where i can find the big list of funded btc public keys?

it should be cool if the puzzle 66 will be in the halving block
The money for puzzle number 65 is at this address : 3GVSoQar7WnVMFjchpkNkh9UwkJbbdeCwM
Interesting even that it was moved in 2019 it still untouched

2019-06-08 00:39:02   BTC address:  3GVSoQar7WnVMFjchpkNkh9UwkJbbdeCwM

I think the person who solved #65 is very rich or has no interest in Bitcoin ...

 Grin Grin


Or maybe he lost his private key hahaha

Hello friends, it's time to make it public.
I hope these findings will help you find the keys.
The program used is Adobe Illustrator, where the keys are placed together around a spiral axis and separated by a distance.
The coloring is adjusted according to the work of zahid888.
What is strange is that with the font number 10 and the distance between the numbers of 600, we have an order and the colors are automatically placed in their own categories.
The stars selected in black color are the position of key number 66, and the next stars are placed in order up to key 70.
I have many more things and more detailed arrangements, and if I can and my condition allows, I will make them public.
Don't forget me if I helped you reach the key.

and what should i do after find the numbers?

how much is your speed with your pc Alberto?

My speed is no important, I get 1 Exakeys/s as far i can remember.


If i asked its because i want to buy new pc and need your advice for choose hardwares.

i have a server with 8 cores and 16gb Ram
Im using -t 8 -k 1024, the speed is 115 pkeys/s.
should I still using random mode or with this speed its good to use sequential mode?

is there any recommended command with this server for faster speed?

What if someone found the key and spent the btc to another wallet ( i know, pubkey...) but with a super high tx fee, like extremely high.

Which key? puzzle key? 66?

If the 66 key is spent it may enter in some bot fight each one will increase the fees compared to other until there is nothing left to spent but the final result is unknown

Not always the higher fee wins, chek my previous reply to this:

Just to mention that when the nodes have many FullRBF transacions not always win that one with more fee, here some examples, Dot with Green margin was mined, some are Testnet and other are mainnet



Here was mined a TX with 1 sat/vB instead of a 37 sat/vB


Here was mined a TX with 22 sat/vB instead of a 44 sat/vB


Here was mined a TX with 106 sat/vB instead of a 1032 sat/vB

All depens of what is the transaction that the miner selected to work with his hardware.

I tried to import a private key into bitcoin core but i got this error :



Only legacy wallets are supported by this command (code -4)

what should i do now?

If you don't show what command do you used, then there is no way to know what is wrong.

What kind of address are you trying to import? it looks like it is not a legacy one.




I tried to test this:
HEX fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffebaaedce6af48a03bbfd25e8cd0364140
WIF(c) L5oLkpV3aqBjhki6LmvChTCV6odsp4SXM6FfU2Gppt5kFLaHLuZ9
WIF(u) 5Km2kuu7vtFDPpxywn4u3NLpbr5jKpTB3jsuDU2KYEqetqj84qw

by this command  : importprivkey



Finally i found how to import wallets, but whats this error now... errors killing me haha



importdescriptors "[{\"desc\": \"wpkh(L5oLkpV3aqBjhki6LmvChTCV6odsp4SXM6FfU2Gppt5kFLaHLuZ9)#c9eja2dd\", \"timestamp\": 0}]"



[
  {
    "success": false,
    "error": {

      "message": "Rescan failed for descriptor with timestamp 0. There was an error reading a block from time 1711177032, which is after or within 7200 seconds of key creation, and could contain transactions pertaining to the desc. As a result, transactions and coins using this desc may not appear in the wallet. This error could be caused by pruning or data corruption (see bitcoind log for details) and could be dealt with by downloading and rescanning the relevant blocks (see -reindex option and rescanblockchain RPC)."

Thank you Alberto, the problem fixed now.

now , random mode is more useful or sequential mode?
is it good that we start at beginning of range or start from 10% or more of range?

That depend of your target, for small ranges sequential is good, but for largest ranges random is the best choice.

May please explain alittle how random mode working? is it different every time we start random?

I tried to test my speed with puzzle 120 which you put on github for test and thats working.
But when i try to start scan puzzle 130 the processing stuck in 0%

I changed the -k from 256 to 128 now thats working...
in windows -k 256 worked

The issue may be some configuration of the WSL enviroment sometimes it is capped at a certain percentage of the Host RAM please check:

Im using this command :
.\keyhunt.exe -m bsgs -f keys.txt -b 130 -t 4 -s 10 -k 256 -S
should i change something or this is my power and i cant do anything more ?

Your problem is the .exe and windows stuff

Don use it on windows, compile it your self in a WSL environment or native linux

The lastest version is Version 0.2.230519 Satoshi Quest it provide an increment of speed X2 compared with previous version


Thank you for your advise , now im in WSL and i did everything exactly from your github, but after 10 min the processing is sill in 0

for puzzle 66 i used bsgs with i7 7500U and that took 30 min to scan all the range.
is it normal or i missed something to make my scan faster?

Well in the case of Keyhunt BSGS the speed is made by a combination of CPU Generation, Number of Thread and Memory available

Also some other considerations Like: Is the blooom filter File already available? , with the -S parameter you triger the load or creation of files just to be available the next time of execution

In mi case with bloom filter files available
My laptop: "11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1145G7 @ 2.60GHz" with 8 GB of RAM  and 8 threads the program found the test key in 5 minutes
My PC: 13th Gen Intel Core i7-13700 with 32 GB of RAM and 24 threads the program found the test key in less than 1 minute
and the same PC with the BSGS server the program found the test key in less than 20 seconds (The difference here is that the files are already loaded in memory)
For keyhunt issues/doubts/talk please use the next topic: Keyhunt - development requests - bug reports

Yes the the bloom filter file is ready, and my cpu is 7th Gen and Ram is 8.
for puzzle 130 my speed is (10Pkeys/s)
Im using this command :
.\keyhunt.exe -m bsgs -f keys.txt -b 130 -t 4 -s 10 -k 256 -S

Ok, but what is it that makes having the public key so much easier to find the privat key ? What role does the public key play ? What is it about the public key, that helps the program find the privat key ? What does the public key tell the program, that makes is easier to find the privat key ? Does the letters and numbers of the public key have anything to say, or what is it ? Why is it not blindly when you have the public key ? What do you see, when you have the public key ?

We can do some basic arithmetic operations (blindly) with them.

But this is only useful when you know some information about the privatekey like the range ( smallest ranges are easy)

how to find public key of an address which has transactions (in and out)?

and how to find public key of my BTC address which i have private key.
18  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it on: March 19, 2024, 07:22:01 PM
If we found a private key then can we import that into bitcoin core?
19  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it on: March 19, 2024, 04:05:37 PM
By which program you cracked that? and how to find thats in what range?

I use keyhunt the program that i develop:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5322040.0
https://github.com/albertobsd/keyhunt

But other programs can also be used like Kangaroo

https://github.com/JeanLucPons/Kangaroo

There is no way to know the range of an address.

But since we are talking here of puzzle 66 i did the test in the bit 66 just to check if that address was in that range, and actually the key is of that address is in that range!!

Other address besides of low bit puzzles aren't vulnerable to this.

As soon as the person who finds puzzle 66 sends the transaction to the network, pubkey will appear without requiring network approval. Once Pubkey appears it will take 1 second to find the private key. Then, someone else will spend again because the network approval has not yet occurred. The person with the highest network approval will own the bitcoins. Even if you send with a high transaction fee, the person who receives a higher transaction fee and network approval than you will win. For this reason, Low puzzles are problematic.

Exactly all the non-confirmed transacctions are public avaible in the mempool of each node.

Also there is sites to check them https://mempool.space/ also they offer some api to check for some values

https://mempool.space/docs/api/rest#get-address-transactions-mempool

Once that you get the TX id, you need to download the Raw transaction, decode it and extract the publickey and that is easy to do if you know what are you doing.


If find the Pkey by pubkey is so easy like this, then why puzzle 130 didnt solve yet?

Well for puzzle  66 is really easy (some minutes/seconds) but since the complexity is exponential it will take a lot of time do that for those bits ranges, months or years depending of hardware.

Here we are talking of low bit puzzles less than 80 bits are solvables by GPU almost in less than 10 minutes (in avarage the time needed to mine a block)



Thank you for answer albert0bsd, I have 2 3070 gpu, how can i use them both in keyhunt for bsgs mode?

thousands of bots are drooling waiting for your transaction, your hard earned bitcoins will evaporate like steam over a pot
now no one will scan 66 address ddd

How can bots get ahead of me? Let's say I solved the puzzle without using the site and only I know the private key at the time of sending the transaction. please explain how this will happen because I apparently don’t understand something
