[SPENT] Free 2.50 BTC (if you can spend it) (again)

[Matt Corallo]

I tweaked the second clue that comes from the 1337 action, if you know how to get to it, check it out again.

[Matt Corallo]

Sent another 1 to the address, bringing the total up to 2.50 BTC for free if you win.
Thats the last I'm gonna add, and I'll be posting a clue that should give a huge bump to people who are ahead, and possibly get them finished in around 20 hours, so might want to get ahead now.

ROT13 does indeed suck for encryption.

ROT13 does indeed suck for encryption.

We have a winner, I'll post the solution when the transaction confirms.

[Matt Corallo]

Transaction confirmed, here is the solution:

netcat (or telnet) to dnsseedns.bluematt.me on port 1337, you'll get
"All you should need for this one is my text and you should be able to get some bitcoins4u.jpg".
Now dig dnsseed.bluematt.me txt to get it's text "Db9qb2Mr46qWtV3DQisa30Zagjpn28".
You'll find bitcoins4u.jpg at http://bitcoin.bluematt.me/icons/bitcoins4u.jpg.
Now the part that stopped most people:
You need to use steghide to extract the solution file from the image (using the password Db9qb2Mr46qWtV3DQisa30Zagjpn28) and you'll get what looks like a private key:
"Damn, guess my encryption sucked, oh well here are your free bitcoins:

Well, the "encryption" did suck, it was ROT13, so ROT13 it again and import the key into bitcoin with sipa's showwallet branch and spend the bitcoins (of course its too late now).

Ha. Once again I was busy doing something else at the time.

You've had like 2 days...

I never though about ROT13. I was driving myself crazy trying to make that private key work.

Well it did say the encryption sucked .
