No big mistery of that:

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFEBAAEDCE6AF48A03BBFD25E8CD0364141


Ok, do you know how we can shift the place of bolded part? To make it look like this:


EBAAEDCE6AF48A03BBFD25E8CD0364141FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

Or even better, imagine this is target :

0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001234567

Now how can we make it look like this:

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF1234567EBAAEDCE6AF48A03BBFD25E8CD0364141

Edit: people will love you when you play dumb, you see how their tone changed after I asked a stupid question?

I don't like what he did once with a thread I posted on, but I managed to deal with it, after all they are "moderators" all we can do is complaining, but now talking about PMs, merits, being in cahoots etc, is a bit childish because there are several archives available to access, so there is no hiding things.

What bothers me, did you guys discuss about plagiarizing before or not? So if it was already discussed, it makes no sense to delete old posts now, if he had nothing to hide, why trying to hide it now while he knows it can not be erased from archives?

"Anyways, I know it hurts when you get several of your posts deleted in a short amount of time, especially when you are in a campaign, I wish we could throw a couple of hundreds on the table to compensate for the lost posts, nobody would have bothered to complain then."


I'm speaking from psychological viewpoint in the quoted paragraph above, I'm not pointing fingers at anyone.😘

so you owe an explanation. Where are your studies? If there are none, you obviously and unmistakably admit that only hot air comes out of your keyboard mouth. Empty assertions and showing off without foundation.

@citb0in digaran didn't read Mastering Bitcoin he mistaken the book for Mastering Trolling, How to divert topics and get paid by bitcointalk campaings  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

TBH it is kinda funny, in a few times he reply some good answer
I wonder, did you buy the laptop you promised to buy and work on GPU version of your tool? If yes can you link to it?

Since we all getting paid here by posting, is there any one who is also getting paid who can shed light on this key?

Code:
0000000000000000000000000000000ebaaedce6af48a03bbfd25e8cd0364141

Note, if you guys have difficulty reading my post where I mentioned 25 years, either use a translation tool or reread it, so you don't come here looking like an idiot just because you didn't read carefully.

In case you are wondering what that key does, figure it out yourself, if you don't know anything useful, keep your nonsense spam to yourself.

While my goal here is to make sure a long lasting and fully secure Bitcoin, some of you are only here to line your pockets, and you would empty any address you come across, so this ad hominem and ad nauseam tactics don't work on me.

Also can you show me a post where I claimed to be an expert in cryptography/mathematics? If you can't, it'd be better to report my posts as suggested earlier. Meaning, stop your bs.

On a side note, I take back what I said about not posting here, I will scratch that and continue posting here, if you have a problem, open your own topic to discuss your plans about emptying people's addresses.

There is an illusion that anyone can solve the puzzle 32.
*There is no illusion, here puzzle 32 is already solved:
0xB862A62E

My man Elvis, I see you have grown a pair, good for you.
Remember nobody is going to solve them for you, and honestly, I am an idiot trying to help you here, from now on, you will see less posts of mine on this thread.

Keep up your good work, you can do this, you can solve any key as long as you have the private key. Lol

*= what did you expect? I'm an idiot, remember? 😅

Tools that allow you to reclaim your financial privacy like Samourai Wallet (a powerful, privacy-preserving wallet for Bitcoin) and Monero (a cryptocurrency that protects sender, receiver, and amount in every transaction) are indispensable tools for freedom, and should be something you practice with regularly, no matter what the state says.

That should be a joke, or is this another samourai we are talking about? I haven't verified this, but apparently they work for microsoft and ban sanctioned countries.

Ever since the invention of CCTVs, and smart phones, achieving privacy has become expensive, you can have it, but you have to pay the price.
One thing our mentally happy elites running the governments can't understand is the fact that, more you censor and try to control people, more privacy oriented projects such as Monero, Tor etc would gain adoption, they don't realize that they are slowly digging their own graves.

Well, if he decides to remove his unjust tags from several? Forum members and then decides to put aside childish grudges, forgives any insults and just continues his life, I don't see any reason to remove him from DT.

But you know, we humans just can't think beyond our personal feelings, meaning we are incapable of forgiving insults,(to achieve the capability one has to be so great of a person with so much practicing, we can achieve that).

I don't know if you ever experienced this or not, when someone is insulting you, if you ignore by forgiving him, and if you do not seek revenge, the other person would feel ashamed and most importantly they learn from you.

But again, you know? Ego is hard to put a leash on.

From experience, when I see such people, I start respecting them, they become someone I'd like to look up to, that's how one can build a strong character in a community.

Where are your studies?

768  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it on: October 28, 2023, 05:37:20 PM
Wasn't there a claim that experts have been working on ECC for 25 years? Yet I couldn't find a few things which I discovered by experiment in any book/ article.


Did I claim that I have solved DLP? No, you want my "studies"? You can hire me, I will bring at least 1 person with me for help, I strongly believe 1 year could be enough to either partially or totally break ECC, if God helps us.

The answer is in N, the group order.😉
769  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it on: October 28, 2023, 03:53:53 PM

And then there's the fact that all of the hex values (as strings, minus the leading zeros) all appear to be grouped into groups of 4 by character length...? (e.g. the first 4 hexes are all 1 character long, the next 4 are all 2 characters long, etc...)
This is a hex key, 0x1000000 , tell me how can you add or drop one 0 from it? By dividing it by 16 or multiplying it by 16, so if you want to increase the bit range/ difficulty, you'd have to do it every 4 keys, 4*4 = 16. This way you can make sure every key is in the right bit range.

The whole point of this multi million dollar puzzle is to have zero pattern, being completely random. As he stated that he didn't think of it as a puzzle, people did.

You want a quite  place to think and work?
You think you have seen off topic, spam?
You think someone is trolling, harassing forum members?
The third option is not a presidential order, is my suggestion, visit trust page and tag in red color.

@VHS/DVD/vhh, what is your academic background? Which university did you graduated from?
What is the UID of your main account? If you want answer, first respond to above questions, but I can tell you are one of the butthurt trolls.  I can tell because I never talked about multiplying two points(I only once said it's possible but never posted a script claiming it can do that).

@all of you whining kids, go find something which you can actually contribute to, all I see from you whiners, is whining.
@citb0in, 😂 you are still whining but silently with merits.

I don't know how else I put it, WHATEVER definitive results you can get when working with scalars, applies to points as  well. WHEN, you work with scalars, change the last digit from 1 to 9, see what changes in the results of division, divide by e.g, 256 and see what changes in the result, divide your target by 256, divide x2 of target by 256, divide half of target by 256, divide 1/16 of target by 256.

When you are done, go back to step 1, and this time change the last digit, do all the previous steps, rinse and repeat.

Or if you can't do that or don't understand how it could help you, stop hunting for puzzles.

Is it open source? If yes, who audit and reviewed the code? By pasted, does it mean it just copied whatever was in your clipboard or it just accessed the clipboard to be ready for when you want to paste an address to send coins to?

I can't tell why a wallet app which has access to your private key wants to know the content of your clipboard.

Moreover, if you do not write the received data to a file, but simply display it on the screen, then the script works great.

Ok, try this one,
Code:
With open("S-1.txt","a") as file:
    file.write(str(i)+" = "+str(C)+"\n")
    file.close()

    With open("D-1.txt","a") as file:
    file.write(str(i)+" = "+str(D)+"\n")
    file.close()
If it didn't work, appeal to our future overlord aka AD(artificial dumbness).😉

Hello.
Tell me how to remove this error?
PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied:

No matter what I tried, it didn't work... Huh

Code:
C:\BTCPazzle>test.py
Target: 0230210c23b1a047bc9bdbb13448e67deddc108946de6de639bcc75d47c0216b1b
Traceback (most recent call last):

    data = open("D-1000.txt","a")
PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: "D-1000.txt"


What did you try? Did you try running as administrator? Sometimes I used to get that error, I don't know the exact reason, because it wasn't always happening. It just returns that error because your system doesn't allow the script to open the text file, maybe change your directory?  Try like this if you are using windows, type in search box inside BTCPazzle folder, type cmd and hit enter, then type python test.py hit enter, this should fix it.

I think your comments/scripts confuse people more than helps them, IMO.
I thought everyone is a cryptography expert around here, or worked for more than 25 years on EC, if my methods confuses you is because you don't try working only with scalars to penetrate N the group order. If I explain everything step by step, where would be the fun in that? Have you shared anything you could discover by operating over scalars?
Whatever method, equation you can use to get definitive results over scalars, applies to points as well. I have explained how to get meaningful results based on that before. To Alek on a few previous pages, regarding how to get target /1024 for sure.

@mcdouglasx, sorry to hear that, I hope it all goes well God willing. Take care.🤲

Is there any script allowing us to generate GPG private/public key pair offline? What are the curve parameters for GPG etc?
Would this tool also store the GPG key as well? Isn't this a bit risky to keep all the keys/passwords you have in a single place? What if GPG has a backdoor?

@digaran if it were you holding such power over someone (who did bad then and want to change) would you let that person pass through such just because you think he or she doesn't deserve a second chance, what I mean is that if the person decides to be of good behavior, not going things that goes against the rules and regulations of this FORUM, would you threat that person the way you just said it or sketched everything?
I speak rhetorically, whatever I said is the mind set ruling the environment here.
Personally? I don't care if a bunch of people are cheating, as long as they don't spam and derail conversations and contribute, all they will take eventually would be at most $1m per year? The real concern is about the ICO/ordinal/NFT scams or other services where they can collect millions in a month and disappear or keep milking people for years. On forum sig/bounty cheating and other pity subjects are insignificant.

I would never burden myself with such power, one single mistake could destroy all the goods you have done in the eyes of God.
It's a hard task to be a judge, I don't deserve it. If I do judge people, because I hold no authority, however if I'm mistaken, I would correct it.
780  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it on: October 27, 2023, 12:31:38 PM

Not sure what doing it that way would do, except cause confusion lol.
You know about point torsion? It subtracts 1 from target then divides either by 2 or anything you want, but we want similar code to subtract whatever we want, keeps all the subtracted keys, does the division and repeat the same with the results, in this *way when we work with scalar instead of points, we can observe and learn by tweaking our values step by step. That's how you learn, by studying the small details.


I just used my double point torsion script and it seems it doesn't work the way I wanted, that's why I tried to save the results of that script to separate files and use another script to subtract the results in the files.

One other thing, I thought if we multiply by n/4 -2 , 3, 4 or by  n/4 + 2, 3, 4 we could get for example target.75 or 1/75, or 1/25 of our target, I haven't tried it yet on scalar, but I know for sure that if you multiply by n/2 +2 you would get 1/5 or one and half of your target 1.5, then imagine dividing that by 2, you'd get 0.75 of target, then multiply that by 3 to get 2.25 of target, 2.25/2 = 1.125, then you could continue that and see what happens in scalar. You could find patterns that way.

I might cause some confusion sometimes, it's for the best, as hyenas are lurking around the corner.😉

Edit, I'm not sure if I have shared the 2 point torsion subtraction script before, it's useless. Ignore it.😅
