Happy to hear the feedback you guys had and even happier to hear that the UI was sleek -- my job as a software developer focuses on UI/UX, so it was an interesting experiment.

If you guys wanna stick, I will be posting a few ideas about my next riddle here, so I can also get some feedback. I have two prototypes with Bitcoin done, but the next one might be based on the Lightning Network, so that I can distribute more rewards to more players. Make sure to have your Lightning powered wallets ready to receive sats.

I tried a variety of seven letter words first as I mentioned above, as I figured that would have the least number of possibilities. Managed to fit in another couple of words, but nothing that made sense as a "simple sentence". Then I read your bio, and figured that actually we are very similar and you hold in high regard many of the same things I do - I am hugely outspoken on these forums in terms of protecting your privacy and not trusting third parties. So then I went back to the clues, and with Genesis Block in bold I decided to start trying different words from the message within. I tried "bailout" first, but again, couldn't find anything that made sense. So then I tried "banks", which made the next word obviously "are". From there various attempts at "banks are ... enemies", before landing on the right answer.

....

How about the anniversary of this tweet: https://nitter.net/rockerest/status/91885405368098816 Tongue
Or maybe the anniversary of the first bitcoin faucet: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=183.0

I just spent the last few days reading many of your posts and replies. Very interesting and impressive to see, the more I read the happier I was that you took the bounty!

Those two dates sound great, let me see if I can make it on time. BTW do you know those dates off the top of your head? I was thinking of a small project to make a "Bitcoin calendar" where people can see when was the time different events happened. I've seen timelines with years and all but the dates would be cool. Kind of like calendars with the name of saints but instead with bitcoin events, if you're interested let me know. No bounty on this one probably, just a cool project to support historical pieces of information.
