Happy New Year everyone. I only read here but didn’t write anything.

What did I find? I found a number that, if subtracted or added to the public key. Returns the same public key, regardless of whether the private key is large or small. A number was also found that, if subtracted or added to the public key, produces a key that is not on the curve.

I don't know to be honest. Has anyone found this already or not? But I’m still deciding what to do with it next. Because, in my opinion, this is the vulnerability of the curve. I've been working on the puzzle for 2 weeks. So far I've only found this. Sorry for broken English. I wrote through a translator.

No key on the curve? If something sticks out of your pants, the elastic band from your panties will cut it to the required length, dividing by modulo. And the key will be within the curve  Grin
