I don't quite see if anyone actually guessed 41, so I suppose I will. It was spoken about and I wonder if that's the simple link back to the flip side.

It does give a nice round number of 180 for the middle 9 squares but other than that, I'm not sure what else is special about it.

Nope. Any solution that doesn't require every square will definitely not work.

[iQCash]

Is it POHW (Proof of human work)? The last two columns have P (Pi) O (omega) H (h) W (y-2)...

I like that - but it is not correct.

There's a few key posts that you'll need to scan through in the thread if you don't wish to redo all the decoding analysis done so far. But...if you're up for the challenge and want to test yourself on the puzzle without hints, go for it.

Okay time for bed but maybe one more shot.

If we place 57 in the centre square then both the middle 9 squares and all 21 squares sum up to squared numbers, 196 (14) and 324 (18).

I just wonder if squares might be something we need to look at.

Another thing I'm looking at is if the fact the words iQCash Cryptocurrency shows up 5 times on the other side of the [Suspicious link removed]d luck with that friends!

No luck I'm afraid.

He said that we could use the front to verify. So probably its a prime number.

Hmmm....

[cryptoneal]

New day, new oppertunities.

If I substract 107 (currency) from 160 (IQCASHCRYPTO) it leaves us 53.
Use front of coin to check if its prime. It is.

So my answer is 53

probably to easy....

That's not the answer, but the answer is just as easy.

There's no reason it must be a prime either.

I've got tunnelvision.

Because you said 'It's not necessary to figure out the puzzle, but it can be used to confirm the solution.'
Thats why I'm trying probably to hard on primes....

Ok so maybe we need to use the prime numbers in a different way.

Extract the total of the prime numbers (84) from the total of the non prime numbers (183). This leaves us with the easy answer of 99

Which is also the atomic number of Einsteinium

Ha! Tunnelvision alright.

If it helps, I never said it was the primes that would help confirm the final step, just 'something' on the other side. That may or may not be the primes. Better to solve the puzzle first, then turn it over to check.

That's right. To prime or not to prime.... So back to the drawing board!

Is the answer a "Troll face" ?  


Or maybe simple the iQ symbol in the middle

[cryptoneal]

New approach.

On the coin next to the text 'IQ Cash cryptocurrency' there is a symbol made from 4 little blocks.
If I use these blocks in the puzzle around the questionmark, I find the numbers: 19 + 23+ 18 + 1. This makes a total of 61.

The answer is 61
When I flip the coin, you can see the number 61 right beneath the four little blocks to confirm the solution.

Too bad. Without a proper hint I'm out of ideas

really?!?!?!?

[cjrst8]

is the answer i for imaginary number (the square root of -1)?
