By the way, and you know why their puzzle addresses were removed from the 161st?
My thought is that this is the limit of public addresses. That is the further search in the theory goes on a circle.
Because all the funds from 161 through 255 were redundant (Bitcoin addresses only use 160 bits) the author of the puzzle moved all the funds from the 160-255 ranged down into the 1-160 range.  It is explained up thread.
Is it? I thought it uses almost 256 bits (the last possible private key is FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFEBAAEDCE6AF48A03BBFD25E8CD0364140)
