Ten years ago, Satoshi and Craig created a website where just like that from donations distributed 5 bitcoins to all those in need,and now some 0.5 bitcoins would solve my almost all problems. I join my friend and say if God in the world let him drip on my purse incentive prize for the promotion of cryptocurrency to the masses!!! 1HqqeH1VWDY9vJq8nF4C7BHQ3Yvzxak48V
Just so you know: begging is not allowed on this forum and you can actually be banned for begging. Not sure if this is begging but be careful.

What if you add your own personal coding to the obvious phrase?
Lets say, replace all the letters A with B.
For example "cbptbining finbncial conservbtism mbyonnbise" instead of "captaining financial conservatism mayonnaise"
Will it more difficult to get the key?
I think the point of this entire thread can be summed up as follows: Give up and use a secure random number generator based on a qualified true random number source of entropy unless you want to lose your Bitcoins.

I decided to drive the statistics. Calculate the partial repetition of a part of a public address, starting from the end or from the beginning. Bit repetitions. I.e 10101010111......0101010101 1101010101001011010100......0101010010 11010101010Match the end to 11 bits. 1101011011011010101010111......010101010110101010101 1101011011011001011010100......010101001010010101010 Match from the beginning to 14 bits. Private keys get over in a row. And looking for repetition in a public address. When repetition is found, the difference in the private key is calculated. At the moment, found such a minimum range. 24 bits: 2970 * 128 = 380160 (+-128) pkeys 23 bits: 330 * 128 = 42240 (+-128) pkeys 22 bits: 33 * 128 = 4244 (+-128) pkeys 21 bits: 11 * 128 = 1408 (+-128) pkeys 20 bits: 10 * 128 = 1280 (+-128) pkeys
Matching 19 or less bits are found with ranges of less than 128 keys. Of course, a jump (pass) to 380k keys, at a search speed of 1M per second, is nothing. But finding large ranges, you can make big jumps. Sometimes, when I look at clouds, I see that they look kind of like animals. I have seen a cloud that looks like a rabbit. One time I saw this cloud that looked very much like an elephant. I have seen many various animals in clouds. I believe that if you look hard enough at any cloud you will see that it looks like some sort of animal.

any tip how i can make raw public key like on this table ?
unsigned char rawpubkeys[NUMPUBKEYS][33] = { { 0x03,0x29,0xc4,0x57,0x4a,0x4f,0xd8,0xc8,0x10,0xb7,0xe4,0x2a,0x4b,0x39,0x88,0x82,0xb3,0x81,0xbc,0xd8,0x5e,0x40,0xc6,0x88,0x37,0x12,0x91,0x2d,0x16,0x7c,0x83,0xe7,0x3a },//== 1Kh22PvXERd2xpTQk3ur6pPEqFeckCJfAr#85 };
unsigned char rawpubkeys[NUMPUBKEYS][33] = { { .. add all strings here... "1Kh22PvXERd2xpTQk3ur6pPEqFeckCJfAr", // #85 };

Hi, folks! Great topic! Need some of your guru's help. As far as I understood, if we have i.e. 61. 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000013C96A3742F64906 - 1AVJKwzs9AskraJLGHAZPiaZcrpDr1U6AB 62. - 1Me6EfpwZK5kQziBwBfvLiHjaPGxCKLoJi 63. - 1NpYjtLira16LfGbGwZJ5JbDPh3ai9bjf4 64. - 16jY7qLJnxb7CHZyqBP8qca9d51gAjyXQN 65. 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001a838b13505b26867 - 18ZMbwUFLMHoZBbfpCjUJQTCMCbktshgpe means that privat keys for #62, 63 & 64 will be somewhere between 13C96A3742F64906:1a838b13505b26867. Am I right? If yes, how can I narrow the keyspace for #62 only? Even approximate range I believe will be ok fo try. Can a simple hex math be used in this case? Sorry if its a noob question.
And who prevents you to narrow a range of search? For search the private keys for address 62 is selected keyspace 2000000000000000 - 3FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF In this space it is possible to find about 2305843009213693952 variants. The project has started for a long time, therefore it is possible to assume, that about three quarters of addresses is checked up and among them no required. I.e. it is necessary to you to check up 2305843009213693952:4 = 576460752303423488 variants Can try to begin with 3800000000000001 - keyspace 3800000000000001:3FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF If this quantity of variants 576460752303423488 you divide into speed of generation of keys of your computer that receive a rough operating time Good luck! Since the entire search space for #62 is 2000000000000000 to 3FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF If you search the last 1/4 of the space from 3800000000000001 to 3FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF you will have exactly a 25% chance of finding the key assuming nobody else with much faster hardware finds it first. Good luck! You are going to need it.

I think, that after addresses #61 presumably factor will be even more in a range from K*4 up to K*6 It is possible, that the organizer specially has arranged addresses with balance with such different steps. My idea has appeared " complete delirium "!
We already know exactly how the author of the puzzle generated the private keys because he told us exactly how he did it right here in this thread. The private keys were made by taking a random number and then masking it to the desired bit length: #1 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (2 1 - 1) #2 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (2 2 - 1) #3 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (2 3 - 1) ... #60 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (2 60 - 1) #61 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (2 61 - 1) #65 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (2 65 - 1) #70 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (2 70 - 1) #75 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (2 75 - 1) ... #160 = 256 bit random number bit wise ANDed with (2 160 - 1) So, there is no pattern to be discovered.

Meanwhile, maybe there is some reason why somebody is sending fractions of 0.00001 BTC to addresses #62, 63, 64 and 66 (and #01 too ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) ) I do not see why. Sending BTC to an address does not expose any useful information. Spending from an address obviously does expose useful information as we have seen.

PS: I thought that everything called Federal.... was part of the Government over the US ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) It was named "The Federal Reserve" on purpose to fool people into thinking it was part of the government and it has "reserves" of some sort. Both of which are lies.

Fiat money does at least come from democratically elected governments (public institutions) so even if it's not perfect, it can be controlled, and is meant to be "for the people".
You obviously don't know that in the United States at least "fiat money" (the USD) is created by a conglomerate of private institutions: the Federal Reserve (a private institution owned by very large private banks and other private investors) and all the private banks in the private banking system. The United States government (originally "for the people" but now, due to the citizens united decision is, is "for the Corporations") then uses the money created by this privately held corporate conglomerate of privately held corporate banks and the Federal Reserve central bank. RESEARCH it. Here is a list of the stockholders/owners of the Federal Reserve system. Unfortunately, since is it a privately held congolmerate, we do not know the amount of stock each of the stockholders owns. But hey, at least we do know who owns and profits from our central banking sytem: http://philosophyofmetrics.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/List-of-Federal-Reserve-Member-Banks-2015.pdf

Maybe, but only if I can buy Bitcoins with it.

How is calculated the keyspace for each address? Thanks!
The sequence number tells you exactly how many bits are in the private key: #1 has 1 bit in the private key #2 has 2 bits in the private key #3 has 3 bits in the private key ... #60 has 60 bits in the private key #61 has 61 bits in the private key #65 has 65 bits in the private key #70 has 70 bits in the private key #75 has 75 bits in the private key ... #160 will have 160 bits in the private key Do you understand now?

Well, what is the sacramental meaning of the step through 5? And he just brute force? because, it seems, it is necessary that the address be translated to its public key lit up. Arulbero could not until there is no output, find the number or could?)).
The author of the puzzle did that transaction to spend from every fifth address. My guess is that it is an experiment to see how far people can get when there is an available spend transaction versus addresses with no available spend transaction. He has been known to visit this thread. Perhaps he will explain it. Obviously it is much easier to get the private key when there is a spend transaction on the address. #1 through #61 took a long time whereas #65, #70, #75 and #80 were snatched up pretty soon after the author added the spend transaction to those addresses. I expect #85 will also be snatched up in due time. As discussed #85, #90, #95, #100, #105, #110 are all within the realm of possibility given enough time and resources. It looks as if #115 would be a new world record so someone with enough equipment and motivation can probably get that one. Beyond that it is very iffy. Note that since there is a spend transaction on these addresses we will probably see more of them before we ever see the next address without a spend transaction, #62. This is a HUGE difference in effort. I think one of the take home messages here might be that due to this difference in effort and other factors having to do with privacy and the fungiblity of Bitcoin in general: do not reuse Bitcoin addresses. Bitcoin addresses should be used exactly twice: once to fund them and once to spend them - then never used again.

By the way, and you know why their puzzle addresses were removed from the 161st? My thought is that this is the limit of public addresses. That is the further search in the theory goes on a circle.
Because all the funds from 161 through 255 were redundant (Bitcoin addresses only use 160 bits) the author of the puzzle moved all the funds from the 160-255 ranged down into the 1-160 range. It is explained up thread.

In (coming?) the world wide adoption path all other Banks (except Carlton) will prefere the more transparent blockchains - so all tainted and on purpose more ano chains will be dismissed from that path.
You obviously do not know your audience.

Finding an active wallet is hard, but not impossible. Every time you open a random page, you have a chance of finding someone else's fortune. BTC
Yes, everyone that believes this should spend all their time opening random pages and checking them. That will keep the mathematically challenged busy and off this forum.

Here is some information for your research project: It is easy to calculate the public key from the private key. The formula is PublicKey = PrivateKey * G where G is a specific point on the specified elliptic curve and * is the scalar multiplication defined over the finite group of the elliptic curve. For all practical purposes it is impossible to calculate or even estimate the private key from the public key because there is no "division operation" defined for the group. That is what makes Bitcoin work. If you could calculate or even estimate the private key from the public key then anyone could calculate anyone's private key from their public key and anyone could steal anyone's Bitcoins. If anyone ever figures out how to calculate or estimate the private key from the public key then Bitcoin and a plethora of other system worldwide would all be catastrophically broken. In other words it is impossible to do what you ask even when you give us 10,000,000 Bitcoin addresses.

My comment about you stealing my Bitcoins was a joke. You can't steal them for the mathematical reasons I gave.
The only way to get the next prize is to brute force search the range of the prize.
You are correct that other people with much faster hardware will probably beat you to the prize.
There has been a lot of effort on this thread where people try to "calculate" (in other words guess) the expected sub-range withing the next prize range.
You could search their guess at the expected sub-range but again without faster hardware you will probably not win the next prize.
You could try to search randomly in the next range (or their guess at the expected sub-range). You will probably still lose but hey, you just might get lucky.
