interesting competition but seems to solve privatekey based on a painting is very difficult, but hopefully there are great people who solve it because the offer given is quite tempting but honestly I'm not sure about this because it's a little suspicious.

I seen images as puzzle before, his is great, thanks a lot op, won't solve myself anything since i'm incapable but shared it with a group of solvers . The crypto community is bigger than some think , age of rust for example makes crypto games with crypto prizes on the game/puzzle. It also leads to other very cool crypto games and puzzles, just to add it to the puzzle material with prizes in this post.

So if not a problem I would like to add two links here that are connected with what mentioned above, games and puzzles: ageofrust.games and pineapplearcade.net

Also, I was told by a member of the puzzle community the puzzle looks fake, will update when new things, on the meanwhile puzzle hunters should really check links up I know of over 25 btc and no idea of how much eth given by just the first site, no idea about the second but the second is a fusion between a few crypto puzzle communities.

Same tough.

Probably they only want to raise awareness about their platform and try to get a lot of followers, the image also from "google" if you search the image by using "Google Image Search". They just add the information about the project and eth address on the bottom, here the original painting image: https://artbynelly.com/product/v-print-limited-edition-0001/

I also don't believe too much the balance on that address, need to make a sign message first from the address to prove the ownership of that address from them.

This will be very tough, I seem not to see anything that could lead to the extraction of the private keys. I want to believe the platform is seeking more community members.

You nailed it, it looks like they are only gathering followers with this trick. If proven fake for sure it will backfire at them. They can't even make original images for this so-called event. Anyways, Let's wait for the OP to clarify himself/herself If they have some explanation about it. Just check their social media there are only a few followers I guess they have just started.

It is very obvious that there is nothing in the picture and as you can see their post.
"100 ETH is hidden in this picture. Anyone, who finds the private key, can sweep it.

Otherwise, follow
@CPD_Project
 & retweet by tagging others. Everyone in the chain, that leads to the winner, will get 1 ETH each."

It is very clear that they are only boosting their followers using this technique and as I can see the balance were transferred just 2 days ago so there is a big chance that they are truly the owner of the balance. And the truth behind their post are as follows base on my deduction.
* Create a false marketing just to gather some followers
* There will be a winner of 1 ETH each but the number of winners are not stated

[minairia3]

There is a puzzle before like this but the prize is bitcoin but I am not sure if they got the answers already on that riddle. Now this one, I think this could be a trick like everyone else said. This is a scheme to gain followers or attract users on their platform but the truth is they will never let someone get the prize.

It is very obvious that there is nothing in the picture and as you can see their post.

Yeah most likely that there is nothing to be found useful to get the prize. This is a lame plan for marketing. If there is a way to know PK from this they should disclose the process from that image and we can see if this is legit or they just using this for their own benefit.

It's difficult to solve the puzzle as the hidden answer can be looked as a usual image. I wonder how people can find the right answer in that image. The private key has so many combinations, and that can make us give the wrong answer. I hope that someone can be able to get the right answer and get the prizes inside that wallet. And I hope that the rewards will really distribute to the winner.

its a little bit promotion with puzzle giveaway it may be tricky but if its real its a d*mn cool idea for promotion .
I checked the address and the 100 ETH balance is still there , no one still are the winners who claim it. I just find it difficult to find the any  or number in the images.

The questions is if  its real that they have hidden it there or just using the puzzle to have many users to follow thier twitter account.

i have my doubts about this puzzle , for me it is impossible to find any information in the puzzle that i can use to crack the puzzle , it is (almost) impossible to crack private keys to open a ethereumwallet especialy when you have to find all the info in a picture , think all that they are doing is gaining attention for their own project

@OP is not part of the platform, he only sharing the info.

All puzzle challenges always hard to be found, but the problem they using a google picture for the challenge. Now, who is guarantee the picture has the private key, no clue at all on the puzzle. At least if they want to make a puzzle challenge, they will make their own image + add 1 clue on the picture if the puzzle still can't be solved a certain time they will reveal more clues about the puzzle.

[andulolika]

A puzzle like this or two were going on on steemit few years back, but the image had a huge resolution you had to zoom the shit out of it, this image is in pretty poor quality that and the group of solvers claiming it looks fake was enough for me, the balance... does look fresh but usually if you do such thing you sign a message aswell, how it would be fair to treat OP then?
Edit: Here's a link of steemit puzzlepicture as example: https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@lucasgabd/up-for-a-challenge-this-picture-puzzle-has-more-than-4-8btc-27000-00-usd-hidden-since-2015  I'm certain that you can see more examples if you follow the link.

Edit2: I do like the pic anyhow.

Well, if someone found the answer from this image, he was definitely not a normal person. This riddle is really too hard and I can't find any clues when looking at it. Hope everyone will find the answer as soon as possible

[Clark05]

Solving this image is very hard because they did not give 100 ethereum easily they need people to think very deep about what is the really answer. But Im really sure that  they have person who can solve this and they got the reward. I don't have enough knowledge about this because my thinking is not good with ghe logic or any problems. Let see who gonna solve that.

[bluebit25]

There is nothing special about this picture, it seems like it is a normal photo and they are trying to create curiosity to attract readers, Also it seems they are trying to promote their twitter. by calling follow if we can't solve the puzzle

[batang_bitcoin]

There is a puzzle before like this but the prize is bitcoin but I am not sure if they got the answers already on that riddle.

Is that the Phemex exchange puzzle?

This can be true but projects like this do really make their promise for puzzles like this with real money, with real Ethereums. Decoders that are good with puzzle-solving can do this but it's not going to be easy because it's a lot of money.

[Retainly_Collie]

It's too hard to find the private key in this picture. I tried to observe for about 15 minutes but I could not find any hints or information related to the private key. If someone finds a private key, then he's a genius

[BlacksmithCorporation]

I know I don't have a chance to find that one, but I can't wait to know the solution to this interesting riddle. It used to be like that but the prize was BTC and someone had solved it but I didn't know if it was real or fake.

[bussybuddy]

Looks to be a great promo especially to promote Eth, seems to be coming from a real supported and hodler of Eth but honestlyi do not see anyone guessing private keys from this painting alone unless we have some hints.

I thought they were promoting the CPD project. And if that's true, they are really smart for creating the curiosity of the participants and they will definitely follow their twitter.
