Man that is some BULL, I hope this isn't true somehow.
Yeah for some reason I am not convinced it's the eagles... or the bulls (yet) for that matter. Time will tell. The bulls certainly have an issue.... nobody has been able to sweep one. The private key is some 44 character garbage. Doesn't a 44 character private key correspond to a private key Base64? please give it a shot: public key: 13NgxJBSk2bwWd2W4cr4XQqNNQTmyoCM4a private key under hologram: EdLEZieDbChBMHJp858568iYuhcKWQNBWbBKeQMuckc9

Here's the actual peeled key from my Bull: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FKCAWSOZ.jpg&t=665&c=xHqoi00FAk123Q)

EdLEZieDbChBMHJp858568iYuhcKWQNBWbBKeQMuckc9 is represented as ca76964390a3d7b99f0451a0a95a55a2098f9700cf6b0a2369a76b311d60427a in hex, and this is the private key for 13NgxJBSk2bwWd2W4cr4XQqNNQTmyoCM4a. It looks like Sol Noctis took a private key in hex format and converted it to base58 without any of the necessary preprocessing to generate a WIF-encoded key. The 0x80 mainnet flag is not prepended, nor is the 0x01 flag to denote a compressed public key appended. Lastly the checksum is missing. Some quick/dirty code follows to generate a proper WIF-encoded key from what you received: const crypto = require('crypto'); const bs58 = require('bs58'); let sha256 = crypto.createHash('sha256');
let privkey = bs58.decode('EdLEZieDbChBMHJp858568iYuhcKWQNBWbBKeQMuckc9').toString('hex'); console.log(privkey); privkey = '80' + privkey + '01'; console.log(privkey); let hash = sha256.update(Buffer.from(privkey, 'hex')).digest('hex'); console.log(hash); sha256 = crypto.createHash('sha256'); let hash2 = sha256.update(Buffer.from(hash, 'hex')).digest('hex'); console.log(hash2); let checksum = hash2.slice(0, 8); console.log(checksum); privkey += checksum; console.log(privkey); let encoded = bs58.encode(Buffer.from(privkey, 'hex')); console.log(encoded);
I've swept the key, please provide an address to which you'd like to receive your funds.

One mystery solved. Great work cwil. Hopefully this code is easy enough for someone to host somewhere and we can have our own sol noctis bull redeemer page.

Please keep it, it's yours! That is some good work to crack their code. I would not have figured that out. Sweeping my Eagle coin was so simple in comparison.

Has this mystery been solved yet? It looks like the corrupted private keys have found a solution (congrats ciwil). And I was talking to @yogg over the phone and he will also code a script to convert the private key back to the normal format (with the covid19 he is some extra free time on his hand ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) )

Once I have it I will look to Top World Coins for some answers. I will update on this thread as I have more information.

Response from topworldcoins...after i linked this thread and explained issue...so the last email.
Hello,
We are responsible for the coins we sell to our buyers and issues with our coins. For others, we can't help, because we don't know how it was purchased.
Kind regards, Helen

Not a very good PR imagine the following answer from Ford : "we are only responsible for the car we sell directly to our clients. For Ford car owners that didn't purchase brand new from us we can't help (even if we fucker up as a car manufacturer) because we don't know how it was purchased" just my 2 cents

Kind regards, Helen Hi, Please respond to this thread on bitcointalk.org https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5231305.0 It is becoming apparent there may be issues with the key generation of the Binary Bulls Specifically how to sweep this key. public key: 13NgxJBSk2bwWd2W4cr4XQqNNQTmyoCM4a private key under hologram: EdLEZieDbChBMHJp858568iYuhcKWQNBWbBKeQMuckc9 Any explanation will help put the collecting community at ease.

The coin was shipped to Lesbian Cow and arrived per the tracking number. I haven't heard anything else. Hey guys, what happened to the overage that was sent to that coin? did i miss the explanation? Where did the extra btc go that he sent to that coin?
The extra funds are still sitting in an address the coin creator swept them into on 2/20/20 and haven't moved since.

Hello all, I have the coin in question and have contacted Top World Coins which is where I originally purchased quite a few of them. Due to travel and real life business issues occupying my time I did not contact TWC until this weekend just past. That said, I woke up this morning with a reply from them. They seem genuinely concerned and are looking into their key generation/funding process. I have checked all the Sol Nocti I have and they remain funded, I would appreciate it if anyone with a Sol Noctis could check their funding and report back to me. I will update here when I have more information from TWC. Cheers!

Everyone has been silent as far as I can tell. The funding on mine is fine, sorry for not reporting. And I assume the code that cwil posted above will work if I ever have to clam it.
With that being said, this is why I have posted a few times about the issues with loaded coins.
Stay safe.
