Title: Crack The Wallet for $150 !
Post by: spdrman on June 12, 2014, 11:18:27 AM
Crack the Hash !
=================
I have created a brain wallet made out of 14 Chars.
The password is made of Uppercase, Lowercase and numbers only.

The wallet address is 1F3yURwV994aECDpkC8v6L13wd1ZqJPNGs

Be the first to sweep this address and win $150 (BTC0.23349813) !



The first 4 chars are free:
D 2 c F _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _


Hints can be obtained via SatoshiBox:

Char 5: http://satoshibox.com/539984e04c347b8ba90084ce
Char 6: http://satoshibox.com/539985024c347b8ba90084cf
Char 7: http://satoshibox.com/539985314c347bd64200838d
Char 8: http://satoshibox.com/539985574c347b8ba90084d0
Char 9: http://satoshibox.com/539985e94c347b8ba90084d1
Char 10: http://satoshibox.com/5399861b4c347b8ba90084d2
Char 11: http://satoshibox.com/5399864b4c347b8ba90084d3
Char 12: http://satoshibox.com/539986684c347bd64200838e
Char 13: http://satoshibox.com/539986c54c347bd64200838f
Char 14: http://satoshibox.com/539986d44c347b8ba90084d4

Special Hints:
MD5 hash of all 14 chars: http://satoshibox.com/539987394c347b8ba90084d5
MD5 Hash of the last 10 chars: http://satoshibox.com/539987724c347bd642008390


I didn't do the maths behind this so I hope i don't lose :-)
When (and if) enough hints have been bought to cover the prize I will release a few more free hints.
If this works out and people enjoy it, I will release these on a regular basis.

Good Luck :-)

Will only take 14000 years on my computer to guess.

Since you have only 2 post, I think it can be a clever scam since you are asking money for hints.

I've seen this sort of competition before, didn't see such bad reactions to them back then  ???


How can i guarantee ?
I can sell the solution for $150 and start a new one :P

OR perhaps there is a way to escrow this ?
I'm willing to give a trustworthy mod to see the solution, no problem..

Yes escrow would be the only way I see this game ever happening.. And even then, it's going to require a lot of proof that it's provably fair, along with many other things.

Good luck tho  8)

Well, you can start by putting that $150 in escrow.

https://bit2factor.org/ is better
OP can chose a passphrase/Password and generate an intermediate code, which can be used by escrow to generate a bitcoin address and a encrypted private key.

But then again, who's stopping OP to claim those funds by using a multiple/alt account.

Exactly the reason I can't see this working.
Good to see innovating thinking though.

is it easy?

Your Idea was very nice and this would have gotten a lot of attention but escrow.ms is right, since you know the password, you can very well answer this yourself by alt accounts.

But had that not been the case, still it would not have been easy cracking a 14 char code with upper/lower case characters and numbers.

Probably is.  There is currently 0 BTC in the wallet now ::)  Surprise, surprise!

I guess he saw it didn't work, and ran :P

I've got to say it was a way better attempt than most of the scams in this section :)
