Title: Mining VS Puzzle Dificulty Post by: entropybit on May 12, 2024, 12:58:13 PM Puzzle 66 is more than 2 years without anybody being capable to find its privkey, but compared with the dificulty to mining a block is exponentially easier, why no one put their power hash machines to mine BTC puzzles?
For exemple a mining block hash is 00000000000000000000 53795dbe26e2befb0c081e50826c88997900207d4c90 And puzzle 66 is 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 3a838b13505b26867 It is 27x exponentially easier. can someone go deeper on this analise of dificulty between a block vs puzzle 66? ---->1HELPME8PG2FVhGgLJjvXnRNqpfC5ossxU the dream of this address is to receive 1 whole BTC<---- Title: Re: Mining VS Puzzle Dificulty Post by: ABCbits on May 13, 2024, 09:29:00 AM If you refer to brute forcing address with known range of private key, then it's impossible task. ASIC for mining Bitcoin only can perform SHA-256 while brute-forcing address perform ECDSA operation which convert private key to public key.
