Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it

[brainless]

I just got the information, but don't tell me where i got them from.

The solvers of #120 and #125 were the same persons and they were miners, they always had a mining farm which they minted dogecoins and Ethereum and other low altcoins.

They had access to huge GPU power, and most probably used Jean's Kangaroo for bruteforcing.

Most importantly; They are CURRENTLY NOW running and trying to hunt for #130 again! I hope we can be able to stop them and gain the 130's reward before them and before the end of the year. Based on calculations from the miners 3Emiwzxme7Mrj4d89uqohXNncnRM15YESs The estimated time for #130 to be hunted from the miners, should be around January 2024, February 2024, and if lucky already in December 2023!

So summary of the story: You have guys time before February 2024 to get #130's reward before the miners solve the third puzzle and get #120, #125, and #130.

comment this guy is correct

As @Etar said, we need to unite to stop the miners or he will take all prizes for himself.

and what kind unite??

Before January 2025 start  #135 #140 will be vanish too

Are you sure about the math? Assuming that @RetiredCoder don't add more GPUs to his farm, and the luck for the kangaroos jumps is almost the same I see difficult for it to be solved on this year, maybe before January 2026.

Check the dates:

Puzzle 120 was redeem on February  27, 2023 (anyone can check it here)
Puzzle 125 was redeem on July 9, 2023 (check it here)
Puzzle 130 was redeem on September 23, 2024 (check it here)

That was 1 year and two months between puzzle 125 and 130, with >100 GPU

Are you kidding, hero?! If you really mean it, come and help me! Not by donating, but by telling me if the magic circle helped you?!

Can anyone really explain why this happened?

PM me to explain what you did to these calculations and what do you mean, and I may be able to help you

Isn't it obvious? He aligned some decimal keys so they look nice to read, and then picked some lottery numbers on some random columns of digits, skipping a few numbers here and there so that he can end up with some sums he really wanted to get to. Because yeah, it makes complete sense to randomly pick some numbers and not others. Oh, and yeah, also needed a "third digit" but only for some rows, so the math all works out 100% error-free. Astonishing. Now he wants to know why that "happened".

Next step is escaping from the matrix - maybe via a Bingo arrangement or some Rubik cube. I bet a 4-dimensional 24-cell can also reveal the private keys.

Key was 2832ed74f2b5e35ee.

Did the bots snatch it? Alberto??

No idea, the prize was send to two different addresses.

my bot was off this week sadly Murphy's law has been fulfilled

@albert0bsd for what bot do they talk? can you give me a link to read?
Thanks

[tmar777]

Guys PLEASE,

can someone let me know if this holds true?

Can you explain to me how this happened or point me somewhere to read about it?
if this holds true, then can't this happen with EVERY single transaction in bitcoin?
I got confused!

There is a whole breakdown of everything in this thread. Lets say from around page 280. 10% hysteresis. But you will find all the info you could require.

Well actually all this topic is the only information available for those kind of bots. Please read all the mor than 335 pages of it until you find it.

Maybe when i have some time i would make a compilation about that specific topic

@tmar777

It seems the logical conclusion that #66 got sniped.

if this holds true, then can't this happen with EVERY single transaction in bitcoin?

I am 100% sure it is not computationally possible to find the 256-bit key within 10 minutes of the pubkey being exposed. (k*G can correct me on this one)

Anything above 135-bits is safe, given that #135 has a spend from 2019 and still no one has being able to claim the prize.

If you solve #67 -- you still have to one more uncertain step to make:
{
 A) Make the smallest transaction possible and pay the highest fee you are willing to (the bot will try to overwrite your TX with higher fee/B)

 B) Ask for a miner (MARA) to execute your TX without exposing the pubkey to the mempool. (Most recommend this option)
}

Problem with option B is you are still giving away the pubkey, so if the miner wants, they can simply claim the reward and say someone beat you to it.

Now the interesting question is which of the lower puzzles is safe to claim without having to worry about this extra step.

From what I have seen in this thread, only a few users here are qualified to even come close to a guess. #80 ~ #100?

Since we have no idea of the raw power that is waiting for a spend from the lower puzzles addrs.

I didn't think you were so dumb.
The chosen column is not random, but exactly from the top of the first digit of puzzle 66 vertically to the first line from bottom to top, and we added those 9 numbers (of course, I ignored the single digit number) and the first 3 digits of puzzle 66. came
90+99+68+69+4+59+21+46+7= 463
For the next 3 digits of the puzzle key, I used the same method as before without any changes:
83+76+39+74+78+02+55+51+4=462
Well, tell me now, where was this random selection and from different places? The two selected columns are exactly above the starting point of key number 66 and exactly next to each other.

Excuse me, I didn't look good enough, it all checks out now. You're definitely on the right track. Thank you for sharing your discoveries with us. Now the creator must come forward and explain it, to be able to break his formula. I am too dumb to be able to understand why your magic grid splitting leaked the first 6 digits of #66 (after ignoring the single digit numbers, of course). This gives me shivers.

Anything above 135-bits is safe, given that #135 has a spend from 2019 and still no one has being able to claim the prize.

Since we have no idea of the raw power that is waiting for a spend from the lower puzzles addrs.

I would not consider anything under 130 bits safe anymore, because if I would be RetiredCoder I would already have a good amount of stored DPs which would break any 129-bits key faster than doing it from scratch.

If it's to be solved in under 10 minutes, it again depends, because no one knows if someone has already built some DP database that is able to break some range in under 10 minutes. Why? Because it also depends on how much computing power is also used. Some people may attack using a single GPU while others maybe have an entire GPU rendering farm waiting to be booted up and execute the attack.

For a personal user with a single GPU and months of precomputing in advance, nothing under 100 bits is safe today. And that number can only go up as the GPUs become more powerful, affordable, and a proper DP database is improved with every day that passes.

Please stop showing off your intelligence; your magic matrix has no meaning.

Yes sure, as stated by @RetiredCoder he found #120 last year, then shifted dp, into #125 this year and found, right after 2 month he shifted dp into #130 and found, mean duration in between #125 #130 is two months, no change in GPUs , same he will shift#130 to #135, and before January 2025 you will see #135 found
My judgement could be wrong.....?

Check the dates again #125 was redeem on July 9, 2023 and #130 was redeem on September 23, 2024 That is one year plus two months.

Also I think that the DP shift may have some catchs please @RetiredCoder can you clarify this point? As far I know those DP need to have some amount of zeros on the public key right?

Ahh yes you are right
By mistake I understand dates
But still believe, very soon you will see #135 found
Your question about pubkey, in my view if it's able to get result of non floating point, by cuberoot or sqrt then it could find more fastest then normal kangaroo search

If pubkey multiplayer by 30240. (7*12*360)
Result could by dividing 1 to 10 without floating point

maybe vanitysearch, after this, help find more numbers of priv dip.

When I solved #125 I gave up because it became boring. I thought someone else would solve #130, but nobody did it, so after a year I started again and I spent about two months to solve #130.
Yes you can use old DPs to solve next puzzle, it helps a bit.
I will try to finish solving #135 in 2025.
