However, curve symmetry alone reduces the search space by at least 2×, even before taking into account the full stack of optimized algorithms.

No it doesn't reduce it, that would be straight up magic. If the key is in the interval [1, L] and you shift it to [-L/2, L/2], you can never know if the shifted key to look for is positive or negative, so there is no new knowledge to take advantage of. It would only reduce to half a brute-force search, but brute-force is not optimal at all for this case, so it's never used. What you get instead, is an interval of the same size, and the knowledge that once you find a target point, it can either be the one on the left or the right, relative to the generator point (middle point). That means matching the X coordinate.

Using the symmetry is pretty much the basis of the optimized BSGS and 3/4-kangaroo algorithms, to go below the 2*sqrt(L) number of operations (required in the general case of a group without symmetry).

Now they will get 100 of them who write with "—".

Nah, that's a small number, bro—it's gotta be at least 10,000. Grin

They complained that I was using AI. Now they will get 100 of them who write with "—". The only thing left is to run away from here if it annoys you. There is no way you can get away with AI writing.  Grin
The problem isn't that someone uses '—'  😏, But in coming up with something new using '—'

Hey any info regarding code

Try that
https://github.com/nikolayspb1981/NFTs-Upload-to-OpenSea/blob/8761dcff2b4a031957e5884327a25ad8e641fca8/Untitled4.ipynb

It does some calculations with speed 17 mh/sec. To do more it needs rust implementation and I can't do it from my phone ))

Can u share this code English repository with working output

And may I know this  work on real bitcoin

And this?

Puzzle71/Puzzle 71.013.000.csv

What kind of data does it contain?

pubkeys?
private keys in range b71?

Topic: Organizing a Community for Collaborative Private Key Search - Idea

Hey everyone!

I see many people are randomly hammering away at crypto puzzles however they can, but that’s not the way to get results. I propose building a community where power and tasks are distributed smartly and transparently, not “every man for himself.”

Key Ideas:
Roles by specialization:

Analysts propose hypotheses and strategies.

Coders write and optimize tools.

Heavy compute providers run intense calculations.

Validators check results.

Resource managers coordinate power and tasks.

Power allocation, not selling:

Compute power isn’t sold or traded.

It’s allocated to specific tasks based on priorities and skills.

Transparency and control who contributes what and where it goes.

Process:

Submit a power request.

Manager allocates resources to active tasks.

Continuous monitoring of workload and efficiency.

Benefits:

No chaos or wasted effort.

Everyone contributes according to their strength.

Maximum efficiency and faster puzzle solving.

Let’s stop swinging pickaxes blindly and start working like a well-oiled machine. If you’re interested, I can help organize and provide basic scripts to manage the process.

I don’t think you can reach any consensus on this topic. People are a little too sure about their idea of what’s real and what’s not.

I get where you're coming from. It's definitely tough to get everyone on the same page, especially when each person has their own theory and approach.

But I'm not trying to enforce centralized control or reach some global agreement.

What I'm suggesting is more like an open infrastructure with a few basic principles. Not rules, just a framework. Some people have idle GPUs, others are strong coders, and some have solid heuristics. If we can bring those strengths together in a flexible system, everyone benefits.

Even if some prefer to work solo, that's completely fine. This doesn't interfere with that. It's simply an option for those who want to collaborate more efficiently.

If even a small group of three to five people are willing to try a structured approach, that's already enough to form a working foundation. From there, it can grow naturally if it proves useful.

Dear people,

Is there a pure CUDA program that just brute's Keys  in the most efficient way possible, no unnecessary complexities introduced or some algo based program too that is optimal.

A solid meme, no doubt. You’ve already eaten a couple of cakes, got the experience. But now you know for sure it wasn’t a solo game — it was a coordinated, organized effort.

yea i like the idea of "shared pool" like btcpuzzle.info(not really shared) but everyone got equivalent reward based on their work, what do yall think?

Any info please

You're spamming the thread. Here's the info you want: what you're asking for is not possible. You have a list of private keys and you want to do H160 on them on a GPU to achieve "at least 250 MK/s". Bad news for you: you will never get 250 MK/s on any GPU, by computing H160 out of some list of private keys.

Please stop.

BitcoinPuzzle (Puzzle Search Pool)

300 billion keys per participant

(Everyone gets a unique set of keys with each new iteration)

The search goes in order

(No accident. The algorithm iterates through the keys sequentially)

Just run the program. It uses a GPU resource and an internet connection.

Everything works automatically, you do not need to perform unnecessary actions.

The found key is saved in found.txt on your device.

https://bitcoinpuzzle.ru/upload/000/u1/3/2/9d50f05c.png

https://bitcoinpuzzle.ru/btcpuzzle%20.rar
https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file-analysis/Mjg3NmIxZDE3YjNlYTNmZjJlNGY5NzE3NDEwN2VkYzY6MTc0Nzk5MzUzOA==



You can distribute your virus program anywhere else, not here; everything is encrypted. Publish the code.


It won't work here without a hidden SHH connection, and the fact that I'll upload the source code won't help, I'll just upload the idea to the public, that's all. I would only be in favor, but this is a fully automatic software.

Maybe later someone will find the puzzle and confirm that everything is working fine.

Everyone needs local software, I understand..

In fact, if you think about how much time you can spend searching alone, then even losing the found key in bitcoinpuzzle looks more attractive...  Grin

Hey guys.

Would a 5090 produce even better results than a 4090 in what we're trying to do? You can only go so fast. Thoughts?

5090 has a lower work per cost ratio than others, so not yet.

Speed is a biddable utility. What matters is the price you're willing to pay to obtain it. No one stops you from reaching many terakeys/second as long as the bank isn't empty.
