Bitcoin puzzle transaction ~32 BTC prize to who solves it

[Niekko]

From my perspective and the searching on the old puzzles, the distribution is based on a specific pattern. And from what i see where is the distribution high, for example over 15 prefixes in a range 44, there are big chances to find the remaining G. On old puzzles there is a little numbers 1-2 for spcific prefixes that are found on specific keys and is progressing with each puzzle. If anyone checked after puzzle 60 will see what i am saying.

the MSB byte pattern is choose hand-on from the creator for adjust the range.

No mathematical function has been found that generates a sequence of known keys.
No recurrent relationship was found between neighboring keys.
No signs of a simple PRNG or a known generator were found.
No statistically significant internal structure was found to predict the following keys.
No signs of encoding of physical quantities, physical objects, or known physical laws were found.
No evidence of correspondence to models of quantum mechanics, fields, waves, or other physical systems was found.
No signs were found that the keys are states of any known dynamic system.
No evidence has been found for analogies with game theory (including chess) that would allow the recovery of unknown keys.
No signs of musical, geometric, symmetrical, or other compositional structure suitable for sequence prediction were found.
No key representation was found that would give an advantage when searching for the next unknown keys.

After all this, there is only one explanation that fully agrees with the author's words.:

"There is no pattern. These are just consecutive keys from a deterministic wallet (disguised by leading digits 000...0001 to give the desired difficulty). It is simply a crude benchmark of the community's cracking strength."

If you take these words literally, then the Puzzle is not a mathematical puzzle, it does not encode a hidden structure and does not require searching for a special model. This is an open experiment to measure the community's ability to find private keys.

Let me to dissagree you. Everybody is trusting someone, but you forget that there should be 1 people in 6 billions that can solve this issue in different method.
This is that nobody understand: everything has a solution. if you believe someone that say NO, in that moment you refuse all other posibilities without searching....
Why nobody created something similar to google maps until now to see the BTC each address on a MAP? Think about google maps coordonates of the globe and is the same thing...
The solution of puzzle 71 will not be found with traditional formulas of Bernoulli or Gaus...also the decoding of BTC address is a complex formula that soon will be found. I do not say that i do that, but very soon someone will move a dormand wale by this formula.

[SRG02289]

If a user is asking for a simple information, why you give more that he asked? At least if you give the private key, give also the address...he needs now to scan again and again wasting power and money....sometimes is a joke for everyone...

There is only 2 addresses with form 1PWo3JeB9jrG for puzzle 71. If the first one is on 4, the second one should be on 60-68.

There are only 2 addresses betweeen puzzle 71's gap 0x400..0x7fff. One of the is solution and another one is 0x4da0aa7f285f61b1c5 = 1PWo3JeB9jrGMLiH83vD775NRqHZMR2hHB.

Other 2 addresses(1PWo3JeB9jrGLDTmsp45h1pDXXtb7zisQH - 1PWo3JeB9jrGFsveoYdzAukjcwp645X7Zx) aren't between the gap 0x400..0x7fff.

I sent some dust on them. We'll see about the time...

I have found similar things, after studying the BTC Genesis block before sha256 is added is the most useful insight I found so far. I have invented novel maths to try solve all 160-256 puzzles, I have been designing a btc live block miner now since the puzzles look like a distraction

[zahid888]

Very interesting the Vanitysearch from Jean Luc. I added a new feature to check anywhere in the BTC address

 These features were available right from the start when vanitygen or vanitysearch was introduced.
 using hash160 would be more preferable over base58. like below :

Code:

match.exe --address 1PWo3JeB9jrGwfHDNpdGK54CRas7fsVzXU --matching 16 --range 400000000000000000:40000000ffffffffff --grid 512,512 --deterministic

But remember, all of these are absurd.

This is just random data. This program is doing exactly what vanity is doing...generate and after that make a filter...Now depends where you want to make the filter on GPU or CPU for accuracy.
Vanity is doing on GPU  on prefix search, but you can implement also the suffix filter or even hash160 filter as you want.
I have now based on hash160 20 characters matching and on BTC address something similar, but is not helping me with anything...just random data that is matching.

Your fruit is not ripe enough, I leave the garden. As is has been sprayed with pesticide by its owner. I now return back to the current garden. With my willing prize in hand. No reason for me to return. Thank you, from aotearoa.

I strongly doubt that other than a few highly skilled coders being a member of this forum any one else know or even care about this.

If you want a global effort with all hands on, spend 100BTC to advertise first, and then let go of 10 K BTC by distributing them over several addresses.  Let the unaware geniuses of coding and math rush to the place and start a brain storm on how to find short cuts.

Anyways, working on puzzles above 70 is a total waste of time, ok maybe not 70 but above 75.

No mathematical function has been found that generates a sequence of known keys.
No recurrent relationship was found between neighboring keys.
No signs of a simple PRNG or a known generator were found.
No statistically significant internal structure was found to predict the following keys.
No signs of encoding of physical quantities, physical objects, or known physical laws were found.
No evidence of correspondence to models of quantum mechanics, fields, waves, or other physical systems was found.
No signs were found that the keys are states of any known dynamic system.
No evidence has been found for analogies with game theory (including chess) that would allow the recovery of unknown keys.
No signs of musical, geometric, symmetrical, or other compositional structure suitable for sequence prediction were found.
No key representation was found that would give an advantage when searching for the next unknown keys.

You've got a big schedule of "no" but is it enough?
So I add some "no" in my little list so as never to forget.

No vulnerability Elliptic Curve - not even up for discussion.
No algorithm inventing to help to fracture this conundrum.
No secret that there is not a cyclic process - nothing but chance.
No hidden pattern in this challenge.
No playing some sort of game - no need to decide but it is good to improve memory.

On one day a couple years ago I started looking the solution of this puzzle.
How much it will be in the next - three years? or this Fall? more? and now it's like pain to pack all my life in hurry.
Well-nevermind.
Until we find.
And the further I search - I think it is pointless to count the grains of sand in the sand.

But it's interesting to read the new capabilities of people and learn more that have.
As said user "eo_aa6b_ux" -
sorry, I don't remember what page was it -  "As some day it may hapen that answers must be found.
May be in one standart day. But it's doesn't matter who offer that decision to community. Don't miss that day. I really wished to you won your main purpose and secondary goals".

And as said user "by_path_ca_for5tune"
"Let me spill the tea for you - it was made with glue and don't ran so fast because you can stumble and what - of course all of us taunt you. Time goes" - we can believe that it being some nice joke but he's good human. 

PS. I'd like to have that unnamed exp. AI with "super power" that escaped - to solve this puzzle.
Nevermind. Take care.
