EDIT3: Ignore the last line and you get the alphabet, I think.....
If you rotate/shift using the alphabet, with a single step interval.... I guess you always get the alphabet in each column  Erm, nope, i went from 13 to -13 and it almost (sorry I am Greek and our alphabet is different) the english alphabet...... 26 characters, isn't it? EDIT: Can someone please confirm, this could be important..... |

EDIT: Can someone please confirm, this could be important..... Yes its normal that you get the alphabet at each place if you do a complete shift (-13 to 13 or 1 to 26 doesnt matter). While I see some words in there, I dont think thats the way to go. thanks anyway, was worth a try  Still not able to do something substantial (have family from out of town visiting today). Maybe its possible that the other picture of her contains a clue? There was some sort of binary in there. IIRC the reddit post about the 1st picture was just some OP bashing and noone did even care the code. I will look into this later. Edit: found to pic https://i.imgur.com/7zg1g9E.jpgand the way the 1's and 0's are aligned I dont think its a code. Its just to hard to tell which number is in which line. |
Im not really here, its just your imagination.

Erm, and what are we supposed to find from an image we can barely see? And yes there are similar colors, but I don't think it matters, though I could be wrong. Sorry, forgot my manners Welcome aboard bro/sis |

Hi all, noob here. Just read through the thread, and it seems like the puzzle has been direct? Anyone research the phrase "they cannot attack what they cannot see," yet?
About a thousand times by now. Also researched and used the words: stealth, hidden, safe, out of reach, untouchable, etc etc.... EDIT: Sorry, forgot my manners Welcome aboard bro/sis and stick around. We need all the help we can get |

While we're on that, the logo on his shirt bears a resemblance to the rays behind them in the artwork. |

I did a recheck on the Morse code. Using the following suggested site for translation The character that could not be translated : "---." stands for "!" according to this table. this translates the last series of columns after "THEY CANNOT ATTACK WHAT THEY DO NOT SEE" ISTOPW ORDS T LWG ! NY AEFDMH THMETNY TWTEWTPOE KEUEAL ENEDLAW Still brewing on the BTC transactions sequence... [0.00404][0.005]@O[0.0009]#CHCKUSER[0.00404]!DO!!!"DONOT"HTTP I translate the 404 to --> Not found, possibly indicating we did not find the (complete) clue. The 0.0009 is strange, its is not binary due to transaction fees and the "9" seems to be right shifted one digit too far to indicate a number. coinartist seems to have vanished from all kinds of social sites. --> checkuser?--> not found.... cannot attack? Do not see? Using Google cache a transcript of her last twitter post can be found, referring to this puzzle. dimensions are mentioned (23" * 36") (first columns then rows... it could have been a hint....) Link to the source is mentioned. "i.imgur.com/Uc6VAnV.jpg" Could do with a new hint thought, riddles are not my thing...... and a couple of restful nights and productive days... :-) |

More like you will get nothing there.... |

Alice, FFS girl, can't you see we are dieing for another clue? Pleeeeeezzzzzz Thank You We Love you I'm fairly certain that we are "Alice." The artist is YT. To be more precise, the artist's username here started with YT and I think YT was her twitter handle. YT is also in the image in a way that can be interpreted as a signature. The "CHCKUSER" message made me wonder: perhaps the name YT is relevant. My guess is that it's taken from a major character in Snow Crash. (That's why I mentioned Hiro Protagonist in my first post in this thread.) In Snow Crash, YT stands for "Yours Truly". I hope this helps. |

So, we have no clues again.....
sure we do. current unknowns: - what is up with that wily blue dot? - what does "THEY CAN NOT ATTACK WHAT THEY DO NOT SEE" mean? - do the morse words do anything other than make the above phrase? - is there anything in the junk redgreen? - what do any of the alphanumerics in the puzzle mean that aren't part of the public bitcoin address? - can someone who's better than me at GIMP find something hidden in the image? threshold noise folding: http://imgur.com/d5YK3nO |
