Obviously she isn't him, but

8 2 3 9 1 6 11 4 14 13 12 15 5 10 7
N A T A S H  A O  T  O  M  O S  K I


who do you all think is she anyways?

I  hashed hex number of my answer with this algorithm, but it doesn't work.

I Tried reversing and it does not work neither.

no one attention to that ".txt" at  end of question, but I think that is a part of puzzle.

actually that is the first thing that i did! i just never posted anything about it here. i tried searching the internet and the file sharing platforms using the keywords in the text, the hash of the text using different hash algorithms but none of them led to any results.

that sounds greedy as fuck, we all know you wont post any useful info and try to use our useful info to crack the code

but I shared all things I know.in fact I am the only person that shares good info till now. read my previous replies.

So this is the Wallet:    179sxfh6rw6bHSo5wVUhLP96k46QaEzVP  (with 1BTC)
The private key is unknown: ?      (The solution is a 32 characters long plain-text)


WhyTheCombOfNatashaOtomoskiHas21Teeth?.txt

The answer seems like this: SubsidyIsCutInHalfEveryFourYears  (is related to the .txt file...)

Interesting:
Hint: 8 camel case english words, no special symbols
EightCamelCaseEnglishWordsNoSpecialSymbols

How can i test some private keys to check if is the solution?
 How do you try to unlock the Wallet? in Electrum? Bitcoin core?

sorry to ask again, I need some help here....  Embarrassed

How are you guys testing the "potential" private key solution? Are you using for example Electrum and "sweep private keys" to the corresponding Wallet: 179sxfh6rw6bHSo5wVUhLP96k46QaEzVP  ?

or doing all the steps:  private key -> public key; public key -> address and see if match with the address above?   Huh

thank you

thank you

go to this link and enter your 32 character answer into upper text area, it will show you 64 character hexadecimal equal to your text. copy the hexadecimal and go to this link , click on "wallet details" button and paste 64 character hexadecimal into the text area, and click on "View Details" button. it will  shows you a public address. if your answer be correct then that public address should be equal to this puzzle public address.

lol i think this puzzle is kidding and OP is not active in this many days
Maybe. Fact is: the signature checks out, so OP does own the address holding 1 BTC.

We know that "?" cant be a part of a file name.
That limitation depends on your Operating System. I can put anything (except slash "/") in filenames.

 Thank you for the help!

Maybe you can help me again Huh
 
My next question is about the txid, if you look there are 6 different addresses sending BTC to the 1BTC address at the same time, how is this possible?
should we play a little with the date? or it´s wrong direction? look the seconds...9...21...20

2019-01-12       09:21:20   could be used some permutations...  20190112 
------------------------------
here the Tx:                                                                 HASH
 
1BucKE5UHd4uXFtqyycGUJR6p6Vb1WBd2L     ------>    77a45ddf381acb841ee24a2484dd77c58e283b39   --->   0.31978334 BTC

a puzzle has to be logic in all cases


that is only true if you assume the puzzle was designed correctly. but not everyone is capable of designing a well thought puzzle, so there is always a chance that OP thought it is a good design with a good "hint" but in fact it doesn't make any sense.
of course it won't be clear unless the answer is revealed in which case it would already be too late to decide.

good job(thumbs up emoji), but I think there should be a logical relationship between a puzzle and its solution. In my opinion it is foolish if someone say: "I m thinking about 8 random words, guess them if you can!". who can guess 8 random words?!

They told me to use this, https://brainwalletx.github.io/#generator.
I'm not sure if Im on the right track but I always spent an hour everyday to come up with 8 words, 32 characters.

We will never know until we get the answers. Maybe we were just overthinking and the answers were already revealed.

I was thinking it is an anagram.
My best not working guesses were:
SatoshiNakamotoHasTheHexOfTheBtc
SheMetSatoshiNakamotoAtTheHexCon

And just random one
BlockNumbersAreTheTeethOfTheComb

Tried also using the hex to decimal and picking words from BIP39 by numbers, but that just did not add up. 8 words in the question, 8 words in the answer.
Could not find the logic to this, so gave up as well. At least giving us one word from the answer would have been great help.

Keep plugging away, its not supposed to be easy. I'm sure a hint will be dropped in good time if it's needed, if not then it was fun and ammusing. Smiley

My money is on it's legit, I'm too old and stupid to figure it out so I'll just watch you guys and or gals.

nobody can tell you whether you are on the right track or wrong track because the question is vague at best. and since there is no standard for brainwallets i would be surprised if using it would work. for example this one that you linked is doing a 1 time SHA256 on the passphrase, i have seen others do different numbers of hashes, or even using HMAC functions or use PBKDF functions and use your passphrase as its seed with 2048 iterations.
each of these methods would give you a different private key and without a starnard who is to say which one you should use?

There is a FOMO brewing...
