if I have a pub key that represents an unknown pk1
pk1=957273957373958372947

my script reduces the bits for example to

pk2=958372947
that is, remove the first 12 numbers for the example.

Among approximately 1500 keys there is one of them true that corresponds, I look for the key by brute force and once I get pk2 it is easy to deduce the private key of pk1

@mcdouglasx: Hey man, please don't be offended by my request, but can you please give me the pubkeys that your script generate out of this pubkey?

You can send me a DM with the results, I'm trying to make a test.

Thanks in advance, cheers!.
