Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

What if I can open all of them at once? Would that not overwhelm the miners? They can't be watching all of them.

What if I just sweep all of them at the same time? What if I know how to generate all of them, the same way he did? Where I have all of them, all at once? What then? It's like being frozen and unable to walk from the casino to the parking lot just to get back to your car after everyone around you heard you won... How do you get back to your car safely?

I need help and I don't know where to find it...

It's been 3 days now and I still can't come up with a safe way to get back to the mother fucking car...

I think you don't understand what the "problem" is here. What happens here is what the bitcoin protocol is expected to do. What is not expected is that someone can obtain a private key that "does not" belong to them, and that can only happen with the certainty of a certain proximity as occurs in the case of low bit puzzles.

9 bit - 256 bit ... they're all the same as far as I'm concerned. Only difference here is that it looks like it's considered "acceptable" for one to take what's in the addresses that are provided for themselves, instead of it being considered theft if it were to come from any other address. The addresses that aren't included in this "puzzle" however, belong to individuals that aren't participating in any of this... So obviously that's not an ethical option, we get that. But here, here is different. The only thing keeping these addresses from being swept is the fact there remains the potential for the "reward" to be ripped out from under you... So, as I said, it's now been 4 days... And I still can't come up with a safe way to get back to the mother fucking car...

in short, you have puzzle 66 key, and afraid to create tx ?

Is JLP's Kangaroo program used for puzzle 130, which is original and published on github? Yes or no ?

Some said you can use it because the range width is 125 bits. Some have said that the original version of JLP has 130 puzzles and you cannot use it for more comprehensive puzzles.

Which one is right ?


What I'm talking about is the 130 bit range width, that is, if there is more than a 125 bit gap between the start and end, does the program work?

hi... new here. apologies for entering the gates with suspicions but merely curious what these means, if anything important. I have followed along for a bit now and recognize many geniuses in here that know more than I in this realm.. so I understand the first response will be "If you dont trust it, just dont use it" and the second will be "NEVER use any exe you didnt compile"... Got it.

Now, I uploaded brichard19's cuBitcrack.exe into this site virustotal.com and also Iceland2k14's close source file from his bsgs 'ice_secp256k1.dll'... is it normal to have 'Contacted IP traffic' for these types of things and also are these Execution Parents actually part of the dll file? Alas, BSGS Cuda by Etasyon. My PC through up every red flag and refused for me to allow it to be on my machine.. virustotal showing IP Traffic of some sort...

They are false positives. If you are using Windows just block their ability to send and receive to and from the internet they should still work, most of the anti-viruses will give some kind of warning on mining software even though these are not considered mining software. I have been using each on and off for years with no issues

If you dont trust it, just dont use it. NEVER use any exe you didnt compile

Better yet:
- review the source code line by line, if anything seems suspicious or don't understand it, it's likely a threat on so many levels;
- review the compiler, check all SHA signatures for all downloaded and installed packages (use https to get sigs from authors, verify certificates, compare against results on another computer which you never touched)
- dump Windows. You may have viruses already which you never knew about, or ever will.
- clear CMOS / flash UEFI or BIOS and make sure secure boot is on and  that you never signed insecure kernel modules to load at boot time

Lastly:
- make sure you protect against RF attacks (keystrokes and such can travel a long way in the EM field). Use a mechanical keyboard and a CRT monitor (not a digital display, pixels can be trapped with a correctly tuned analog-to-digital converter and some decoding software)
- for maximal anti-virus protection you need to also disconnect from the internet, run all software on VMs.

Compile everything from scratch.

Today it found it in 46 seconds. It's probably possible to do this in 1 second or much faster than 46 seconds. If somebody knows exactly how please let me know.

Can anyone please be so kind and explain to me what it means that some public keys from this puzzle (like task 130 but not task 66 for example) have been found which makes kangaroo and keyhunt with bsgs mode possible?

I thought we know public addresses as they hold the reward and the task is to find the suitable public key from a reduced key range. So what does it mean that the public key for task 130 is known and is 03633cbe3ec02b9401c5effa144c5b4d22f87940259634858fc7e59b1c09937852? I literally don't understand this.

Thank you

There are private keys , public keys and addresses. These are three different things.

You can use BSGS or Kangaroo modes only on public keys but not on addresses.

The known public keys in this whole challenge were intentionally released by it's creator.

If you see an outgoing transactions in given address history you can easily check it's public key and try the BSGS or Kangaroo modes.

When you have just address without any outgoing transactions your only method is to blindly guessing private keys in hope you will find one which corresponds to address.

Currently finding 66bit privkey without knows public key can be considered as hard as finding 130bit privkey with public key known.
