So for interested groups/individuals - I have these progress files and I will sell them for 2ETH (upfront payment). If you are interested, please contact me via private message. To be fair - I sell files only once.

Hello!
I want to clarify, do you track PM? check it pls...

Concerning #66.

I think I finally have a setup/plan in place for #66.

I am completing 2^25.5 * 2^20 ranges about every 40 minutes. There is never a stop in the program to receive new ranges...it'll just keep churning.

The ranges are not sequential, they are random.

TTD's pool has 66 bit space broken down into 2^25 * 2^40 chunks. The ranges are selected randomly however, if a user selects to run 16 ranges in their settings file, then those 16 ranges are sequential.
TTD's pool averages anywhere from 50 to 91 * 2^40 ranges ran in an hour.

It will be interesting:
a) if the pool and myself actually keep plugging along at #66
b) if a = true, which method will find the key first
c) if I don't change up my plan in the next hour, LOL
d) someone else gets lucky (which is all part of it), finds it first

TBC...

Nah, not really...you said "I distribute the scan over the 20-3F keyspace, pick 3 random bytes" whereas my program just randomly generates roughly 800,000 new random key starting points every minute and then sequentially checks 2^20 keys from each random key starting point.

I have kept track of random keys and it looks like it is spreading the wealth well; example:

Every sub 44 bit range is being searched in, in roughly every 2.6 minutes.  Which eventually, every sub 40 bit will have been searched, and then every sub 36 bit, etc. etc.
Your way wasn't wrong, mine isn't, the pool's isn't...it's just luck at this point lol.

I am completing 2^25.5 * 2^20 ranges about every 40 minutes. There is never a stop in the program to receive new ranges...it'll just keep churning.

How long will it take to exhaust #66 search space assuming the same setup and one person searching it?

This has the same build dependencies as bitcrack, thanks though, guess I'll have to download 40GB of VS and CUDA.🥱

10GB is more realistic to be honest, considering I installed Visual Studio 2022 just now so I saw the actual install size.



Has anyone made a 64-bit version of Bitcrack yet? VanBitKraken perhaps? I haven't actually ran it before so I just want to confirm whether that optimization has already been tackled.

I think I estimated something between 89 to 100 years LOL; for a complete exhaustion however, as everyone else, I am hoping for a little bit of luck and find it way before then.

Rome nor any city was built in a day...the same is true for this challenge.

It's critical to understand that, and that you just have to come up with your own way of approaching this challenge...1 piece at a time, regardless of how large or small that piece is.

So I ran a smaller card, GTX 1660Ti, for 8 hours in the 66 through 69 bit range, searching for the addresses of #66 through #69 challenges.

In those 8 hours, the card generated 14,690,305 different starting keys/points and checked 2^20 keys from each starting key/point. I saved every random starting point and added FFFFF to each one to show the ranges and keys checked in those 8 hours.

That is only 15+ trillion keys checked in total, but they are all spread out over the 66-69 bit range.

If you want to look at what this single card was able to accomplish in 8 hours, you can download the text file here and look at all the different ranges searched.
The file has been sorted for easier viewing.

BTCChallenge

Let me know if you have any issues trying to download the text file. The file is only downloadable for 7 days.

One piece at a time...

(I am running round 2 of the same setup; a single card, searching for the four addresses, 66 through 69 bit. I will upload that file when it is done running/I stop the program.)

Agreed, however don't forget the original purpose of this challenge, which is to persuade people work together and find unforeseen weaknesses, so we should share all of our ideas publicly so the people in charge of development could have a chance of preventing any fatal damage to the system, because you know, it's not about one man becoming rich, it's about millions of people and their lives on the line.
      ________________________________________________

I'm interested to know if there is any way to calculate how often on average a certain address pops up in the key range, for example, take the first half from #66 address and search in sequence to see if you can find any pattern, if there was any then you could follow that same pattern for any other address.

What I realize is that we can never find any easy way to solve the riddle of breaking EC.

My suggestion is not just for you, Anyone with enough hash power could do this.

I had a few people want me to update a program that was built by someone else.

I have forked it, updated it and posted it. It now includes up to challenge #108. I will update to #160 as time permits.

https://github.com/WanderingPhilosopher/BitcoinChallengeScanner

It is a slow program but very easy to run, especially for beginners in the hunt for Red October (challenge/puzzle); but it will be a program like this that will probably find the key versus GPU power LOL!!

Download the BitcoinChallengeScanner.zip and extract all. Then double click on the BitcoinChallengeScanner.exe file to get started.

Enjoy!

It is a slow program but very easy to run, especially for beginners in the hunt for Red October (challenge/puzzle); but it will be a program like this that will probably find the key versus GPU power LOL!!

Enjoy!

Hi, v0.1 is working but I couldn't run v0.2!

I had a few people want me to update a program that was built by someone else.

I have forked it, updated it and posted it. It now includes up to challenge #108. I will update to #160 as time permits.

What error did you receive?

I didn't load the dependencies. Now, Download the BitcoinChallengeScanner.zip and extract all. Then double click on the BitcoinChallengeScanner.exe file to get started.

Try that and let me know if it works. Thanks.

Hi.
Good program. I started without problems.
It is a pity that the program is slow. But thanks anyway for the update.

Use the random version with GPU, if you don't know how, I'll teach you for 2 BTC  after I teach you some tricks, you'll be rich like Elon Musk. Lol.
Just joking. using GPU versions of any puzzle searching tool is more than 10 times faster, just saying.

Hi.
Good joke. Of course, I use different programs to find ranges using the GPU.
I can teach you for just 1 BTC. Lol.

Has anyone made a tool to correctly calculate the estimated time based on GPU computing power per puzzle? I could tell without any calculations that we are just scratching the surface using our systems, meaning it's not worth the time and effort, unless there was more bitcoins. Lol.

Easy way to calculate:

Take your speed in MKey/s. Divide range total by your MKey/s.

So if you have 30 MKey/s:

#66 has 36,893,488,147,419,103,232 total keys to check

36,893,488,147,419,103,232 / 30,000,000 (your total speed) = 1,229,782,938,247 seconds = 20,496,382,304 minutes = 341,606,371 hours = 14,233,598 days = 38,996 years to check all keys in #66 range.

And this is my cue to quit, lol. One could say, hope is a powerful motivation. That one is currently myself.

No more because Excel does not accept larger numbers.

Maybe someone will find the above table useful.

EDIT below:

I also had division of each next number by the previous one, but see no sense to add it to this table.

I suspect that this puzzle can be solved by something related to HD wallet with proper seed (words as first as possible from the english set for seeds) or binary data (some simple, as hex 0x00...0001) as master private key.
