Here's an article about Coin Artist's prior puzzle with an excellent walkthrough from Shorena: http://bitcoinmagazine.com/14850/coin_artists-latest-dark-wallet-puzzle-32-page-solution/

Is there a link which goes into other puzzles? This looks very interesting and would love to see other previous riddles to figure out the "style" so to speak.

It's in block 136190: http://blockexplorer.com/block/000000000000062f5b02857af38c8afd0c3c84d75e35bc8a3ab1dca9913bd563
It looks like it was a destination address used by some kind of tipping app or something. If you follow the BTC senders through blockexplorer, the addresses are given some number of BTC which is then spread out in tiny amounts amongst a ton of addresses. Oddly, most of the addresses these BTC fractions were sent to were never actually used. So there's basically a tree that built out gobs of addresses with quasi-interesting names that have amounts like 0.000001 BTC in them. No idea if that's part of the puzzle but it's certainly curious.

Well well well-- seems that Coin Artist has gone dark on Twitter. A few hours ago @PO347 posted this: ". @coin_artist She sits and waits, he lifts the gate. Goodbye, no stay. It must be this way. #347"
Then Coin Artist put her Twitter account to sleep... Same thing she did during the solving of her last ARG until the end.
So we can assume she is behind this new puzzle. Haha, good one, Y.T.!!

It will be different this time, but apparently I cant totaly stay away.
I think shorena and rock_collector have covered most everything there is to cover. Perhaps worth noting:
3,4,7,9,12,16,30,37,43,48,51,55,59,65: is not a well-known integer sequence at http://oeis.org
I also checked a couple variants in case our sequence identification was incorrect/flawed.
On the other hand, 3,4,7 happen to be near the start of the Lucas sequence (basically Fibbonacci but starting with 2,1):
2,1,3,4,7,11,18,29,47,....
"Take a W@@@lk with me." and "1follow me" are the content added to the Alice in Wonderland quote. My suspicion is that both clues point to twitter, although "walk with me" could also imply walking along some kind of numerical sequence.
I won't be in on this too much for at least the next few days due to moving. I'm curious to see how things emerge.

1follow is not usable but 1foLLow, 1foLLoW, 1FoLLow, 1FoLLoW are all viable options. This should be easy enough to verify with a parser. I tried firstbits.net, but I think the site is broken.
As far as the twitter option: @@@ looks more like addresses in a row? Why not just say "w@lk with me," if we were to look at twitter?
That's all I have for now.
3. In the block chain sequence included in the OP, the quote appears in the position of block 46. Is there something special about block 46?

4. "1follow" is not usable as a public key prefix since it contains lowercase "l" which is excluded from Base58 encoding.

Some random thoughts...probably red herrings, but you never know.
1. Brainstorming on the fixation with the number 347. It's an area code for NYC (maybe a BitLicense reference)? It spells EAT in leet. (EAT ME? - Alice in Wonderland reference) 347 is a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedman_number since 347 = 7^3 + 4 Also, there was also a law passed back in 2012, HR 347, that seems possibly relevant:

http://www.snopes.com/politics/crime/restricted.asp
https://www.aclu.org/blog/tag/hr-347
2. Probably obvious, but the quotes on @PO347's twitter profile are references to the movie Top Gun. In the video of the scene (link below) 13 seconds in there is a shot of the tower with the letters "ELEV. 477" (not quite 347 - maybe a reference to block height 447 in the blockchain)?
