1BTC - Bitcoin Treasure Hunt - Can you crack the code? [competition now closed]

[Wendigo]

NaSCasino  maybe 

[ndnh]

It was cracked? wow.

It forms a triangle? Bermuda triangle? 000, 001, 100 in order.

The triangle contains North America.

The triangle is incomplete in one end.

(some notes:

Alonzo Church (AC) born: 1903 - died: 1995 = Age 92
Alan Turing (AT) born: 1912 - died: 1954 = Age 42
Charles Babbage (CB) born: 1791 - died: 1871 = Age 80)

---------------------------

genesis edition 001 maybe is the key to the cipher
AC 100 AT 001 CB 000

good idea, but the first part of the equation can be solved a by a 5 year old, once you have that answer you just need to throw it in the "bin"

Halfinney

actually not a bad answer, this would have been nice

not this time sorry

[steveturk]

267079680

incorrect

[steveturk]

C3220132A

sorry not correct

[steveturk]

NaSCasino  maybe 

that would be so cruel, lol, good idea though

very clever answer but sorry, no

You mentioned an equation. Does this mean the password is the solution to an equation with multiple variables?

And what is that equation that will produce a 9 digit result wow.

you want to use the contents of the virtual coins to do a calculation and then you want to bin the solution....

Guessing that password lies in counting every n-letter (we get n from given numbers). If thats the case its about figuring n and starting points.

Alonzo Church     = AC  = 100
Alan Turing         = AT = 001
Charles Babbage = CB  = 000


Deducting the letters to be unique; (paranthesis are just a thought like mastermind game)
A L O N Z C H U R - 100 (1 in right place and 2 are in wrong places) / (4 in right place)
A L N T U R  I G   - 001 (1 in right place and 2 are in wrong places) / (1 in right place)
C H A R L E S B G - 000 ( 0 in right place and 3 are in wrong places) / (0 in right place)

Let's order those like mastermind game:
A L O = 100 that means; A O L
T U R = 001 that means; U T R
S B G = 000 that means; S B G, S G B, B S G, B G S, S G B, S B G

Some other thought; (need help)
Common 3 letters;
A, L, R
Common 2 letters;
N, C, H, U, G
Non common letters;
O, Z, T, I, E, S


@steveturk, is this 9 letter code has a meanings? or it can be random chars?

[Wendigo]

Are you sure it's only letters?

[The Young Turk]

Are you sure it's only letters?

if it's a mastermind game I'm pretty sure it's only letters.

well done, you have just eliminated a few avenues of investigation!

[steveturk]

Are you sure it's only letters?

yes, how sure are you?

[steveturk]

if it's a mastermind game I'm pretty sure it's only letters.

really, I am not even a proper member yet, so mastermind.... I don't think so

not this time, i bet the first one to go through all the clues properly, gets it!
