BITCOIN PUZZLE: THE PREFIX DILEMMA - A follow up

[nomachine]

Works on Small Puzzles

The keyspace is actually easy to walk through
Prefix hits pop off pretty often
You hit PREFIX_UPGRADE_HITS = 3 real quick
Prefix length keeps leveling up
Adaptive jumping low-key smart

lol you can crack small puzzles any way you want, even on a potato PC

Do we really need someone to code this out, to end this stupid non-sense once and for all?

- randomize (shuffle) the range keys, let's call this sequence S

then apply to S whatever idiotic algorithm you can think of that finds prefixes and skips keys and whatever.

You'll get the same results, I am willing to bet an arm and a leg that you will get the exact same results and the same "efficiency", which can only prove that H160 is a uniform distribution and the idea of location biases, skips, and whatever is simply cognitive bias, which also goes by the name of Gambler's Fallacy.

If the hash is truly random, then the order you search keys doesn’t matter.

Backwards?
Every third key?
Start at f6f5431d?
Zig-zag?
Shuffle first and then act like you’re being clever?

Makes zero difference for me.

You can shuffle the whole keyspace, scan it in reverse, hop around, chase prefixes, invent “smart jumps”
at the end of the day, it’s all just personal preference and a way to stay entertained while you burn CPU cycles for the rest of your life.

This thing’s straight-up impossible, man.
I swear these puzzles only exist to mess with people.
Feels like fishing in the middle of the ocean with a busted rod, no bait, and someone’s in your ear like,
“Nah bro, trust me, the fish is right there.”

You should read the thread and try the codes; it's not that we're invalidating the cryptography, we're simply looking for something better. The numbers don't lie

The only thing all the numbers showed so far is that there is zero advantage whatsoever. Otherwise, Bitcoin would have dropped to 0$

If you think there is even the slightest 0.00000000000000000000001% "bias": nope, there isn't any. All your numbers were spot on to what one expects, and there is zero efficiency gain, but actually efficiency loss. To understand this, one must be able to use a brain though.

You're only BS-ing yourself. It takes exactly 3 additional lines of code to shuffle the indexing of the generation of hashes in all of your superb AI-generated scripts, but my fear is that once you do that and realize that everything works just as "efficient" as anything else you had before, we'll only end up with "oh, but you forgot about the location bias of the location indices of the private keys of the sequence of indices of the locations of the entropy ....
