Where can I find these public key puzzles?

Sorry, very new in this.

Not all puzzles have it available only those that have some Output transaction.
Any output transaction? Aren't the new transaction scripts protocols avoiding exposing public keys at all? I had the idea that only in very old transactions outputs could you find public keys.

You cant use BSGS for 66. Public key is not visible. You can only use BSGS for known public keys, and the source you provide, you arent using BSGS, you are using normal -m address which refers to normal bruteforce. You need to use the -m -bsgs commandline. for BSGS fast speed

I see, thanks for explaining.

What would you recommend using in #66? -m address with 66.txt or -m rmd160 with 66.rmd? Any pros and cons of each vs the other?

Can I leverage my RAM in -m address or -m rmd160 to make it faster, or only BSGS has that benefit?
Why would you wanna waste time and energy on address only puzzles when you can spend the same time and use the same resources to search for puzzles with known public keys,  either learn how to utilize bsgs for public keys or use kangaroo.

Where can I find these public key puzzles?

another question haunts me, about the two modes:
- - normal search over the entire 66 range (./keyhunt -m rmd160 -f tests/66.rdb 66 -l compress -R -q)
- - or still bsgs by public key (./keyhunt -m bsgs -f tests/125.txt -b 125 -q -s 10 -R)
on the one hand, the 66 range is less than (total) 73786976294838206463 and the 125th is already 42535295865117307932921825928971026431
it turns out 66 I can take the number of possible keys and divide by the speed, then I will understand how much I need to search for the key.
but on the other hand, the public key search algorithm is not a simple search, how to estimate how many possible steps in bsgs?

Where did you get that 66.rdb?
6  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Keyhunt - development requests - bug reports on: July 10, 2023, 11:12:55 AM
Hello guys, noob here, sorry:

Why don't we have a 66.pub file? So I can use BSGS?

This is my command line, and outputs, does this look good? Is it a good speed?

7  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / How can one make a transaction that any address can claim it just by solving the on: July 09, 2023, 07:56:00 AM
I just learned that Mike Hearn created a Bitcoin Puzzle transaction where the first person to solve its scriptPubKey, could claim that transaction's amount as a reward.

The thing is... Aren't all the transactions forced to have a destination address? So, even if the winner solves the scriptPubKey, how can then he/she divert the funds to another destination address?

Do you have someone who you trust who can also take care of the platform in case you are busy?
No, alas I trust no one.

I've also paid up hosting costs for the pool hardware for another year. There have been enough block solves to cover the fees for now, so that even though the community offered to fund it, for the time being I'm still happy running it without funds. At some stage I may need to revisit the hardware being used as we've moved a couple of generations of performance since I started the current iteration of the pool and it may benefit from faster hardware with more storage now.

Will your (future?) children inherit the server?

Sorry about that. The bitcoin daemon finally lost its shit and the pool went down since the bitcoin daemon stopped responding. I've restarted the pool. I will have to look at updating the bitcoin daemon at some stage in the near future, along with updating ckpool to work with it, but for the time being nothing has changed.

Has anyone else seen this "0 chips found" error. I have the latest Zadig installed and the windows driver.

So when I the .bat file I get

Not sure what is wrong here. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

I am having the same issue

BSD 10014891: found 0 chip(s)

I think it means the miner died.

Do they still produce these miners?

13  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Do you know any mining retal website that generates VAT invoice? on: March 27, 2022, 06:14:50 PM
No there is no mining rental that will give you a VAT invoice there are only mining rentals that I know legit Nicehash and MiningRigRentals.

If this is all about the tax why not track your mine coins I think you can use this website below to make a Tax report.

- https://cointracking.info/

Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm looking for something else, let me ellaborate.

The thing: is I live in a very unforgiving country tax-wise. If I take the money out of my company as a salary, about 60% goes to the state, through direct and indirect taxes. Corruption here is high, and if you earn above average, they try to take every single penny out of you.

So I wanted a way to be able to take that money out of the company tax-free.

My idea was to use the company's money to buy mining services, as an IT business expense, and then profit from the mining itself (which is tax free), and actually never convert it to fiat.

I am also thinking in creating a small VPS/host providing service, receiving Monero as payment. But I don't have any kind of infrastructure nor knowledge to maintain many servers and a hosting service.

I want to mine through my company, but I need an invoice to declare the expense.

However, I haven't found any service that provides an invoice...

Have you hit a block yet? How long have you solo mine?

I've made one full week of 5PH

0 blocks, so hurray!

Bitcoin is getting centralized.



Hello to you all.

Quick question...

I cant find the stats using my BTC address... It goes to 404 page not found.
Why is that?
Im mining for a day. Is that because my hash is too small?

Hi ,

Trying to mine this pool using ./cpuminer using

./cpuminer -a sha256d -o stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3333 -u xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -p c=BT

It looks like it mine normally (see bellow). The problem is that I have a "Not found page" when I go to

https://solo.ckpool.org/users/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Not Found

The requested URL was not found on this server.

What Should I do ?

Thanks

Because CPU mining is sooooo slow, it might take days for the pool to figure out that you are actually mining.

If you use an ASIC miner you'll see it show instantly.

It's in german, I don't understand.

But you tried it with 500PH/s and it didn't find any block at all??  Shocked

Yes and for 24 hours

500PH/s, 24h, 0 blocks.

I'm just going to cry in a corner, be right back.

1.365.791.872.716


Neue Bestshare aber nicht ausreichend genug für den Block, da fehlen noch ein paar Zahlen um den Block finden zu können aber wir bleiben optimistisch! Um wieviel Uhr endet der Run ungefähr?

this is why i say 20PH is better because a longer run is bettrer

By that logic we should go with 1TH/s  Grin

But I understand what you mean.

The mining algorithm is prepared to promote:

Low hashrates for a veeeeery long time period.
and
Insanely high hashrates for short bursts.

We could, for ex, get 1 EH/s, or 500PH/s, and use it for 6h. We would probably get a block.
20  Local / Mining (Deutsch) / Re: Groupbuy Solo Mining - Blockparty 2022 Number 13 on: February 11, 2022, 01:50:44 PM
ca. 12h haben wir noch

ok
