Puzzle #66 is not about pattern dudes

is all about logic and hardware power

If you have a bunch of 4090's out there and a optimized software to search it so you are in the game, If no you'll realize that is not simple as you think.

there's no pattern.

I rented 4090s for 2 months. how do you think I lost the $23k?

what I need to know is what you meant by "optimized software"

Because I want to know your definition of searching the range wisely and not considering the speed and time and resources need and amount of investment or capital needed to complete the scan.

and I need to know your calculation for the keys/s and I know the best speed you can get on the 4090s is 5billion keys/s and if you use the keyhunt cuda you can use all the device in a machine to scan the range.

Please explain...

I am still waiting for an explanation for your defined term "optimized software"

The fastest I can achieve on a 14 * 4090 is below

So I want to understand your magic for the defined term optimized software

where did you rent the cards ?

vast.ai

I achieved the same result with 12 devices in a single machine

But the time is still not adding up... if you can do the calculations and also note the costs of renting the machines. you would end up resorting to random generation of at least the 1st 1 to 3 characters because scanning all that range from 20 to wherever you think the key would be doesn't cost pennies

but the 1s and 0s scanning can assure you you scanned all the ranges covering that specifically defined bit ranges without worries
and you can just keep doing it over and over again until you find the bit configuration for the specified puzzle you're searching for

I guess that's what James idea trying to tell. Just start to scan from 50-50, 51-49, 52-48 and so on and it will save a lot of time and unnecessary scan from the beginning of useless less likely range.
