the same rules apply.

Whether or not it is important to have that pattern run through the whole image, or if it's important to pay attention to... idk.

I mean, what does it matter where you start? The pattern exists on every second flame. There is no authority nor reasoning (at present, at least)  telling if it should be

or
or
or so on, so on (and you can choose one of two directions, too).

I mean, you can start the pattern on a short flame, long flame or undefined flame. And there is no reason to assume that the pattern cannot be started on any arbitrary flame, as smracer asks.

The only tricky part is going from inner segments to outer segments and vice versa - the only place preserving the pattern is at the top left corner

Curiosity has gotten the better of me..., Are you saying that these white squares are supposed to be an arm? https://imgur.com/a/fxlGn


As for your last comment, which I suppose is supposed to imply a hint that RealOnTheMF was on the right track.., I have a slightly hard time believing that, but it is certainly one of the odder things that's turned up.

Here is why I do not think that RealOnTheMFs message is a collision with the actual Cypher. A fair amount of the letters in the message were generated by bits from all 6 tracks. That means for those letters to appear in the same order while also uncovering what the missing letters are, we'd have to find a modulus that distributes the bits in a different order, but still places 27 bits in the exact same position.

It's possible that RealOnTheMF discovered the actual cypher, and his message is indeed the intended message. In that case, it's possible that the scrambled letters are another cypher key, or maybe another cypher in themselves..., but.., This means that the author created a message and applied a bacon cypher to it, then redistributed bits in the bitstring so that they are located in every fifth position. Then the author performed a  vigenere cipher and the resulting string has a 0 for every 6th bit.., even further, all the other even bits are 1? That seems hard to believe they would be able to do.., although not impossible (Obviously.., as we can clearly see that a message, whether intended or not, does indeed exist inside of this pattern).

After having performed now thousands of debaconings on random bitstrings, I know that it is actually really easy to generate words out of nothing using the bacon cypher. That said, they are usually smaller words like "are" or "barf", and not once have I ever generated three words together in a row..,, "iskeyfile" took 45 bits.., which seems unlikely they'd line up like that out of pure coincidence, although also not impossible.

in either case, it is a puzzling occurrence.

@feedo

Im comments only because you follow the rabbit. Do not Look me in the eye, it's hostile. Have you noticed that for a rabbit I have short ears but my left hand is raised up?

Do you see her now?

It looks from a different perspective like a pigeon and a dove always carries information

Congratulations @RealOnTheMF - he should know for what but this is not the whole picture, do you feel that you miss something?

In my opinion, the two most reasonable ideas for the leaves is that they are either pointing to something. Or they are indicating 17 needs to be used as part of the cypher in some way. (Maybe it is to be used as an exponent or modulus for some sort of diffie hellman esque exchange). Personally I lean more towards the pointing at something side of things. (The leaves point to flames, spaces on the board, and the blobs.., all the things people think data is hidden in... )

I know some people also think the leaves might be part of a biliteral cypher. I like the idea of using bacons cypher, because of how it relates to this poem.

Leaves are confusing me from the beginning. They just don't fit aesthetically being spread all over the picture to be a symbol themselves like turtle, phoenix, knight and queen. I'am almost certain they have some "functionality" outside of symbolism, but can't even guess what it may be.

I've been working on treating it like a Mad Fold-in (based on the line "distance and no space was seen twixt the turtle and his queen") with no luck so far. I did find one element of possible interest which is a line of 26 degrees drawn from the center of the spiral (lower left) intersects the tips of three leaves and the stem of the little one in the middle. Also two leaf tips can be joined with a 26 degree line the one on the left hand side pointing up and the one on the top pointing to the short orange/purple flame. Not saying these are leads just documenting my thought process.

I've said before that there appears to be an obvious statement "flames and leaves" indicated by that ampersand "&" near the knight. I think there is more to get out of the flames for sure but I wonder if anyone has any thoughts on the leaves.

It's only single group of trolls (or one person) trying to use the puzzle to scam people selling them "rabbit clues". Just ignore them, don't feed the trolls.

Of course not, but don't let the small details stop the rabbit...

The "1Follow me" clue came hot on the heels of the original release of this puzzle over 2 years ago. It was a comment from a user, not (presumably) from the puzzle maker. Therefore there is nothing (substantive) linking that cryptic clue to this puzzle. It may have been a ploy to distract puzzlers and if that is the case it was successful since the first 30 pages of this thread or so were dedicated to tracking down that rabbit hole which still has nothing tying it to this puzzle. If you can show me how that comment is actually linked to this puzzle, I may reconsider. People who claim to see a white rabbit also insist that looking at the puzzle ANY OTHER WAY is an ERROR, and SUCH BLIND FOOLS while not providing any lead that suggests that viewing the puzzle this way gets you any further along than counting leaf directions or blue squares or any other thing. That arrogance suggests to me three possibilities.
1) They know something about the puzzle but are trying to confuse or mislead.
2) The are just trolling.
3) they are deluded.

If the white rabbit is really a lead, then what next? If you can't show that it leads anywhere, then why insist that it's correct and all other ways of looking at the puzzle are a waste of time?
