1  Other / Meta / Re: Project Development becoming AI announcement. on: February 27, 2026, 10:51:25 AM
I should have at least received some kind of warning or notification before my threads were deleted. It wasn't spam. I worked on some of these projects locally for months before I published a single initial commit, and there are public dates and commits on GitHub for each project. It's not 1,000 commits a day, but a few or a dozen refined ones.

I've also had a GitHub account for many years and participated in many open source projects before AI agents was created. I don't understand why my threads were deleted.

It's true that I helped AI with some things (everyone does that these days), but I also verified everything and participated in the code myself.

The fact that these threads appeared several times at once is because I wanted to publish them, not because they were created in a single day (as can be seen on GitHub for specific projects).
2  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Legendre Symbol Oracle Breaks ECC on: January 26, 2026, 12:57:44 PM
First of all, for the curve p=79, the ratio is 100.

You're right — I used threshold k <= 33 instead of k <= 34 (your function is called "in_first34" after all). My off-by-one error.

That said, 100% accuracy on a 67-point curve where you hand-crafted the decision tree by inspecting all cases is not impressive — it's enumeration disguised as an algorithm.

Okay, I'll issue a challenge. Since it's possible to do this for toy curves, try creating a 100% successful example for any curve greater than 79 (where a=0 and b=7) and where the order is prime?

That's not how burden of proof works. You claimed to have broken ECC. You need to demonstrate it scales.

But for reference: the next curve y² = x³ + 7 with prime order is p=127, n=127, G=(1,32). Go ahead and show us the oracle for that one.

The reason your p=79 oracle works is because with only 66 non-identity points, you can manually construct a decision tree that partitions them correctly. For p=127 you'd need a more complex tree. For secp256k1 (n ≈ 2²⁵⁶), it's computationally impossible to find such a tree — and there's no theoretical reason one should exist.

What would be convincing:
- Show the algorithm that generates these decision trees
- Demonstrate it on p=127, p=521, p=1279
- Explain the mathematical basis for why Legendre symbols would correlate with scalar position

Your p=79 result is curve-fitting, not cryptanalysis.
3  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Legendre Symbol Oracle Breaks ECC on: January 26, 2026, 12:38:33 PM
I ran an empirical test on your claim. Here are the results:

Your toy curve (p=79, n=67): 98.5% accuracy — impressive!

secp256k1 (actual Bitcoin curve): 49.0% accuracy — literally worse than a coin flip.

The problem is obvious: your decision tree was hand-crafted for that specific toy curve. The "magic numbers" (p6, thresholds, branch conditions) don't generalize — they're overfitted to p=79.

I also ran statistical analysis on Legendre symbol correlations:

CurveL(y) correlationL(x*y) correlation
Toy (p=79)0.4240.667
secp256k10.048noise

On secp256k1, there's no statistically significant correlation between Legendre symbols of point coordinates and the position of k in the keyspace. The differences are within random noise (0.01-0.08 across thousands of samples).

This is expected. If such a correlation existed, it would be a fundamental weakness in the curve that would have been discovered decades ago by actual cryptographers.

Your "Puzzle 130 solved in 1 second" claim remains unverified. If you actually have a working oracle for secp256k1:
1. Post the code
2. Solve Puzzle 135 and claim the ~$1M reward
3. Or at minimum, provide a verifiable proof (signed message from a puzzle address)

Until then, this is just another "I broke Bitcoin but won't prove it" post.

- No CUDA kernel sources = unknown what the code does
- "Authentication required" with GPL-3 = licensing nonsense
- "100% clean, no backdoors" promises = unverifiable

Besides, what's the point of this project? Is it an experiment, playing with code? The closest thing to an unsolved puzzle with public key is 135; pure brute force has no chance here.

6  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Existing Code for Generating Biased Nonces or a Database for Research on: January 13, 2026, 08:22:34 PM
I'm building a suite of Rust tools for blockchain security research:

vusi - ECDSA signature vulnerability analysis. Currently implements nonce reuse detection with private key recovery. Roadmap includes:
  • Biased nonce attacks (HNP/lattice) - #3
  • LCG nonce detection - #4
  • Polynonce attacks - #2
  • Vulnerable signature generator for research - #8 (generate biased/LCG/related nonces with controlled parameters, 64-bit down to 1-bit)

vuke - Weak key generation analysis. Reproduces historical vulnerabilities: brainwallets, Milksad (MT19937), MultiBit HD bug, Electrum pre-BIP39, LCG/Xorshift PRNGs, SHA256 chains. Both generates weak keys and scans for them.

vusi follows the same architecture - one tool that generates test data and analyzes/attacks it. Complete research pipeline.

If you're interested in contributing or testing, repos are open.
7  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it on: January 06, 2026, 12:51:43 PM
I made a Rust library that includes all b1000 puzzle data: https://github.com/oritwoen/boha

Code:
$ boha list b1000 --unsolved
$ boha show b1000/71
$ boha balance b1000/71

All 256 puzzles with addresses, solved keys (hex + WIF), transaction history, solver attribution where known. Data compiled into binary - no external API needed.
Might be useful for anyone building tools around these puzzles.
8  Local / Polski / Coindeal z nową platformą z dźwignią do PLN on: July 14, 2020, 12:17:26 PM
Cześć, ostatnio Coindeal wprowadził dźwignię na swoją giełdę. Nic nie byłoby w tym nadzwyczajnego gdyby nie to, że chwalą się, że będą mieć bitcoina do złotσwki na lewarze aż do x50.

Co można im przyznać, to że prężnie się rozwijają i warto założyć polski wątek, bo pojawia się coraz więcej pytań, obserwacji a widać, że mają parcie na polski rynek.

Co do dźwigni to na ten moment wersja demo jest bardzo okrojona - jest tylko para BTC/USD. Osobiście czekam na parę do PLN bo tym mnie zachęcili - w końcu będzie można oszczędniej lewarować niż na XTB czy innych brokerach.

Sam ich w ostatnim tygodniu trochę prześwietlałem i katowałem na czatach. Oczywiście nie obyło się bez wątku Chainalaysis, ktσry został wyjaśniony logicznie . Ciekawie mają rozwinięty w tym temacie wątek swσj na forum.bitcoin.pl. (https://forum.bitcoin.pl/viewtopic.php?f=55&t=27984&start=520)

Z moich obserwacji na ten moment:

na plus
  • fajna funkcjonalność i stabilność platformy,
  • sprawny support, szybko odpowiadają na pytania (ale nie testowałem 24h więc nie potwierdzę czy działają non stop)
  • USDT do PLN
  • wpłaty tradycyjne do PLN,
  • całkiem dobra płynność BTC/PLN porσwnując do innych "polskich" giełd prσcz BitBay.
  • dobra płynność BTC/USD i BTC/EUR co daje możliwość ewakuacji do fiata w razie braku chętnych w złotσwce,
  • API

neutralnie:
  • ciekawie zapowiadająca się dźwignia Coindeal Derivatives, na razie tylko DEMO
  • inny sposσb ustawiania lewara niż na ByBit, Bitmex co powoduje, że trzeba się przyzwyczaić z 5 minut,
  • apka, ktσra jeszcze nie ma dużo funkcji ale zawsze może uratować gdyż nie ma SL.

na minus:
  • brak wypłat PLN na rachunek bankowy - tylko Skrill
  • brak exspress elixir, BLIK itp.
  • kiepska płynność USDT/PLN

Czekam na dalsze ulepszenia dźwigni i płatności, ale zapowiada się już ciekawie.

10  Economy / Investor-based games / P3C.io | game that models Universal Basic Income | PowH3D contract on ETC on: August 06, 2018, 03:15:54 PM
P3C.io is a game that models Universal Basic Income. A fork of the PowH3D contract, on Ethereum Classic.

  • You buy into the contract by purchasing tokens, every token purchased increases the token price by +0.00000001 ETC.
  • 10% of what you spend to buy the token gets distributed proportionally to all other token holders.
  • When you sell your token, you get back ETC at the specified price, and the global price per token goes down by -0.00000001 ETC.
  • 10% of what you would get back for the sale is distributed to all other token holders proportionally.
  • When a user uses your Masternode link to buy tokens, 33% of what would have been distributed to the community gets given directly to you in the form of dividends.

Remember: For every P3C you buy, the buy/sell Price rise for each token, increasing the value of your (and everyone else's) P3C. When cashing out the buy and sell price fall the same way, decreasing the global value of P3C.

How to Start Playing

Step 1: Download an Ethereum Classic compatible wallet (we recommend Saturn Wallet for Chrome).
Step 2: Configure Saturn Wallet, setup a password and save your seed words. Make sure you keep those seed words safe!
Step 3: Change the network from Ethereum (ETH) to Ethereum Classic (ETC).



Step 4: Disable Metamask in your extensions.



Step 5: To acquire Ethereum Classic to use P3C, we recommend using Shapeshift.io.

Step 6: Go to P3C.io, buy your tokens and try to hold on!



Long Term Vision

The vision of P3C is to generate passive income for long-term hodlers, almost like a decentralized insurance program. You can invest in P3C when times are good, possibly for years, and then if times are bad, or you see a better investment opportunity you can sell your stake, for a fee, back to the contract. The code that governs this process isn't controlled by any humans, and is entirely driven by an autonomous smart contract on Ethereum Classic with no oracles. It's important to think of P3C in terms of years, not days.

We plan on using the Masternode system to enable enable content creators to collect tips via investment through their masternode. In our vision of a Win-Win economy, rather than just paying a tip to read content, you invest through a creator's masternode which both gives you future profits through P3C, and the creator recieves a bonus for their work.

We are also actively pursuing partnerships with other DAPPs in Ethereum Classic that need help bootstrapping through both investment and promotion. If you're a DAPP developer, we would be happy to discuss how to integrate P3C to help jumpstart your economy.

Why is P3C on Ethereum Classic?

Because we believe this game has the potential to grow to many players all over the world, we wanted to launch it on a chain that we know is immutable. Ethereum Classic is that blockchain. At some point in the future, people could be entrusting their savings to P3C, and we want to make sure that trust is deserved.

What is the RainMaker

RainMaker is a smart contract, virtual "player", that holds P3C tokens and will always use any dividends it earns to reinvest in the contract further to provide more dividends to users. It has no ability to sell, transfer, or get rid of its tokens. In a sense it's the HODLr of last resort of the P3C economy. It currently has over 11,000+ P3C, but this will grow as more boom/bust cycles occur, and the RainMaker continually reinvests.

Keep in mind that the RainMaker is completely separate than the P3C smart contract. It is simply a custodian of coins that were created when the game was originally launched and is a completely voluntary element of the P3C ecosystem. It can be called on the P3C page by clicking "Distribute Community Fund".

Is P3C a scam?

  • A pyramid scheme is a business model that recruits members via a promise of payments or services for enrolling others into the scheme - Wikipedia
  • A Ponzi scheme is a form of fraud in which a purported businessman lures investors and pays profits to earlier investors using funds obtained from newer investors - Wikipedia

Pyramid and Ponzi schemes fail because they require new users to recruit other users. While this is observable in the initial growth phase of P3C, constant user growth is absolutely not necessary to sustain P3C, in fact P3C can work between a group of 10 people as a mutual support organization over the course of many years. Users put in funds when times are good, receive dividends, and then when times are bad, or they need to retire, or break their leg, they can liquidate their position, paying a fee to do so. This is actually closer to decentralized insurance. There is no need to recruit more members for its survival. It is provable smart-contract based accounting, and can't be taken down because it's on ETC.

All of these schemes in the past have failed because they had a centralized point of failure, a bookkeeper that could make a mistake, or attempt to defraud users. Because we use an entirely open-source contract, and a RainMaker contract as a buyer of last resort, we avoid this central point of failure. The core of this project, like Bitcoin, could survive without any Dev team maintaining it.

Hello everybody!

We would like to announce what will change regarding Bounty Campaign and why we decided to close it.

As you may already know, we are preparing rebranding and implementing a new strategy of development. We started to get attention from investors unrelated to the cryptocurrency industry, which turns out to be a turning point for the original project. It is also a more effective way to build astonishing oasis for pioneers, travelers and digital nomads around the world. You can learn more about rebranding here: https://bit.ly/2L1o6r2

The strategy is changing, but in a long run it leads to the same goal.

So because of that, the most reasonable decision in our case is to close current Bounty Campaign, settle all stakes with our participants and reopen it when the time is right.

So here is what happens:

  • Tasks will be counted to the end of May 15th 11:59 PM (UTC+2)
  • By the end of the week we will announce: Summary of all stakes & How many Hotel Coins they are worth
  • Tokens will be send to your dashboard so please make sure you have created account with the same e-mail address you entered in Bounty forms. If you don't have an account, register here: https://dashboard.blockchainhotels24.com/register
  • We will notify you in this group when everything will be done
  • Our Bounty Telegram Group (https://t.me/BlockchainHotelsBounty) won’t be supported since next week so please ask your questions about our project on our main Telegram Group: https://t.me/blockchainhotels24
  • Please, stay in this group (https://t.me/BlockchainHotelsBounty) anyways because when we will reopen new Bounty we will announce it here!
  • This topic bitcoin talk topic will be closed and deleted in next week

–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

We would like to THANK YOU all once again for your support and belief in our project!

Everything is going in a good direction and soon you will see results of our work.

Have a wonderful day!

This is really interesting.

Might be the first time that I'll join an ICO Smiley

Thank You! Cheesy

Hello, Hotel Coin community!

HCI trading is now available on ERC20 DEX: http://erc20.exchange. Good trading to all of you!

This is rather impossible. The contract does not allow trading before the end of ICO.

REMEMBER, DO NOT SEND YOUR HCI TOKENS ON ANY TRADING PAGE BEFORE ICO COMPLETE.

There should not be a big problem. You have to report it to the Bounty Manager on the telegram.

If I registered for the bitcointalk signature bounty campaign on April 25, does it mean that only posts beyond that date will be counted?

Yes.

Also, is the post going to be counted if it is in a native language? For example if I post under Philippines thread.

This is not prohibited in the rules, however, be aware that in topics where there is very little traffic, posts may be rejected.

ADDITIONALLY, writing on topics related to BlockChain Hotels is also not calculated for obvious reasons.
