Wow

Amazing discovery of a amazing coup. The guy who made this and the guy which discovered it are pure genious.

I am really excited to find out in which priv key generation code this thing is implemented.

Amazing, if any of it were true, Upon reviewing this article, I took to myself to spend 1/2 hour and run some of these things, I have a database of 5 million BTC addresses, and every public-key ever used, both hashed and open, and I ran the addresses though the system, I found less than 1,000 addresses have been used as 'seeds', and I found of that only 'one' had ever had a transaction, ... Not VERY INTERESTING .....
IMHO this article is a sci-fi fairy-tale that can be told to bitcoin wannabe's and their boyfriends.

I am afraid arguing "against this" is like arguing against the theory of God.

You cannot prove your point.

There are an infinite number of possible variations on the embedded hints and seeds and secrets.

For example, assume not that "seed" is embedded and with "seed you can discover the private key.

Now consider k=numeric value(seed)+c

Where c is a constant.

Have fun....

Well then goes to show you didn't actually do it yourself your 'god test' is just a mind-test that you decided on your own.
Let's take two test's, one is run through all hashes in the black-chain links and try them as 'used addresses', then hash all the rainbow tables of all human made words 80gb, you will find 1,000's of used-addresses, in the rainbow, and zero in the hash-links.

Why is this? Because of determinism, and entropy, but mostly entropy the rainbow tables is has low entropy, but the links of all blocks is extreme high entropy.

The argument here was high-entropy could lead to high-value keys, and no it doesn't; on the other hand low-entropy will lead you to +5,000 used-addresses, but sadly all the priv-keys were swept years ago.

Lastly, keep god out of this, he already knows you don't know what you think you know.
