Testing JLP's kangaroo with an RTX 4090 and getting a speed of 2230 MK/s.
What speeds are you getting? eg. for RTX 3080, RTX 3080Ti, RTX 3090, RTX 4080

...
NotATether, what is your speed experience for GPUs?

JLP's kangaroo for example is definitely not fully optimized when it comes to this...

Hi @all.

Testing JLP's kangaroo with an RTX 4090 and getting a speed of 2230 MK/s.

What speeds are you getting? eg. for RTX 3080, RTX 3080Ti, RTX 4080

Thanks for your answers.

What you need, is something like that:
Code:
Point multiply(Point first,Point second,Point base);

Very interesting. Maybe we should ask user ranochigo. He could know if this is possible. [I will DM him]

2. Anybody can sign a message from this address:

They're saying that the first Inscription on the blockchain is the valuable one. All following Inscriptions/Signatures have less or no value. And the participants accept this. Eg. there are Bitcoin Punks and the same Punks as second Inscription (i2 Punks).

The keys were leaked after that article https://news.bitcoin.com/an-unknown-individual-signed-a-message-associated-with-btc-block-1018-reward-was-minted-16-days-after-satoshi-launched-bitcoin/

This thread "old Bitcoin addresses as 'NFT' on the Bitcoin blockchain" started 2 weeks before Casey Rodarmor inscribed his first picture on the Bitcoin blockchain. We should ask him if he knows this thread.

I think you should warn the users about the risk behind getting this address and private keys, since there are more people who have a copy of those private keys, then the users who buy this will risk their money if they decide to send coins to those addresses.

If the goal is only to use those addresses to sign messages, then there is not a big deal, but people must know how these addresses are a high risk for the funds.

These addresses were unused which received a specific 'signature chain', they contain some sats to transfer the 'signature chain' to the buyers own address. The items exist only 1/1, so nobody else can buy it after purchase. Only one buyer will have the private keys. I have the private keys too, but it is the same situation like coin-mixer. The mixer has the private keys of the new addresses too.

Yes, I will edit the 1st post that the new owners shouldn't use these addresses for their own transactions.

Now some items on OpenSea: https://opensea.io/collection/signature-chain

The items include the private key of the Bitcoin address for the given 'signature chain' as unlockable content that can only be unlocked and revealed by the new owner of this item.

We are very early.  Smiley

You missed the first part of my post, how do I send the signed message to another address? Where can I find a buyer? Is this just the concept or can we do it right now? What wallet should we use, where to announce our NFT etc.

Everything testing manually at the moment and it is working. There is no marketplace or explorer so this thread is the only place where one can inform about 'signature chains.' But user nutildah recommends to look at emblem-vault on OpenSea. I was already checking it because of ordinal 'NFTs' on the Bitcoin blockchain and it seems to be the perfect opportunity to exchange 'signature chains.'

If you are interested in commercializing these for sale, I recommend looking into Emblem Vault. Its a way to lock assets in a Bitcoin wallet and then turn it into an Ethereum token (the thinking is it makes it easier to sell on major NFT marketplaces). You can also attach a signature chain as text which can only be unencrypted by the token's new owner.

https://opensea.io/collection/emblem-vault

I will test emblem-vault a bit and post the results here.

This looks more like an altcoin than NFT.

It is an NFT because:

A non-fungible token (NFT) is a unique digital identifier that cannot be copied, substituted, or subdivided, that is recorded in a blockchain, and that is used to certify authenticity and ownership.[1] The ownership of an NFT is recorded in the blockchain and can be transferred by the owner, allowing NFTs to be sold and traded. NFTs can be created by anybody, and require few or no coding skills to create.[2] NFTs typically contain references to digital files such as photos, videos, and audio. (source: Wikipedia - Non-fungible token)

In our case the NFT refers to the previous Bitcoin address.

It is not an altcoin because NFTs are uniquely identifiable assets, they differ from cryptocoins, which are fungible.

But you should consider that 'signature chain' is a new type of NFT. Read the second post to understand how it works.

In Mittweida kann man jetzt Snacks mit Bitcoin bezahlen

"Matthias Hahn (62) ist sichtlich begeistert: "Das ist absolut krass", sagt er. Am Montagmittag war er der erste, der aus dem Snackautomaten in der Werkbank in Mittweida einen Schokoriegel zog. An diesem bezahlt man mit der Kryptowährung Bitcoin. Was kompliziert klingt, funktioniert im Mittweidaer Coworking-Space Werkbank32 ganz einfach.
Das kann man am Montagnachmittag beim Tag der offenen Tür in dem Haus an der Bahnhofstraße 32 erleben. Dort erklärt Tim Käbisch (25), wie das Gerät funktioniert. Der 25-Jährige hatte zuletzt das Projekt "Bitcoin-Snackautomat" am Blockchain Competence Center der Hochschule geleitet. Wer will, kann den Automaten auch gleich selbst testen."

Der Automat steht hier:

Gibt es mehr davon im Lande?  Smiley

I like these NFTs. But the concept is better, bought one, hope that it will work.

Are there other links like twitter, facebook, instagram?

Read this article : https://www.mdpi.com/2227-7390/8/10/1645 in this para 3. A Small Subgroup Attack

Read the article:
"this approach does not undermine the system security but highlights the importance of using fair random sources during the private key selection."

These guys didn't create their addresses with random sources. The article is about that issue and not about Bitcoin's security.
