I'm getting syntax errors when it says

result = 1L

and when _p, _r etc. are defined and possibly elsewhere. I just copied and pasted the code, perhaps I'm missing a module or something?

You have to use Python2 not Python3  Wink

Any status on that gpu script?

A neat way to get the real answer maybe to make a pool out of it. Basically we start at 0 and the pools gives lets say 1000 numbers to check and report back. It gives it to each miner in work sorta like when you are mining at a pool and getting shares. Then when we get the solution which ever user did the most work gets the most % of the prize and so on down the line.


I don't think we are accounting for how big a space is encompassed by 2^256

This bounty is just a joke.
Because finding K is a joke.
I see what you did there.

Could we have a screenshot of you finding that? I can't test it because I'm not sure how too.
The person is joking about the K he or she found Wink

Smiley I am a python programmer and I gave it a try to bruteforce it Cheesy because it seems to be only way - and it is like "impossible" as we know.

Sure I was joking. Because this bounty is a joke. And price is a joke too Smiley

Or not! Smiley

How would I test only one code like you did here:

Code:
=======================================================================
0x9772c99f2db406a441000d9288ba9cd7ed05e7a0ae02e09615b7cd39cb8b1cedL not matching 0x79be667ef9dcbbac55a06295ce870b07029bfcdb2dce28d959f2815b16f81798L

Sh&^! I ve got it

k  = 254634957345987934598347597261842936423946893247.

Smiley will I get the price? Smiley
please?

nope, because your solution is wrong:

Code:
=======================================================================
0x9772c99f2db406a441000d9288ba9cd7ed05e7a0ae02e09615b7cd39cb8b1cedL not matching 0x79be667ef9dcbbac55a06295ce870b07029bfcdb2dce28d959f2815b16f81798L

for me it does match Tongue your code is bad Cheesy

Hmmm, why a 1000 BTC bounty when the prodigy you seek would likely take 10? or 1? or just do it for the heck of it?  I bet the OP is fishing for free hints and there's no bounty anywhere.

I guess you bet wrong. Tell me the k first, then you get the first payment of 500 BTC, then you give me the hints/solution afterwards and claim the remaining next 500 BTC. Simple as that.

I meant to say: show me the money

(random meme here)

How are you going to deal with the money if someone does find it? surely they aren't going to tell you and then your just going to give the money is a escrow going to be used?

HOT HINT:

Just a hint, how you could get rid of inverse_mod(x, p)

Note, that inverse_mod(x, p) = x * x^(p-2) mod p

(but verify this, I just had this idea and I am not sure if this is correct in all cases)

More infos at:
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/ModularInverse.html
http://math.stackexchange.com/questions/25390/how-to-find-the-inverse-modulo-m

What would you recommend a complete beginner on this? i have never ever heard of this concept before and would like to learn a little more about it and possibly get to contribute to this thread.
