On chain problems are easy to solve as there are thousands of blockchain backups (full nodes) to restore the state of the chain after any damage caused by the exploit. On the security of your private key, it is mathematically difficult to find them, so it's better if you distribute your coins across many addresses because 1000 bitcoins in one address is worth going after, but nobody would go after 1 bitcoin in one address.

Is bitcoin involved somehow? If not then it might be a good idea to move it to shitcoins board, I have heard people over there habitually complement new projects by saying "cool project".

Seems like theymos was waiting for the law to say it's not good to advertise mixers. Well, a leader should make the rules before others make them for him.

snip!
Took me 3 mins holding x on mobile keyboard to snip your post, you should spend your time on more important tasks than writing such a long post. What wallet are you using?

Ironically he is on the correct path, but he has a lot to figure out the right solution to bypass brute force method. Remember, never discourage people from doing something extremely difficult just because it looks difficult, some times a really easy solution is right around the corner, we just need to look more closely.😉

If more than one public key can satisfy these conditions, then more than one public key can be used to spend those coins.
Well, you are misunderstanding things here, there are no prv/pub key pairs able to spend funds from a single address, if that was possible it would mean a fatal design flaw in ECDSA, I know the code works with the public key, and the hash 160 as well as hash 256 of public key are irrelevant to ECDSA, nobody spends bitcoins by matching hashes of public keys.

My question is: if I have 2 prv/pub key pairs with colliding hashes resulting in a single address, now imagine me and you have that address but with different prv/pub keys, now I'm awaiting for a payment of 0.4BTC and you are expecting 2BTC, we could see 2.4BTC incoming transactions, but how can we now spend anything from that address while we both have valid keys which are not identical, the code has a flaw here, it can detect incoming txs but has no possible way of proving the ownership of the funds because of 2 faulty hash functions used, though the original concept of using public keys to send the funds is the best solution to resolve the collision problem.

Coming to think about it, having a system where you could use different keys to open a single door is the product of  a poor design and it endangers the integrity of the whole system.


I mean WTH, how do you validate signatures in txs? You'd pass the public key through the 256, 160 hash functions and say it's totally legit, lets confirm it. Not realizing that by doing so you are breaking the core of cryptography.
As they claim that Satoshi's coins are not safe because his public keys are exposed, on the contrary any coin attached to a public key is safe as it gets, on the other hand proving ownership by relying on back-doored hash functions is a deal breaker.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

If Satoshi Nakamoto Sign a message and transfer some Bitcoin from Genesis Block ?

Who will believe in him ?

Craig Wright ?  Or Dorian Nakamoto ?

I Dorian Nakamoto will believe in Him first. Because, he has enjoyed free lunch and a good amounts free Bitcoins.

For Craig Wright, it will be a night mare, he might think thatb BitcoinJesus is playing the Joke.

How about you as Bitcoin Talk Forum member ?

Will you believe it is the real Satoshi Nakamoto ?

Let's bet about it. I bet 22 Bitcoin from Genesis Block which came from transaction fees and some from some people. As I said, if Satoshi move 50 BTC from Genesis Address then there will another 22 Bitcoin there, so I must bet this 22 Bitcoin.

Those who will believe in him, he will distribute the 22 Bitcoin to them under riddle for them to win the whole 22 BTC.

Please make your comments wisely.

No body believe that I am Satoshi Nakamoto. Even though, I am saying I am Satoshi Nakamoto.

" Blessed are those who has not seen me but believe in me"
- Jesus.

"Don't believe, but verify"
- Nakamoto Satoshi



Guess too much money made the poor "real Satoshi" crazy, he doesn't know what to do with so many bitcoins. Quoted post is my evidence.🤣  

Let us keep the blocked genesis coins from discussion, I accept a simple signed message, but why would Satoshi do that? Why would he break loose chaos onto his life by coming out as the inventor?
1608  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Bitcoin address collision on: March 27, 2023, 11:04:58 PM
Didn't want to create a new topic, so here it comes.

What would happen if there are 2 identical addresses receiving funds? Since they haven't spent anything, we don't know their public keys which are obviously different, but the nodes/explorers don't know they have different private/ public key pairs, I wanna know how does that work exactly?

Since we don't have a single private key capable of generating more than one comp and one uncomp public keys, we know that there will also be no identical public keys, meaning private/public keys are unique by design, how ever there are combinations of collision happening at the same time, we have different public keys with identical sha-256 hashes, and we have different sha-256 hashes with identical rmd-160 hashes, both cases lead to identical addresses with different prv/pub key pairs, but there will never be a case when we can see different private keys spending a single public key's funds.

Main question still remains the same, how does the code handle receiving transactions to rmd-160 hashes to later realize there are 2 different valid prv/pub key pairs trying to spend from that address? Is there any error correction in bitcoin core dealing with this?

FPGAs can basically do anything you want it to. In the old days, you would need a hardware engineer to program the devices, but they are much simpler to program these days. I guess if someone puts the resources to it, one could be created one that mimics one of the software tools we use today. I'm a former Intel engineer, if I had worked with FPGAs back then I would look into it, but FPGAs were very new when I was in that field.


By any chance is there anyone here informed enough about FPGA's on their advantages over GPU, whether we could use them to generate addresses faster etc?
Cool, do you have any contacts at intel? Like how would one get in touch with someone on top at intel?

FPGA, is a new interesting topic for me, though there is not much info about it. If they are what I think, we could then increase our search speed 5 times.😉

Hello there, where is the private key for #120?

it is
Code:
02CEB6CBBCDBDF5EF7150682150F4CE2C6F4807B349827DCDBDD1F2EFA885A2630

and the coins were pulled on 2023/02/27
Cool story, but I asked about the Private key not public key,  he claimed to know stuff, So I tested him. 😉

IMO, all the wallets should replace "seed phrase" with "secret phrase, don't share". That way newbies won't confuse it with a normal bitcoin address.

Last 12 characters or in the middle? Post the key for everyone to see. You won't get any where alone.😉

Hello digaran, i am not running from anyone. This is a challenge has been running for almost a year by a russian person named phrutis.

Look his github, he has already a pool Splitting ranges running to try to solve, but the real question is, no body knows if thats even a legit challenge and most likely it will be fake.

For more info look here: https://github.com/phrutis/wif500


The known private key of the 500 BTC is 5bCRZhiS5sEGMpmcRZdpAhmWLRfMmutGmPHtjVob. 12 characters missing in the beginning of the private key which makes it even harder because of checksums.


Keep in ming again, this is not sure thats this is a legit challenge. Most probably a lie to waste time. Goodluck!
There are only 15,000 trillion permutations to check in order to find that key, my old laptop can search 1 trillion per day, 15,000 days to find it. Considering 60M/s speed wifsolver is showing on my screen, it would take me 7,500 days, and this is brute force.

It's hard to believe the owner is sitting idle and is not doing anything to find his 500 coins, it would cost him less than $2M to find his coins in a month.

However there is a faster solution, I will share it with the rightful owner if he agrees to escrow 10% of the funds as a reward.😉

I think that this happened last year and it has settled the problem which happened that time was effective for many people where affected but right now I don't think that that issue is still in existence so I believe that's why now the problem or the fight between the both country has been negotiated and be settled amicably
I'm still unable to open my favourite OnlyFans pages without VPN, so there is no negotiation, my country and their country will fight forever, we want free access to onlyfans, because we are just onlyfans.😉
