I agree. I sure hope someone here wins the prize. Or at least not someone on my FB friends  Cheesy

I’ll say this the 33 does not represent the number of scrambled characters

things 33 can mean:
- Characters should be shifted 33 positions to the right/left as a certain step of unscrambling
- has smth to do with the 33rd character in a scrambled PK
- smth has to be done to the key only before/after 33rd character
- Threes should be considered separately and can mean 3 characters at the beginning and end or 3rd characters at the beginning and end
- Has smth to do with the sum of numerical values of the letters?
- The 3rd character of the PK should be the 33rd character of the donation address at bitcoin.org=)
- 33rd character should be "C" for Cherry
- Tells us to look at the 33rd second of the video

And that's just of the top of my head

henkster91@gmail.com was the reporter? Im not going to keep making videos if a wanker wants to report them cause he cant solve the puzzle. What a sore loser. AND the guy Whos name is Henk Holveck had been commenting on the video being unsolvable. AND now 2 days later the video is taken down? AND now this Henk guy claims its not him ... LOL ... OKAY dude whatever.

Im waiting to hear what youtube has to say about this. I didnt use any thing from mycelium in the video, Thats why Im confused why youtube would even take it down.

Your other videos had mycelium logos etc. Maybe they shut the whole thing down because of those?

The account is still up and going, for now anyways. Im under the impression this going to continue by this user. He wants easy BTC prizes. If he cant win, report the video. Whats to stop him from reporting after he wins in the future. Im here to promote a fun environment and this wanker wants to take and take.

Looks like all my accounts are reported by this user. Hes really mad he didnt solve the puzzle. He thought it was unsolvable and so he reported me :-) ... Guess Ill have to regroup and return using a different format for my videos. So, much for helping the new user figure out how to use a specific Bitcoin product.

Ill let you know when I return!

Later y'all

so i assume you took back the prize even though others have already spent many hours working on it.
that's a major strike against your credibility. a sub-par puzzle on your first outing could be forgiven.
if you're going to attempt another puzzle, please take a moment to check out previous successful puzzles.

Funs over for everyone. NOT my fault or strike IMO. Video down so is the prize. Hows that fair to new users if they cant view the puzzle to win?

Ill regroup and return :-)

SO it appears it is user henkster, here on BCT, that reported the puzzle.  He commented on this thread earlier. Syaing it was a sham and unsolvable and n\bla bla bla ... He just deleted the is comment. He's upset I have posted his email in this thread. Which I didnt intend to do, but I cant remove it now, Its been quoted. Its obviously a secondary account for someone here.

Anyways, thank this user for removing the puzzle.

The right thing to do would be to post the solution so that all people could see that it was legit.

im with O4karitO,
tell us about yours clues, that would have solved the scrambled PK,
im sure everybody that tried will remember seeing them,
then we can establish if you were legit or just after subs

I feel sad because the quiz video has been taken down by a jealous user here. I hope that you will create new quiz videos soon because it will make the whole forum hotter. And there are so many people here with me who always support you because of the challenge you create for everyone to join.

I think he should be given time to figure out what to do. He spent a lot of time putting this together so I would vote to be patient.

I'll share my ideas on this puzzle for what it is worth.

1. The OP kept conflating the raw 32 byte hex code with the WIF compressed format. His instructional videos showed said that the 32 byte private key contained the numbers 0-9 ans A-Z case insensitive.
This is not the case for the raw format 0-9a-f or the WIF base58 format with missing letters and number O,0,I,l.
In any case, I thought he might be using a mnemonic from the BIP39 wordlist. Here are some of the words that I found in the order presented in the video,
Episode, puzzle, (bright or sunny---from sunglasses), (party or festival), cherry(bomb), advice( from 33), little, corn, field, old, country, boy, travel, security, common, sense.
I found several valid private keys from this list but not the correct one. Maybe you can find it.

2. The OP said that all the characters were not scrambled. With that info, I looked for a way to slice the scrambled characters into blocks of characters. My first given is that the unscrambled compressed WIF key will start with a 'K' followed by either 'x', 'y' or 'z'. I would slice the scrambled key to expose those letters so they could pair with the 'K'. The way I determined how to slice was using the same words I used in the mnemonic approach-- slicing by the length of the word. I found several ways to slice this up, but nothing that would give me a valid key.

Edit : I forgot to mention that one block would have 33 characters unchanged from the scrambled key

Do these approaches look promising? I am curious too how this was to be solved:)

This copyright reporting stuff is getting stupid and silly!
And I also don't understand frustrated sick person who reported it...  Roll Eyes

You can also reupload video on some blockchain based platforms like LBRY, Bittubers, Dtube...

Well i watched the video a couple of times already before it was taken down and i noticed this on his video and since OP said cherry and 33 has nothing to do about the puzzle i'll list the one i noticed:

1. His head was looking to right direction before he counts 1-3
2. When he was in number 2 i noticed that his right hand was moving right to left as he talking about sweeping the private key.
3. his eyes was looking down to the left as he say bitcoin.org.
4. His head was looking to the left direction before saying the fourth or last tip.
5. his clothes color change from sky blue to teal.

I don't know if the cornfield before he was on car was clue or not anyway, but i saw the comments section that someone also noticed the direction of his head in each cut and OP said he was right path so, i guess that the car part has some clues from it.

Too bad the video was down i hope OP can make more puzzles or repost the video so, that we can continue the puzzle or start another puzzle...

My thoughts were:
- First, second, third and last characters are the scrambled ones (may be also 33rd?)
- First one is K
- Second one is either x,y or z
