Title: New puzzle! 1 Bitcoin to the winner
Post by: Compiler on May 22, 2018, 07:04:50 PM
Reddit user's were surprised a few days ago with this. The winner will earn a bitcoin. Satoshi Nakamoto is the author, and he says that the answer, is in a specific book, it's in "White book of bitcoin". Who knows, you can win that if u have time... ;D

To verify that the announcement of the reward is real and legit, Cryptogreetings added a link to the address where bitcoin was loaded.

Here is the link: https://blockchain.info/address/3CcxyPhyvyc3S9UuPfu42GNZLvVVV11Uk8 (https://blockchain.info/address/3CcxyPhyvyc3S9UuPfu42GNZLvVVV11Uk8)

And this is a message by Cryptogreetings saying "this is real": https://jhoenicke.github.io/brainwallet.github.io/#verify?vrAddr=3CcxyPhyvyc3S9UuPfu42GNZLvVVV11Uk8&vrMsg=This%20is%20real.&vrSig=JBVR6xgey1k80FJlaBP1XyddQK%2Fvwc%2BPOFT9s9g583hfGUhFm2yEtns4lq3j%2BTskS3qEgqcZGeZYC%2BOGvqTmxA4%3D

This is not a new puzzle by any means; it has been around for more than two months. And I do also agree that it might not be real—Cryptogreetings, the puzzle creator, moved the prize a couple of times, and also sold a 'greeting card' that he claimed would help finding the solution to that puzzle. Seems like a promotion for his site. Who knows? Might be legit, but I am not biting.

Satoshi Nakamoto is the author
You make it sound like this challenge was from Satoshi himself. The wordcloud this "challenge" is based on the whitepaper of Bitcoin instead.

Anyway this was posted before and proven to be a fake. Don't waste your time on this!

Perhaps the most amazing fact that will be awarded to the puzzle solver will be the identity of Satoshi himself, it would be amazing right? But I do love to see people cracking the puzzle while finding out the person behind the puzzle or read things between line like how detective solve crimes while understanding the killer note...

I'm rooting for everyone who joined...
