Hi,

Sat0shiSecret has send me the private key and the answer.

I can confirm the Priv. Key is fitting to the address 1MystSt2kbAutJhuyA68STVJ5DKZQCq8zX and that all Parts revealed so far (see here) are fitting to the private key.

Also, may I suggest that you add all parts already posted in the other Board, if you are running this on multiple boards?

As the Key will be revealed step by step, there is no way for me to prof who will have gotten the treasure and that everything was fair if the Coins just disappear at some point.

All previous versions of currency will no longer be supported as of this update

You're right. I will expand the FAQ with the concerns of the german users tomorrow.

to all User:

Yes, the Pot may disappear at some point. But only if nobody cracks the puzzle. In this case, there need to be 15 YES-Answers. That equals 45 digits (of 51) of the private key. With only 6 digits missing, crackers need few hours. But 9 digits are impossible.

And 15-Yes answers is a lot. You can easily limit the amount of solutions with only one question.

Hi pand,

you can follow the progress on the blockchain.info. Every out-going transaction is an answer: https://blockchain.info/address/1MystSt2kbAutJhuyA68STVJ5DKZQCq8zX

As you see, there are no participants.
I am thinking of reducing the costs per question.  In that case, the pot will be smaller but hopefully more participants. I am also thinking about a free "promo puzzle" with a little amount of BTC to win.

On weekend I have time to reconsider the gameplay. Stay tuned!

Interesting puzzle, will be fun to watch the progress.

It would also be nice if the transaction fees were eliminated from the game, but that may be difficult to achieve.

I think the puzzle idea is great, you have only to reduce the cost (also you can make a proper answer cost more than a generic question)

Thank you.
Yes, I also realized that the costs are too high. But this puzzle will continue as it is.

The next "open-puzzle" will be a little bit different. At the moment I'm looking for qualified user to join a "closed-puzzle" with new rules. I hope it would be better.

Hi guys!

This puzzle keeps popping up in my mind all morning...
I think i have a clear idea on what it is
Let we verify whether you can actually buy this "thing" on Amazon first
and MAY BE i will have a go later on
(If I get this wrong, stakes will be higher for everyone, so will be careful)

Undecided

Hi medUSA,

I already answered the question. You can definitively buy it on Amazon.   
You can follow every question/answer at: https://blockchain.info/address/1MystSt2kbAutJhuyA68STVJ5DKZQCq8zX. Every out-going-transaction is a answer Smiley.


@all

Update:
I need more qualified user, so i decided to set up a free puzzle again (0.025 BTC). Like this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=368803.0
This time every member (with a regestration before october 2013) can participate. Except user: medUSA, phantastisch and akka. The winner gets the pot.

I think it will start tomorrow, stay tuned!

Answer: No, Private Key: 5KZ________________ , Next Question: 0.000675

An air-conditioner is a nice suggestion though.

Quote from: Sat0shiSecret
"Satoshi and quite a few people use it, to feel comfortable all day long. What is it?"

Oh well, too bad, I thought my guess fits nicely with the clue Embarrassed
The difficult part of puzzle is to fit the phrase "all day long"

I took a different direction this time...
Instead of something that makes you comfortable with it
this is something that makes you uncomfortable without it
