I've got breaking news:

This puzzle isn't meant as a "let's have some fun at home" exercise.

It's a statement on Bitcoin's underlying security, not a raffle or "what's the best software that I never wrote" competition.

And anyone is free to share, or not share anything, troll, or not troll, use bots or not use bots, etc. None of those things really helps with anything though, except maybe showing the diversity of real human nature. We have here actual math fascists, drug heads, delusional "experts", AI-hallucinated breakthroughs, crooks, self-called hackers, and a lot more... as if that's what the puzzles are about.

Dude, which group do you classify yourself in here? A puzzle — a TED speaker on steroids, or what?  Tongue

I'm the casino's Blackjack dealer - informing you that the Gambler's Fallacy isn't a made-up hoax, no matter what everyone wants you to believe. Too bad this is a legal obligation in Las Vegas, but a no-mans-land conspiracy theory, totally refused as acceptable when it comes to addiction to these puzzles.

And I said several times already that I'm not even bothering to solve address puzzles, nor 135. It's a losing bet, there are much other better things to do in life.

I don’t know what he’s doing here. Maybe he’s trying to earn merit? I think there’s a better way to approach some other topics. He’s not convincing here at all—in fact, he seems even less natural.  Embarrassed

This asshole proved that you can do sequential EC points iteration 2x times faster than JLP's code (which is used in almost 100% of all other tools). No one cares.

This asshole presented a better 3-Kangaroo variation months before RCKangaroo, which no one bothered to put in practice, however a few ideas went straight into RetiredCoder's "updated version" for matching Wild-Wild collisions to solve the key. I guess, no one cares, unless they are fed with code as well. And preferably to compile on Windows.

What can I say guys. I still have a few aces down my sleeve, which I will play totally elsewhere. Meanwhile, good luck with all your Python and C++ scripts, see you in a couple of years.

The guy systematically answers with ChatGPT, only ChatGPT always puts "—" between words like at all—in fact, instead of a simple hyphen. Nobody used that before. So it's pretty easy to recognize the intruders and it's quite sad that more and more people don't think for themselves anymore, as if they were lobotomized. And it's not just Akito here... So if you trust someone who systematically asks ChatGPT to answer for him, good luck with your lucidity ^^

I don’t mind chatGPT as long as the content is correct.
Most people here using chatGPT seem to have a hard time using it, from what I can see of the quality of answers.

Also, I don’t need to trust anyone. Just pointing to the fact that what he says is correct. Has nothing to do with me trusting the guy or not.

Many use Chat Gpt to fix grammar or simplify sentences so everyone can understand. Just because something looks like it's formatted by ChatGPT doesn't mean it was fully written by AI.

I'm humbly new (not to mention woefully ignorant) to all of this but .... I'd rather listen to a correct asshole than an incorrect saint.

Who really cares about sequential EC points iterations without any other logic attached to it like converting to hex representation and checking for bloomfilter hit or whatever.
Guess that way 2x times faster will be the same as JLP  code.

Well, ‘cause he never actually gave any full code or full logic for real. It’s all just conceptual, theoretical stuff he’s talkin’ about. Nothin’ tangible. Dude’s basically a conceptual artist, honestly.  Tongue

I think you guys are speaking about totally different users and confusing who's who. What hyphens are you dreaming about?...

Also I thought better speeds of a subsystem can only help the system overall. My bad.

I also totally forgot that something that doesn't need hashing, like BSGS or kangaroo, should be compared with something that inevitably slows down the pipeline... my bad again - stick to JLP's code I guess. Cheesy

Take care everyone.

100% agree. kTimesG just a guy who likes to do a lot of technical talking. From github repositories I saw a lot of interesting code and concepts (NoMachine1,  iceland2k14, Dookoo2, RetiredC just to name a few). From kTimesG repository there is nothing to see really. AI also says that bitcoins libsecp256k1 is the fastest solution available. I guess if you strip off some constant-time code first.
The most funny in thing is that such great a programmer as kTimesG (even RetiredC compared to him as he said not such good) could not came up with his own fastest of all secp256k1 library. If he will publish such library i will be the first one to use it in my projects.
