And how can you calculate or guess which letter comes next? There is no way. Hash is only one way and only one piece. I can't say that puzzle 66 randomly starts at 3C that easy
I’m not guessing. All ranges will be accounted for, but if someone thinks the key lies in 1, 2, 3, etc ranges. They can focus their firepower in that range. But at least half of work in every range will be good and help towards the private key. And all of the work in the range where the key does lie, will be good.

What about random kangaroos? Is it worth the thought?
Kangaroos are random in nature. Random starting point then they follow a jump path or you can reset them to another random starting point after they find a DP (distinguished point).

I (and whoever else joins in my race) will be using kangaroo however, I am using some other tools to shorten the range. Every little bit helps lol
