PS. BlackHatCoiner I think you don't understand the curve. it is not receipt , it is math and you can do what you want with curve.
Look, I'm not an expert on the elliptic curves. I'm just interested and learn whenever I'm able to. Your way, indeed, works now that I've rethought about k2 being replaced by k1*2. The whole problem occurs when you know nothing for both k and r, but in this case you can find d given that you have one unknown value k and two unknown values r.

(Didn't actually try your equation, but the steps seem fine by me)

I'm gonna be honest, I'm right now not 100% what you are trying to do and what your result tells us, but if you were able to crack the key, you should just show us by moving the funds  Smiley
I don't think that interiawp tries to find the supposedly hidden 3,350 BTC; he/she just experiments with the maths of ECC as I've noticed from other threads.

If I understood OP correctly, this is not a puzzle or challenge created by them, instead they're trying to crack a key and thinking they're very close & encouraging others to find the solution.
OP should at least provide the source of the puzzle, where did he find it, by whom etc.
