##
For the Jet image I'm also using F14 an now I think y should have added M for Mig
##

if the plane picture is representing a Mig, or F14,... then it makes the whole puzzle a bad design (shit puzzle) because the puzzle should have only one solution and it should have enough clues so that you can find that only one solution.
here there is only a picture of a place that looks like Fighter places which are called Jets and all those other answers are types of Jets and unless there is clue pointing to the picture being F## or Mig there is no reason for choosing a non-obvious answer.

same goes for the rest.

 It is evident there are mistakes since he found nothing.  The whole point of this thread was to share your ideas and solutions.  So where do you think the mistakes lie?

i will share my variations in a while. but i am sure the problem is with upper/lower case.

##
how long did it actually take you to get through all those possibilities? besides that i think there are a lot of mistakes so it wont be possible to find it out

about an hour, my CPU is super old haha. honestly i am surprised that it only took an hour to go through 149 Million
mouse over the time i posted the previous comment it shows the edit time

 Firstly, it's not a shit puzzle; it's challenging.  I don't share your concern with respect to capital/miniscule letters.  If the clue represents a proper noun, then the letter must be capitalized.  The word jet should not be capitalized whereas Steve Jobs requires capital letters. Perhaps there might be some ambiguity with Kevlar but the occaisional pair to test isn't going to make it impossible.  We need to solve the clues for the letters they represent; not knowing those results in 58 possibilities for the character and that is the largest determination of difficulty in solving the puzzle.
 One thing that I find frustrating is that even though I have tried half a billion possibilities which failed to result in a valid key, I am unable to rule out any possibilities.

##Firstly, it's not a shit puzzle; it's challenging.##

there is a big difference between these two.
here is where i am at, lets work out the possibilities.

3) either P or 3
7) have no clue: 58 char
12) highly doubt it is anything other than puzzle
15) radiology or x-ray: R/X
16) i think it is August Schleicher so A but not sure
17) radar or sonar: R / S
18) have no clue: 58 char
30) E, V or C
35) it must be Z but to be sure: 58 char
36&54) can anybody explain how you convert 36 to 24 and 54 to 36 as you said before "converted from hex" i don't know hot this is done.
42) this is definitely not a balloon because of the arrow hear. now get this, i think this is a flash game that i can not remember the name but it is like this: in a 2d page you are a guy standing with your back to camera and shooting an arrow like the picture to the top and there is a big ball (circle) bouncing around when the arrow hits the ball it splits the ball to two different balls and so on until you destroy all the small balls. i hope someone can remember the name.
it is a name like ball buster, bubble breaker (all starting with b) : B
48) i go with LAMP: M (nothing else fits)
upper and lower case:
working on it.

Awesome!  Thanks for sharing.
I can't complain about many of your solutions but I strongly disagree with
 #16.  This must be Linus Yale Jr as he Yale created one of the first lock sets that used a pin and tumbler design.
Really like your idea for
 #48 lamp.  I hadn't thought of that.  As far as
 #35, I think Pfizer and Viagra are possibilities but not Z (Z seems too obvious).

As for hex conversion,

here a number is represented in base 10

10ⁿ10^n-110^n-2...10^n-(n-1)10⁰

10⁰=1 (ones)
10¹=10 (tens)
10²=100 (hundreds)
10³=1000 (thousands)
10⁴=10000 (ten thousands)

and a number represented in base 16 looks similar

16ⁿ16^n-116^n-2...16^n-(n-1)16⁰

 To convert to hex, divide by 16ⁿ where n is a value that will give you a number not greater than the number being converted but will not result in a number greater than 16 when divided.  Do the same with the remainder until you have a number less than 16 which will represent the final digit.

numbers greater than 9 are represented as the letters A through F.

ie convert 20,000 decimal to hex

first division?
16⁰=1 (too small)
16¹=16 (too small)
16²=256 (too small)
16³=4096 (maybe) <--- use this one
16⁴=65535 (too large)

20,000/16³=4 remainder 3616
3616/16²=14 remainder 32
32/16¹=2 remainder 0
0/16⁰=0

so,
the 4^th digit from the right is 4
the 3^rd digit from the right is E (E represents 14)
the 2^nd digit from the right is 2
the 1^st digit from the right is 0

20,000 dec = 4E20 hex

Hope that explains it.

thanks for the explanation.
so here is my updated code with 1,937,664 keys and nothing is right:
https://gist.github.com/Coding-Enthusiast/feeb2200b6201c94fec1bd5b704a2b67
(i will update this in the future if i find a different answer)

maybe others see what i don't see!

 That's nicely laid out.  I just finished night shift so I'm a little tired but I can contribute a few revisions.  First of all, you should only put capitals on proper nouns.

Code:

  

 4 +theKey[3] = new PKeyChar(new char[] { '3', 'p' });  #the symbol is of the miniscule Greek letter pi not Pi
 5 +theKey[4] = new PKeyChar('A');  # Atari is the name of a company and must have a capital
 6 +theKey[5] = new PKeyChar('p');  #parachute is not a proper noun
 7 +theKey[6] = new PKeyChar('j');  # jet is not a proper noun 
 8 +theKey[7] = new PKeyChar('w'); # almost certainly this is a wing from the previous image
 
 10 +theKey[9] = new PKeyChar(new char[] { 'Y', 'y' });# The term yo-yo was deemed generic in the U.S. in 1965 maybe try both capital and miniscule for this
 
 12 +theKey[11] = new PKeyChar('i');  # an iron is not a proper noun
  
 16 +theKey[15] = new PKeyChar(new char[] { 'X', 'R', 'k', 'p', 'r', 'x' }); #try the minuscule for X and R as well as k for knee, and p for patella

 18 +theKey[17] = new PKeyChar(new char[] { 'R', 'S', 'r', 's' }); #sonar and radar can also be used without capitals  

 21 +theKey[20] = new PKeyChar('N'); # Nobel was a persons name (proper noun)

 22 +theKey[21] = new PKeyChar(new char[] { 'i', 'h', 's' });  #no capitals and added h for hockey skate
 23 +theKey[22] = new PKeyChar('X'); # probably capital
 24 +theKey[23] = new PKeyChar('Y'); # which means this is also capital
 25 +theKey[24] = new PKeyChar('i');  # igloo is not a proper noun
 26 +theKey[25] = new PKeyChar('f');  # film is not a proper noun
 27 +theKey[26] = new PKeyChar('G'); # Galileo is a proper noun 

 29 +theKey[28] = new PKeyChar(The58Char.ToCharArray()); # I think this might be a wildcard so let's try all
  
 39 +theKey[38] = new PKeyChar(new char[] { 'W', 'w'});  #try both
 40 +theKey[39] = new PKeyChar('W', '8');  #this style was introduced with windows 8 
   
 43 +theKey[42] = new PKeyChar('b'); #balloon is not a proper noun (perhaps try all too)
 
  
 46 +theKey[45] = new PKeyChar('E');  #Etch-a-Sketch needs a capital

 48 +theKey[47] = new PKeyChar('X');  # based on the clue layout, I'm now convinced this represents the element Xenon
 49 +theKey[48] = new PKeyChar('m'); #if it truly stands for lamp, use small letter (do you have capacity to make this a wildcard?) 
 50 +theKey[49] = new PKeyChar('T');  # Tesla is the name of a company (and a family) it needs a capital
 51 +theKey[50] = new PKeyChar('m'); # mouse is a generic term so use the small letter

 Wish I could do more but I'm getting ready to go on a trip and I wont be able to take my computer with me ;(
Good luck!
 

[dalek]

Code:

43 +theKey[42] = new PKeyChar('b'); #balloon is not a proper noun (perhaps try all too)

A balloon could also mean 'air' or 'helium'.

Challenging task..but good luck to the winner..wish a happy winning..

I think you shouldn't overthink the answers too much. that picture can be a sperm entering the egg

there was a suggestion about those two number only pictures (36 and 54) and someone said these are from Periodic table which I think is like overthinking but since I don't see the suggestions here I though I mention them: Kr and Xe

I think OP or whoever the creator is should give more hints because it seems unsolvable so far.

quite challenging? i watch people trying to crack it and i try to solve it myself but it is nearly impossible to do that, also there is a lower/upper case problem

[DOGE12321]

I can solve the problem of the video being too fast. This website has all of the images in the Youtube video in an ordered format. http://www.jangodfrey.com/illustration/guess-my-bitcoin/guess-my-bitcoin.php.

So far what I think the code is this: (Don't completely rely on me, I am not sure of it)

Are you serious? Why do you always post shit? The private key isn't 10 letters. Please, post somewhere else if you don't understand.

[HaXX0R1337]

Hey guys! I just found this puzzle on Twitter but i can't decipher it.

The puzzle is not mine but i want to see if we can share the clues!

In advance i ley you know that the private key starts with 5J..

Dont forget to post the priv key if you claim the prize!
 
Im open to exchange clues x clues so PM me!

Yeah its very cool man, but as I know this puzzle is very difficult because there are pictures that have two meanings and the hardest thing is the use of capital letters. Moreover, we also do not know if this address is also owned by the owner of the puzzle or not, and it must be proven hehe. Thanks anyway

thank you for the update.
and this proved my suspicious, i am sure this puzzle can have many other errors and not so good clues because we all have been stuck at so many things with so many possible clues.
i hope the creator gives more clues or it will take a year and this has not yet been solved.
