welcome 
but don't be too much excited as you'll see that sooner than later you'll be disappointed and stuck, and it could takes another 300 years before we solve it 
but don't be too much excited as you'll see that sooner than later you'll be disappointed and stuck, and it could takes another 300 years before we solve it I am not excited. I am just interested and curious. I will think about it until it isn't fun anymore.

No comment! what a great start!
Making a comment to say no comment... Condescending and passive-aggressive at the same time. Great way to set the tone.

if you look at the ribbons height (long+short) then it makes no sense to exclude the length.
I have not disregarded the ribbon lengths, nor do I assume to have ruled anything out. I am exploring other avenues.

and why do you think that the red flames are the message? you didn't mention any reason for that!
I mentioned that they stick out to me. It is intrinsic with no logic, I give you that. I think the artist wanted attention drawn to them. To elaborate, if the color was only a stylistic choice, I think a less chaotic pattern would be apparent and there would be more balance in the color scheme. There wouldn't be so many groups of consecutive flames of that color.

and the big question is: So What? what's the next step? how you'll use them?!
I think prime numbers are significant. And while I do not know how to interpret them as a clue (or if they even are clues), any observations are worth exploration. Maybe it can inspire others to follow different paths to interpreting the image.

Here i completely disagree with you as you can't divide the board to 4 equal quadrants as you did (its 9*7 board not 8*8 )
In all probability, you are right. However, allowing for overlap it could be divided into quadrants, as I attempted to illustrate in the images I uploaded. I also think it might be the direction to read the bit-streams in the flames.... E.g. the outer rim reads one direction, the inner reads another. I don't know, it was just an idea. I never claimed it was a good one.

i don't think she used only brushes in this painting, there is also a digital work or modification, the painting has two layers, there is another layer (mostly in black colour) under the flames and the board.
I see multiple layers as well, but looking at the high-quality *tif, it looks like the layers are physical medium (paint over paint).

Thank you for your post, but i don't see any of your ideas of much help, no one of your ideas could be a start point to something useful.
Thank you for your reply, but I don't see any of your comments of much help, no one of your condescending remarks ruled out any idea I presented.
Maybe you are right. Maybe you know all of the secrets to this image and for some reason decided not to move the BTC to another address. I doubt it, though. I get the impression that you are nay-saying anything that is outside of the path you think might be correct out of hubris. Either that or you want to demoralize others, throw red herrings, troll, or some combination.
