blockladder / watashi-kokoto GitHub connection
Looking at blockladder's "project pr" forks, there is a user called bakujo. Not much by itself, but they are following one and only person: our watashikokoto. blockladder and watashi are perhaps close friends.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2044123.0Satohash seems like a commonly followed repository between them all on Github. I mean, there are several possibilities here. It could be that OP expects us to input a 32 (i.e. 32 bytes = 256bit) char english worded answer, convert it to private key through some algorithm like the one in the link. It could also be that OP is simply referring to an 8 word 32 char answer to be input into a brainwallet checker right away. It could be that the answer to the question leads to a second clue that will contain the private key. Who knows? Forget using the code in the repository. There's no .cpp file (which I am not skilled enough to compose) so gcc won't compile it--the header file contains undefined references.

I was thinking.. 8 words 32 char.... an average of 4 letter per word.... it reminds me of the BIP39 wordlist... where all words have 4 significant letters (some only 3)
Maybe the question refers to that list somehow...? there are 8 words in the question (not counting "?", "21", ".txt" )
I'm trying some COMB-inations.. so far nothing ...

The answer might not be part of the BIP39 wordlist at all. If OP just created a custom sentence in Brainwallet to fit the puzzle, it would invalidate bruteforcing with the BIP39 list.

After looking at watashi's post they do seem like the same person. her post before this thread was about reversing something multiple ways until they all reach the same point. maybe its related to that and the 2nd post to this thread shows a possible way to decrypt a piece of it. so maybe you need to follow the steps done to decrypt that for the entire message. Also on the first page she provides a solution on how to get the key. i'm not a 100% sure they're the same person but assuming it is you would have alot of information to go on.

So... You know how Watashi linked into a github repo by movedon2otherthings that included code for a tool called Satohash? Yeah...the code didn't work. BUT I FIXED IT! There were absolutely no declarations in the header file to match the definitions. https://github.com/jajorda2/satohashYou just need to compile in terminal: gcc satohash.c hash.h -o run You can then follow the example instructions in the readme.md. to execute whatever you're trying to do. DISCLAIMER I do not know if this has anything to do with the puzzle. I've converted a number of phrases this way into sha256 private keys, converted them to WIF, and no glorious "179..." Enjoy ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Just tested it. The code works in Windows as well, you just need a C compiler (I downloaded GCC) and ran the results.

"Why 21 million? The truth is, it was an educated guess. The math worked out, or as close to it as I had wanted it to. Before settling on 21 million however, I had considered making 100 BTC as the reward, and 42—the answer to life, the universe, and everything. But afraid that others would consider my reference to Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy a quip and at the expense of not being taken seriously, I changed it to 21 million," the author writes.

He say: my approach start with shit solution
SheIsCombingWithTheCombFeelsGood
then you can replace "The" with "A" fill the extra space with new words
SheIsCombingWithACombThatMagical
then you can reorder
ACombThatMagicalSheIsCombingWith
or even
AMagicalCombThatSheIsCombingWith
put back "The", change "Magical" to "Magic"

This makes it a guessing game and not a riddle/puzzle at all..in which case the answer could be literally anything OPs mind conjured at the time.

Latest solution tried: For some reason I felt like the answer was hidden in the question, so I did the following. Step 1: Assign each word a number based on the length of its characters. Why = 3 The = 3 Comb = 4 Of = 2 Natasha/Satoshi = 7 Otomoski/Nakamoto = 8 Has = 3 21 = 2 Teeth= 5 ? = not a word . = not a word txt = ignore for this solution (assumed it was to throw us off maybe). Step 2: Take this number list (3, 3, 4, 2 ,7 ,8, 3, 2, 5) and run it through some python code to get all the possible combinations that amount to 32 characters. import itertools numbers = [3, 3, 4, 2 ,7 ,8, 3, 2, 5] result = [seq for i in range(len(numbers), 0, -1) for seq in itertools.combinations(numbers, i) if sum(seq) == 32] print result
Step 3: Read results to find that only 1 combination consists of 8 different numbers (i.e. words). (3, 3, 4, 2, 7, 8, 3, 2), <-- this one is 8 numbers therefore 8 words, to satisfy the hint "8 camel case words". (3, 3, 4, 2, 7, 8, 5), (3, 3, 4, 7, 8, 2, 5), (3, 4, 2, 7, 8, 3, 5), (3, 4, 7, 8, 3, 2, 5), (3, 4, 2, 7, 8, 3, 5), (3, 4, 7, 8, 3, 2, 5).
Step 4: Run the words corresponding to those numbers through the permutation solver program provided by ligor on page 17 https://github.com/Igor-san/1BtcPuzzle, once with Natasha Otomoski for numbers 7, 8, and once with Satoshi Nakamoto. 40,320 possible combinations of the words corresponding to (3, 3, 4, 2, 7, 8, 3, 2) give 32 characters, the solver program goes through them in a couple of minutes. Step 5: No results, no key found. Step 6: Cry.

I’ve been looking at this a different way. What if the question’s anagram solution isn’t really leading to that being the private key. What if it is a guide toward the key? There are words like “obtain” and “key” that can be extracted. Similar bitcoin related words like “hash” and “satohash”, “combo” “name(s)” etc. I wonder..

Hi Tsuyugushi, with that software for this puzzle need internet connection to find the key if put correct words? And will show a message when private key is found?

Hey friend, I'm not sure as I am not the author of the software, Ligor is (you'll find his post on Pg 17 of this thread). IMHO, yes, it requires an internet connection, and will display a message if the private key is found. You might want to verify with Ligor how it works specifically.

Obviously she isn't him, but
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 S A T O S H I N A K A M O T O
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?
Why Not? if we take into account that dividing into the Name itself, we get something like this .... Satoshi - Naka-Moto Where Moto is the feminine gender, and the female name is ... Naka is a Surname. A Satoshi Description .... This is one of the possible decompositions .... There are a lot of them. so exclude that he can be and she! if we are talking about one person is not right!

Can anyone paste in a big .txt (rar) file of all permutations contains every of possible generated 32 character-8 words texts ?
I don't really know why I can't run this 1btc searcher tool but if somebody has all generated possible words I will be glad.
