Bitcoin Forum

MOD EDIT:
Pretty sure this guy is just trolling.  OP if you edit or remove this I'm banning you.



Hello Folks,

I know this is a provoking title. I am working as a researcher at a european university and i have already dedicated many years of my life to revealing insecurities in bitcoin.
My first stept were to solve thy mythos about the fact that nvidia cards are slower than ATI cards due to a missing right rotate function. This is crap resulting from not so good developers: I have showed how to implement sha256 without using right rotations and speeded up nvidia bitcoin mining by factor 3. Additionally an extra speedup has been made by guessing if the hash will be a leading-zero one or not with over 80% probability 5 sha rounds ahead. A very welcome extra speedup.

Enhancing Bitcoin mining was not satisfying me however. I wanted to go more over the top so i started on revealing other security holes.
This for example involved finding low quality transaction signatures with weak random seed values and exploiting the signature algorithm to reveal the private keys via simple XOR operations.

Right now I am working on another attack by revealing bitcoin adresses incl. their private keys. Several "super brains" in here keep telling you that it is almost impossible to guess the right private key because there are as many possibilities as atoms in the universe. Blah blah blah, just some wanna be script kiddies repeating what the read somewere on the IRC channel. Here you get a couple Bitcoin Adresses and their Private Keys that i have found in the last 2 hours. Good collision rate, huh? Eventually we will find an account with several million $$$ in it.

If anyone wants to support my work so i can make it open source (all, also the nvidia miner kernels) feel free to donate to:
NOPE

If you want my hacking ideas and proof of concept scripts, just send me 10 BTC and contact me on PN:

... and many many more  :)

If you can hack bitcoin why do you need donations?   :P

Must be nice.

If you can get someone to donate bitcoins, why do you need to hack it?

Who said that i *NEED* it? Maybe I just *WANT* it?

Give me 100 BTC to prove it * lol

I think he will find it much easier to hack bitcoin than to get anyone here to send him any BTC.   :D

lol

Asking for donations, and asking for 10 BTC to reveal his super-secret hacking methods...

Get the fuck out of here.  If Bitcoin was truly this insecure, you wouldn't be asking for BTC that would be worthless if you were actually cracking private addresses.  This would mean Bitcoin would be tanking soon, to oblivion, and your 10 BTC from every sucker who fell for it would be worth the dirt under your feet.

Lets see a proof of concept.
I give you full authorization to break into the wallet on my phone. Please post my private key.
Address 1BgnX3rwyK9DzJHSuYPw2Kv9Zn73RxGiZ8

If you want proof that it is mine. Just ask. I can take a pic with it up on my phone.

lol

Maybe I'm missing something (and admittedly I may be) but what exactly does listing wallet addresses and private keys prove? I can create a bunch of wallets and list their addresses and private keys too. How do we know you didn't create those wallets? It's sort of a which came first, the chicken or the egg thing. If you are able to derive a private key from a wallet address, why are you only wallets that have had ~0.1 BTC or less in them? It seems more likely that you have created those wallets or are randomly generating addresses and then checking to see if they've had activity. In that case, you'll probably find that mining is more lucrative.

Also, if you have improved Nvidia mining by a factor of 3, write a Nvidia miner. There will be a line of people waiting to donate to you then.

It might just prove that there is a sucker born every minute, even on the bitcointalk.org forum.

That is why I asked him to post my private key. It is an address I do not care about. So, lets see if he can do it.

Asking for 10BTC without any proof whatsoever? You have 2 posts and you registered yesterday.

Don't waste the forum's bandwidth, scammer.

Can you crack anything else than vanity brain wallets?

ok

How about you sign a message with the private key of one of the top 10 bitcoin balances?

Then we might be inclined to believe you. But then again, if you have access to over 100,000 in BTC - why do you need us to do anything at all?

If he is just "cracking" brain wallets I have a bitaddress.org file that I modified to check wallet balances and activity, so you can check word lists or randomly generated addresses. When it finds a balance (or activity) it will notify you. It's javascript so not the fastest method, but it works and is all contained in one file. I modified it when someone on reddit posted a challenge to break in and steal 1 BTC from each of their 5 brain wallets that had weak passphrases. I found out about it the day before it ended and didn't end up getting into any of them.

I'll undercut IHackedBitcoin and sell it for the low, low price of a 8 BTC donation.  ;)

Act fast, supplies are limited.

I've donated 0.00001000 BTC. You'll get the rest after you've proved what you say...

I wish I had access to a few billion quantum computers and a few million years so I could hack wallets too!

Can someone help me?

I've just imported all the keys to my account. Is there a way to undo all the coins that were sent out from these addresses?

Is it really that hard?

Harder, since as soon as quantum computing becomes a semi-real threat, Bitcoin can & will switch to quantum resistant algos.

How exactly can Bitcoin just "switch algos"? I thought the algorithms weren't able to be changed.

I just hacked your account dude.

I am keeping your password the same so you can log in as the same person to acknowledge my hacking skillz.

If you want me to unhack your account send a donation to the address in my signature.

Nope, the algos are modular; both on the blockchain hashing side (currently 2 cycles of SHA256) and the address keypair side.  The code includes "hooks" that would permit another hashing algo to run alongside (and eventually replace) SHA256.  I'd wager that another algo will be in use alongside SHA256 by 2020, as SHA-2 type algos are not particularly resistant to quantum computing.  Also, the protocol deliberately provides an upgrade path for bitcoin addresses.  That is why all current addresses start with a "1" character, as they are all address type number one.  (there is another address type used only for testing, that starts with an "a" I believe)  Future addresses could use different algos, or have other definitive features that make them incompatible with the current address format; which would call for a new addresss identifier, and thus that first character would be different.  There is already an early proposal to make an address type that would still use the same algo, but use a modified value variable to hold sub-satoshi value sets; as an example.

Wow, here I was thinking that I had a pretty good handle on Bitcoins. Though I still haven't read the whitepaper, and this is a little further on the technical side of things.

Thanks for the info. I'd give you a small tip if I could find an address.

Trust me, I don't need the tip.

This reminds me of a Nigerian Email scam, "donate to me so I can solve bitcoin's insecurities, hack it and share profits with you. =p"

lies lies lies

Troll lol lol o lol

"I hacked Bitcoin, send me bitcoin for me to prove it to you!"

This was the part OP tripped up to reveal his very obvious troll post.

i will eat this guys face off like a rabid dog. he's no hacker hes a facker

I hacked Bitcoin once but I forgot how to do it. Can you please remind me?

You're a script kiddie, that's it!

I also hacked bitcoin, and I'll give you the proof of concept for just 5 BTC!

More power to your crusade!
But to be fair. Try not to ruin things in your boredom for the sake of filling your boredom.
If this is legitimate then you could endup taking food from peoples mouths doing this.
Just keep in mind there are always bigger fish.

Not really, considering you generated these private keys yourself. :-\

Can you please provide the private key for any of these addresses: (just one will suffice)

If you can't or won't, we'll assume your just full of shit, spreading FUD, and trying to scam poor suckers into paying to 10 BTC for your baloney.

Anyone who is actually stupid enough to reply to that email in the post above can expect a few hundred phishing emails coming their way for the rest of their lives.  Anyone with claims to hack bitcoin should back it up with some real evidence.  Posting several keys isn't evidence.  Theres only one address people care about.

its good that you think so but it will  be more better if you show how you hacked the network so go and do it maybe then we gonna see that you are real not a fake  ;D i have seen a lot of thread like this where people claim to do a lot to bitcoin network and then they fail and anyway if you know satoshi personally then why don't you tell us his location

it's easy to create new address + pricekey  :D
 :D :D :D :D

What... is this?
The thing is, he cannot crack an address in specific. He can just randomly generate ones and hopefully stumble upon one with millions of btc (Technically it's possible, but the chance is like winning the lottery a hundred times in a row, multiplied by itself. It's horrendously improbable.)

But OP, good luck with your scam. xD

/s/s/s/s

Man, the lengths some folks will go to in order to fleece bitcoin from newly minted cryptonuts.

First thing if anyone got some tricks for hacking bitcoins will not explore them publicly. So I think its just fog. and rumors not real.

Also demanding Bitcoins for test of service its sure for scam. Stay away or you will burn your BTC for nothing.

What the hell motivated you to necro-post on a topic 3 years old?

Are you drunk?

Or just stupid?

Neither. I didn't resurrect this thread. At least 3 - 4 other folks commented as well. Why am I the designated whipping boy?

How is this thread going 3 years after lol

Well 3 years has gone by since OP posted this thread and we still using Bitcoin securely.  ;D ... Even though this gem has been pulled out of the archives, it is still applicable today to serve as a reminder

to everyone that Bitcoin cannot be hacked.  ;) Yes, services using Bitcoin was hacked, but their weak code has nothing to do with the Bitcoin protocol. The fact remains that nobody has successfully

hacked any private keys generated securely and if someone manages to do that, all technologies including secure sites and credit card tx's will be hacked too, because most technologies use SHA256

{   Secure Hash Algorithm }  ;)

This is an old thread but i think the man who post that he can hack accounts i think its impossible to happen this new generation and bitcoin has new security.. he just trying to get some people  to donate from his skill without giving a proof..

haha, he may always get small results from the wallet he hack. so he asked for donations 10 BTC :D

really stupid, like a man who claimed can get bitcoin easily in large numbers, but sometimes they are still trying to sell it that way to get some satoshi lol

Definitely a troll. Last Active:  May 15, 2013, 10:30:48 PM

He just registered for this thread and never delivered any proof. I hope no one gave him Money.

I dont understan what he means all about but this is a old story of bitcoin some are trying to hack bitcoin but they are not success they are just trying people to fear for now i think its very impossible to hack right now every each people because they are now smart unlike people before..

If you hacked BTC you forgot mine because they are still there..

Why you need some donation if you can hack Bitcoin anyway? Your posting regarding to your project but showing no proofs smells fishy. It can be a scam probably.

Haha yeah dude you right, if he could easily get bitcoin why they ask for donations like beggars: D but this thread is already 3 years so do not made serious, because I think the op just sort of an inside joke :)

EDIT : plus op never appeared again since Last Active: 16-05-2013, 05:30:48 LOL

Ive had to bump this just for the sense of comedy :D

Not cool dude, better wait 1 year before bumping  ;D

Let's see how long it takes the Mods to lock it.

Wow  nice, show me how i will pay 100BTC for your amazing discovery  :D

He's dead. The Russian Mafia didn't think the joke was funny, after they kidnapped his ass to find out how he "hacked Bitcoin".

If you think I'm lying.  I dare you to find him.

we all can "hack" bitcoin just like mining, but it's not possible to cheat the block chain as it is solid like iron, you might be able to access
to some addresses but thats not hacking bitcoin.

This thread is  3 year old already. Op claiming that he hacked bitcoin but were still using bitcoin as of now. He just trolling in this forum and maybe ha can fool anyone with his joke. No fool would believe you since we are all using bitcoins as of now.. All people member in this forum uses bitcoin .

haha, yeah maybe you are right. He was killed after the Russian mafia in truth know he can not hack bitcoin as he explained in the thread: D

I can not deny, may I trust you than I have to look for HIM :D LOL

i do not think that it will be such a true news. i think it is not possible to hack the bitcoin of a person, may be someone sent it to you wrongly. i have never hear to news about such think so how can i believe that.

wow, i cannot believe people can post something like this, how can op think all people stupid like him.

3NVXE53nFT5x6D6V6j4qAZGcw8RR1wrNV9

should have over 2k in there
feel free to take 10 bitcoins out of there and explain us
oooh yeah, you can also just share the private key with everyone xd

Haha lol, you say that news? I guess it's not even an iota has news categories therein. Because I think, op only was making some kind of joke from the past to our debated today :D
But you are right, I guess have never encountered the news about bitcoin hack. But if some company is using bitcoin hack already everywhere :)
