Hey,
just made a video about bitcoin puzzle and especially about puzzle 67 and 68
hope you will like it

https://youtu.be/z4QimEZxmqI



That was actually pretty cool. The quote from the saatoshi_rising @ 2:26 was bit mangled, however.
Nonetheless, bravo!

Thank you !
yeah wanted to talk about the creator of the puzzle but was the only message about it.

Does the hash narrow the range?

Hashing in Bitcoin doesn’t shrink the real search space of the private key. It just compresses data, which naturally causes collisions. You start with 256 bits → hash → 256 bits → hash → 160 bits. Collisions at the 160-bit stage are normal and expected.

Thanks for catching that typo, fixed "Towerds" to "Towards" in my bio Smiley
No worries about the link at all, totally get the caution.

I’ve already scanned millions of PVK suffix, using completely random Python/C++ generation.
Now I’ve opened the exact same tool to the public so anyone can drop in their own hand-picked 8 hex characters.
Just a simple experiment: let’s see how much difference there really is between pure machine randomness and a human going “yeah this one feels lucky”, Cheesy
And whether people end up clustering in the same spots.

Basically turning the unsolved Puzzle 71 into a behavioral crypto experiment and Fun.

Anyway tool is live now...

Hello everyone!

For those looking for puzzles 71, 72, 73, etc., I have finally completed the development of a project that can unite us all in an honest search.
An honest pool with an open API.

The puzzle range is divided into 67,108,864 parts, each part being 2^44.
It uses open-source software: https://github.com/FixedPaul/VanitySearch-Bitcrack. Its source code is unmodified; you can download it directly from its repository and use it.

All automation and server interaction are handled by a Python script. In general, I have described everything in more detail on Git: https://github.com/homlol/honestpool.

Website: https://honestpool.ru 
GIT: https://github.com/homlol/honestpool 
API: https://github.com/homlol/honestpool?tab=readme-ov-file#api 
TG Group: @homlol_pool 

Good luck to everyone

I have been playing around EC math for some time that i don't remember. But may be I am crazy or lost my analytical acuman or whatever you call it you are free to do so. I have reached a juncture that I have two scalar values and two points one of the point being puzzle public key point. Here is explanation.

Scalar_S1
Scalar_S2

Mataphor_Point_P1
Puzzle_Point_P2


S1*P1= P3
S2*P3= P2

It also works either way as well.
S2*P1= P4
S1*P4= P2

Now either this is a step towards something or may be I lost my energy to call it something anyhow.

S1*P1= P3
S2*P3= P2

Why so many words for "I have the private key"?

Sweep the puzzle or end the trolling, these are pretty much your two options.

Or, if you don't have P1's scalar, then you can simply generate whatever P1 you want out of P2, G, S1 and S2, to simply transfer the ECDLP(P2) to a different point.

of coz. its simple math.
>> S2*P1= P4
>> S1*P4= P2
so, S2*S1*P1=P2.

>> S1*P1= P3
>> S2*P3= P2
so, S2*S1*P1 = P2

and all other P's well.

First of all thank you for your reply. Secondly, I am not trolling anyone here neither I have the private key of puzzle 134. I don't know whether you've said it due to mathematical juncture that I posted or for the sake of having a laugh on it. But I am serious here. I don't have kP and I don't understood your suggestion either how to manipulate this in our favor.

There's nothing to manipulate that helps with anything, you can choose whatever scalars S1 and S2 (and S3 and S4 up to whatever), and simply compute inv(S1*S2*...) * P2 to get a P1. This works for all the points on the curve. So, zero useful extra information to help you retrieve the unknown scalar (which needs to be relative to the generator, not to what is basically one and the same point). It's not like you have some sort of solvable system of independent equations there, if they are derivable one from another.
