I could create hundreds of scripts that match the puzzle, but the creator most likely edited the keys manually, otherwise random would be used instead of pre-generated HD wallets.

haven't you learned to quote properly?

It is not manually it is with some script, errors = ZERO
Don't you think you are assuming too much, with the little we know about the creator? We really don't even know if he knows how to program or not.
you just want to justify your answer against all possibilities.
He simply said that he used an HD wallet and modified the keys with zeros and ones, that is, he removed part of the keys to establish the difficulty.
If it were done through a script, it would be used randomly and not a pre-generated HD wallet because it would save lines and lines of code because each puzzle is different.
Besides, you always do the same thing. You say that there is no mathematical solution other than brute force because you tried and you didn't succeed. You are supposed to be the god of everything and we have to believe you? At what point did science stop being based on questioning the rest?.
The fact that you have created software by mixing all the findings of other people does not make you a wise scholar, just another programmer.

What do you think, someone who can create such a big puzzle cannot write a 4-line code?
Code:
key = '910ed3ab5775b97da1a33e38b72eba94f90addff7051f276c9d6c538c369632b'
last_index = 0
while last_index <= 255:
    mask = 1 << last_index
    mask_hex = mask + int(key, 16) % mask
    last_index += 1
    hexa = "%064x" % mask_hex
    print (hexa)
It's hard to believe that they would manually write each puzzle after extracting 256 keys from HD wallet.. At first, I thought you were saying all this as a joke, but you're actually defending your point seriously, still... who knows  Huh can't be denied that it might have been done manually Huh

No we have to believe at least his one and only hint Roll Eyes


A few words about the puzzle.  There is no pattern.  It is just consecutive keys from a deterministic wallet (masked with leading 000...0001 to set difficulty).

First it's a big puzzle, why? only money makes it popular, it's not that he invented the wheel, it's a simple increment of numbers, the reason why I think He don't use a script is because anyone who has sufficient knowledge of bitcoin understands the limits of ecc and the associated hashes to bitcoin.
so to begin with it made no sense at all to put 256 keys from the beginning.
And if he used a script  could have used random, I don't see a logical position in using an HD wallet.
Based on that, he could have done anything crazy from then on.
It's like believing that the matches in 160 hashes have some relationship with the distribution of public keys in ECC, absurd.

But until the creator says anything, neither you nor I are right for sure.

Maybe because it more easy only save a single seed than 256 keys first or 160 later

I don't see any point in using an HD to make a script when you could use random, it doesn't represent an improvement in security (as you say, it's less secure than random), in storage, or in complexity.
and since you assume he knows how to program, I'll assume he must have thought of that.

a seed makes it easier to manage sensitive data like the private keys and addresses he generated but at the same time represents a SPOF (Single Point of Failure). However that's not a big deal. he must take care of safe storage either way. Whether he stores only one seed or several seeds safely, what role does that play in this application. Be it random or hierarchical deterministic, we're still stuck  Cool

As the "master math guru" of this community 🤥😂  I have always wondered, can God make it so when 2+2 you get 5, I mean he can do anything right? So how could we believe all of the rules of physics, mathematics? If it's possible to change the rules like that? It would be like saying since God can do anything, he should be able to clone himself infinitely, or more importantly, can God kill himself? These questions are taunting and impossible to know the answer for sure, but logic says he shouldn't be able to make 2+2=5, or create clones of himself or self destruct, that means logically even God has limits to his power.

But is that really the case?  Did he create the rules out of nothing or were these rules always there along side him?



I believe we are only one of the versions of infinite possible versions, so yes it is possible to see 2+2=5 under different governing rules of different universes, while it doesn't make any sense to us because we only know of 2+2=4, governing  principles of our universe does not allow us to figure out how it is possible to have two plus two equal five, this is our limit, we can't go beyond this limit.



Now what is my point? There is a solution to solve these keys, also there is a relation between rmd160 and ecc keys, just because we can't think what they are doesn't mean they don't exist. If you seek knowledge, ask the source of knowledge.  But if you quit trying midway, you will get nothing, so chop chop and God bless you.😉


Edit : this is my achievement after working on elliptic curve cryptography for more than 8 months.

I set it to print the result of subtraction, if you want to see the result for scalar_1 remove "print" from the third line and add "print" to first line, so result_1 is the result of scalar_2 division, this happens when I work by myself and a world dominating AI. 😂

Code:
import gmpy2 as mpz
from gmpy2 import powmod

# Define the ec_operations function
def ec_operations(start_range, end_range, scalar_1, scalar_2, n, divide_1_by_odd=True, divide_1_by_even=True, divide_2_by_odd=True, divide_2_by_even=True):
    for i in range(start_range + (start_range%2), end_range, 1):
        # divide scalar 1 by odd or even numbers
        if i%2 == 0 and not divide_1_by_even:
            continue
        elif i%2 == 1 and not divide_1_by_odd:
            continue
        try:
            # calculate inverse modulo of i
            i_inv = powmod(i, n-2, n)

            # multiply the scalar targets by i modulo n
            result_1 = scalar_2 * i_inv % n
            result_2 = scalar_1 * i_inv % n

            # divide scalar 2 by odd or even numbers
            if i%2 == 0 and not divide_2_by_even:
                continue
            elif i%2 == 1 and not divide_2_by_odd:
                continue

            # subtract the results
            sub_result = (result_2 - result_1) % n

            # print results separately
            (f"{i}-{hex(result_1)[2:]}")
            (f"{i}-{hex(result_2)[2:]}")
            print(f"{i}-{hex(sub_result)[2:]}")

        except ZeroDivisionError:
            pass


if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Set the targets and range for the operations
    scalar_1 = 0x0000000000000000000000000000000ff9450a667168a48762abcbe86653a6a1
    scalar_2 = 0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001

    n = mpz.mpz("0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFEBAAEDCE6AF48A03BBFD25E8CD0364141")

    start_range = 2
    end_range = 65

    ec_operations(start_range, end_range, scalar_1, scalar_2, n)

Note, you can also change "1" in the following line to divide by odd or even,
Code:
for i in range(start_range + (start_range%2), end_range, 1):

Replace 1 with 2 and print subtraction result to see it divides by 2, 4, 6 etc, replacing it with 3, will divide by 2, 5, 8, 11 etc, since our start range is 2 it will start from 2 and adds 3 each step.

Even though I have already posted the script for point calculations, to make it easier for you to havd both scripts in one place, here goes the same script operating with public keys:

Ps, I'm not working to solve these puzzles, I am just studying elliptic curve, I haven't tested my methods on puzzle keys.

@digaran
So I ran the code and I got 63 pubkeys
I need to ask what would be the target 1 and target 2
and how can I further divide the pubkey of 130 to as low as 100 or 90 or 80 bit range
after hitting a target from the public key results, how would I further calculate the private key to get my target private key

@digaran
So I ran the code and I got 63 pubkeys
I need to ask what would be the target 1 and target 2
and how can I further divide the pubkey of 130 to as low as 100 or 90 or 80 bit range
after hitting a target from the public key results, how would I further calculate the private key to get my target private key
You should try to put 130 pub on target 1 and put G on target 2, and then calculate the range like this:

Suppose we have a key in 130 bit range, dividing it by 64 gives us what? Lets try 2^130/64= 2^124, so you would need to have 2^124 public keys saved to compare the results of subtraction with, now if you divide 2^130/2^124= 64, now you only need to store 64 public keys starting from 1 to 64 for comparison, but you don't need to generate 2^124 divisions, just a few millions which would take a few days with my slow script, so first you need to boost the speed.

I have already discussed about the possibility of finding a solution to solve private keys, and this is it, I won't be guiding anyone step by step on how to do it, if Satoshi or anyone who really cares about bitcoin and actually is an expert, they will figure it out soon enough, I have promised God not to reveal the final steps to anyone, let's hope nobody figures it out.

Note, it's not an easy task, because solving each key requires a lot of steps, so many tries, so many errors but it can be done.

 There is no pattern here. But there is a time when a puzzle was created. I even went back in time and generating numbers from 2015. Every second of that year.


https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1306983.msg62144570#msg62144570

Almost six months ago, I undertook various tasks of a similar stuffs..

Code:
import random
from datetime import datetime, timedelta

# List of target Puzzle, each corresponding to a range
target_numbers = [
    (1, 1), (2, 3), (3, 7), (4, 8), (5, 21), (6, 49), (7, 76), (8, 224), (9, 467), (10, 514),

# Sort the target_numbers list by the first element of each tuple (the range start)

            low_seed = mid_seed + 1
        else:
            high_seed = mid_seed - 1

    return found_seed

# Iterate through the time range
while current_datetime <= end_datetime_pre:
    # Find seeds for all target numbers
    found_seeds = [find_seed_for_target(target, current_datetime) for target in target_numbers]

    # Print the results for each target number if found and not already printed
    for i, (num, target_number) in enumerate(target_numbers, start=1):
        if found_seeds[i - 1] is not None and target_number not in found_targets:
            linuxtime = found_seeds[i - 1]
            timestamp = datetime.fromtimestamp(linuxtime)
            formatted_time = timestamp.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')
            print(f"Puzzle {i} : Private Key : {target_number} | Timestamp: {formatted_time}")
            found_targets.add(target_number)

    # Move to the next second
    current_datetime += time_step



You'd be surprised what this finds. You just need to guess the year and date range. Grin
It takes a long time to find Puzzle timestamps above 20...

Yo Nomachine,

nice catch, where's our current puzzle 66 in there,

thanks works like a charm.

Have you tried from 2000 up to 2015? You should also try 1990 to 2000, don't leave anything to chance, because for all we know he was a random guy using time and date to produce entropy. 😉

Nope. Only 2014-2015

Puzzle 65
Code:
import random
from datetime import datetime, timedelta

# Specify the start and end date and times
start_datetime_pre = datetime(2015, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0)
end_datetime_pre = datetime(2015, 1, 15, 19, 7, 14)

# Define the range of numbers
min_number = 18446744073709551615
max_number = 36893488147419103231

# Specify the target number
target_number = 30568377312064202855

# Specify the target pattern
target_pattern = '305683'

current_datetime = start_datetime_pre
time_step = timedelta(seconds=1)

while current_datetime <= end_datetime_pre:
    # Calculate the time range in seconds
    time_range_seconds = 1

    # Initialize binary search boundaries
    low_timestamp = int(current_datetime.timestamp())
    high_timestamp = int(current_datetime.timestamp())
    found_datetime = None  # Initialize found_datetime

    while low_timestamp <= high_timestamp:
        # Calculate the middle timestamp
        mid_timestamp = (low_timestamp + high_timestamp) // 2

        # Use the middle timestamp as the seed to generate a number
        random.seed(mid_timestamp)
        generated_number = random.randint(min_number, max_number)

        # Check if the generated number starts with the specified pattern
        if str(generated_number).startswith(target_pattern):
            found_datetime = datetime.fromtimestamp(mid_timestamp)
            break  # Break out of the inner loop when a match is found

        if generated_number < target_number:
            low_timestamp = mid_timestamp + 1
        else:
            high_timestamp = mid_timestamp - 1

    if found_datetime is not None:
        print("Pattern Found:", generated_number, "Found Timestamp:", found_datetime.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'))

    # Increment the current datetime by one second for the next timestamp
    current_datetime += time_step

Pattern Found: 30568335039670351430 Found Timestamp: 2015-01-01 22:52:54
Pattern Found: 30568326435315315618 Found Timestamp: 2015-01-05 02:12:12
Pattern Found: 30568385998074263793 Found Timestamp: 2015-01-12 13:05:27
Pattern Found: 30568318046551998275 Found Timestamp: 2015-01-14 07:04:04
Pattern Found: 30568367946192456402 Found Timestamp: 2015-01-14 12:26:35

2015-01-14 12:26:35 is the closest... missing many decimal places.

 if we use the same timestamp  2015-01-14 12:26:35 - puzzle 66 starts with 490151 or
49015112019902008018

This is just an assumption. Smiley

Because it's not just time involved here in seed. A parameter is missing. Grin

Why do you use linux time? Satoshi was using windows, either vista or seven, maybe even 8, or xp. 😂 we just need to look for all the keys. Lol
You know what we should do? We should use the same technic to search for rmd160 hash patterns and find collisions. 🙃

I can assume that the Satoshi was using some script (errors = ZERO) with Lagrange interpolation, determining the formula that generates the values may require a different approach, such as symbolic regression or other mathematical techniques together with random numbers and time. I am lost in numbers and hypotheses now. I need green grass.. Grin

What I understand from your post is ZERO, because I have no idea what you just said, while I could pretend that I understand, lol.  Speaking of grass, yeah I haven't smoked for years.... wait are we talking about smoking them or hugging them?😂


Today I discovered something new, I just need to test a few things then I will post about it God willing. 

Ps, it's nothing important, just a few ideas to solve DLP, we shall see if it works or not.😉
