The Legend of Satoshi Nakamato, FINAL STEP PUBLISHED.... 4.87 BTC GRAND PRIZE!

[coolmyrig]

It looks like a new start point！

EDIT: What happened to the Satoshi hacker? Could this be related? That'd be so crazy if Satoshi had a hand in this...

That came up earlier in the thread and someone determined that the game started before Satoshi's email got hacked, so it's probably just happenstance.

Unless some hacker was involved, doubt Satoshi would be directly involved. Then it's a matter of coordination. The hacker surfaced, and then just vanished? The warning and the hack were only 4 days apart. The warning came from the puzzle and then we had someone pretending to be Satoshi? I can't believe it'd simply be a coincidence.

EDIT: Wasn't the OP accused of being a hacker in the last game?
EDIT: OP twitter even says "1337 haxor" https://mobile.twitter.com/coin_artist

Does that mean https://blockchain.info/address/1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa is also a reward address?

Seeing as how this entire game could be interpreted as an elaborate and exquisitely crafted multimedia epic poem dedicated to Satoshi....it seems extremely farfetched that @coin_artist would be in any way connected to the Satoshi hacker. 

...then again, it would make a perfect alibi...

If so, I look forward to my big payday in buttcoin.

Even better: cryptoqueen = coin_artist = Satoshi Hacker

wtf? guys/gals, I think coin_artist is a con_artist. the end.

I think the hex reported by the site is just a joke.  It's the sha256 sum of '404\n'

echo "404" | sha256sum

Does that mean https://blockchain.info/address/1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa is also a reward address?

These 65 BTC are unspendable. I wondered why the creator of the puzzle wasted satoshies sending them there, first thought there was some hint in the transaction but couldn't find anything.

So apparently my joke was not that obvious... How do you know OP sent bitcoin to that address?

Sorry, was not sure if was a joke.

Followed that https://blockchain.info/tx/47286922b97dd3e43b139e834533953de6ae0b0111751ca4da2a198c40e229e4 transaction few days ago to see if there are other 0.3 BTC prizes around, not sure any more if there was a lnik to genesis block or somebody else mentioned it.

[flyingcatt]

I still dont know what's going on.

I hope it goes on, this would be great for BTC community.

[mirth23]

It's still going on!

Hey guys!

I just noticed there is a new ARG going on.
I can see you guys made a lot of progress.

It seems intriguing but I will probably not be participating in this one, too busy at the time.

However, I did have a glimpse at your progress and had a look at the ASCII at the warp page and made a few points for you: http://pastebin.com/s51CYtGW

Line 1 contains the following:
##S#t@a##n##d@#i##n#g###`    `    ''''+####@@a#l@o@n@e@@#,@A@l##o@v#i@@n##g@@b##e##e@.@@@

Line 2 contains the name Beto - which is short for many names like Roberto, Alberto, etc.

Line 3 contains the following:
+h##e+#v+';:;;;''+e#r+````` ``.:;'''+#m#i@#s@@r@@@e@@@a@@@@d@@.@@A@l@#@l@@@t@@@h@@a@@@@@@

Last and most important,
Line 39 contains the following:
+d+A'++'':,@@,:;''++++;;'';::;+,:+@@@#@#@h@t@:@/@o@r@e@o@g@.@e@/@r@j@c@s@b@t@o#@@@s+@#@@o

keeping just the interesting part:
h@t@:@/@o@r@e@o@g@.@e@/@r@j@c@s@b@t@o

replace @ with what is already known:
h@t@:@/@o@r@e@o@g@.@e@/@r@j@c@s@b@t@o
http://@o@r@e@o@g@.net/@r@j@c@s@b@t@o

I hope this helps you guys
Good luck and have fun

I still dont know what's going on.

me too

   Finally got through the door by playing with the warp poem!! It was driving me crazy. All those weirdly capitalized words with a message to or by Satoshi.

Standing alone,
A loving bee.
Today we Live,
Ode to the Free.
Some will think,
He is dead.
Is that Truth,
Never misread.

All that are lost,
Know the future.
Aeons will fly,
Man will Alter.
All your heart,
To the mislead.
Open your eyes,
Give them Bread.

Ode to no one
Ode to the Free.
Death may come,
Black may be.
You will love,
Eclipsed you will be.
Fortunes foretold,
Rich men will cease. (wrong order) sorry, ignore that, that was from my notes w/questions. Order is correct as far as I know.

I am not gone.
Encrypted and free.
Nodes run wild,
Dawn of the Bees.

I Will Never For…    

Don't forget our earlier clue: beware the false satoshi


By the way:
Fun video from Coin_Artist posted on twitter last night:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GpxyRc39Ssc  Encouraging/taunting us to "bring it on."

Verse "All your heart," would make much more sense with "Open your heart," and Satoshi's name would be correct. How come?

[rock_collector]

That's what I was thinking! Seems awkward. Open makes so much more sense.

[rock_collector]

I edited my post. Had something misleading in there, so sorry. I had pasted from my notes.
